I love the huge medical instruments they have on display. I found the story of Dr. Long interesting, as well as the details about saving his original spot on the town square. But my favorite part of all is the recreated General Store downstairs. Sometimes they sponsor a muisical concert there! That was a fun visit!

I was so excited when they opened the covered bridge, to cars and foot traffic. This park is great for bicycling, visiting the historic bldgs that were moved here, challenge putt putt, and sliding down the rocks into the moving river, as we well as traditional picnics and pavilions. I've seen people fish in the calmer water above, but I don't know how they did.

Every time you go you can't see anything that you are interested in due to rude people crowding around you pushing and shoving. All the real vendors have just left because of the rude behavior of the visitors and of some of the other vendors. Bad idea to visit this place.

One of my favorite shopping centers. So clean, such a great group of stores. There is something for everyone here. Salesforce is so friendly in every store I have been in and it you become a member of their shopping club, you get great coupons and specials. For buying a $50 gift card, I received a free $20 gift card. The staff at the welcome center is top notch.
5. Fort Yargo State Park

Reviewed By RebeccaMinNJ - NJ
Our extended family visited Fort Yargo State Park, paying just 5$ total to enter since we drove together in a minivan. We had our picnic supplies and ate down by the lake. The water was just perfect for swimming. Even though it was very hot, the beach/swimming area wasn't very crowded and was rather clean. The kids tried stand-up paddle boards (rented at a very reasonable 10.70 per hour), while the adults and youngest kid rented a paddleboat (10.70 for the boat). No motorboats in the water, so it was nice and calm. Kayaks and canoes are available to rent as well. There's hiking, mini-golf, disc golf, camping, and other activities on site, but we just stayed in or near the lake. If we're back in the area, we'd certainly return here and recommend it to others.

I stopped by here as part of the Jackson County Heritage Trail Geo-tour. I loved the tranquility and we enjoyed walking by the buildings. It was extremely peaceful here and I would never have known about it if it weren't for geocaching and the county's excellent tour.
My little one loved playing in the sawdust in front of the shed!

This was my first time doing an escape room and I was NOT disappointed! The room was super cool and realistic, very professionally done. The theme for my particular room was very intricate and planned out. It was lots of fun and definitely worth the money! And you get a sticker if you escaped. A must do!
