  • So cute and adorable place to visit! Went there with my boyfriend today and it was lovely. I loved how into detail and accurate everything was at this place. I didn’t have a chance to go to the brewery, though, I wouldn’t change anything about todays visit! It’s amazing how much history is preserved here. I will definitely have to go back one day to check out everything else. I also was able to purchase an adorable basket that was handmade there by one of the girls who used to work there. Can’t wait to use it for one of my future picnics. You can use credit cards or cash to purchase anything there.
  • Loved this historical village. To get the most of the experience talk to the tradesmen and women. Don't forget to stop at the general store, they sell lots of vintage products, candies you haven't seen in a long time. Big bonus, they sell the products made the previous day by the tradespeople. Very cool. Handmade note books, handmade tools, pottery, etc.
