  • This is a truly outstanding museum. If you grew up around lakes and boats, it is fun to see everything again. If not, the depth of the well-displayed collection is a great way to learn the history...

  • A nice history of the region with a great collection of vintage boats, motors, and fishing lures. The outside garden was beautiful and peaceful.

  • Very well done with amazing displays and people who know all about the items there. And they really enjoy telling you about it all.
  • Cute place. Not huge. Family ticket price is decent but expensive for individuals. It looked lounge they were setting up for a wedding, the gardens are very pretty.
