Imagine seeing an 18th century sailing ship, complete with deck nails and rigging, just as it must have appeared over 200 years ago. Now imagine this ship is only 4 feet long. This is the magic of the museum known as "Blue Water Majesty." All models are exact duplicates of their full grown sisters and are made from copies of the original blue prints.

The HOF was great. There’s plenty of staff to direct you around, great exhibits and displays. Everything flowed smoothly and things were nicely explained. Great to see the busts of the enshrined and the uniforms of so many great players. Close parking was a plus too. The Joe Namath interactive movie in the locker room with Coach Halas and Coach Lombardi was just awesome and really well made.

I went there last week with my friend. So much to see other than the cars. Very friendly staff, especially Char, she is so friendly and very knowledgeable about her cars,and Canton's history. She could truly write a book, and should.

Went to see 1917 after finding out that they were showing the film. What a great place to see a movie! First you get entertained by one of the few remaining Kilgen organs and the only one in it's original setting! Great to hear some of the music it creates. Movie was great and seeing it on a HUGE screen with a great sound system was a treat, Nice surroundings, not crowded, reasonably priced and had all of the amenities of any theater without the inflated costs!
