Went on a field trip with my sons headstart class. The guides made it fun for the children to learn. We got to explore the fields while staying on the path we learn a lot. While there the kids found a pray mantic egg sac and we learned that houndred of pray mantis hatch from it. Photo of the fish bowl

Thank you to Katlynn who gave my son a sensory bag for his visit. You couldn’t have been more welcoming! My son, who has autism, came to ride the elevator but we got to meet Picasso, the turtle. We stayed longer than i anticipated and we really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks again to Katlynn, who made our visit perfect!

A beautiful space for a wedding. A few locations for a ceremony outdoors with lots of natural greenery and the reception space. I have done a 200 person wedding here but I would say 150 max to be comfortable. There is an outdoor patio with cocktail tables and chairs. We coordinate, design and cater a lot of weddings here.

★★★★★Carson Bauer

We had our wedding here and it was an incredible experience, staff was very friendly and professional Plus the venue and grounds are beautiful. It rained a little bit just before our ceremony started and the staff was quickly out there drying the chairs off. They also had a golf cart for our elderly family members who took them down to the ceremony and back up. The price was unbeatable and we highly recommend!

OMG! Breathtaking Museum!! Just Stellar and fully interactive! We were underground in the tunnel underneath the pond. One of a kind experience. You can see the dome when you overlook the pond outside!!!
