Very entertaining! Great talent, beautiful harmonies. The show moved along and the performers all complimented one another with equal talent. The accompanying musicians were all top notch. The theater itself is cozy with interesting memorabilia, ample restrooms and reasonably comfortable seating. We will be returning and I’d highly recommend to others.

Centerfire Shooting Range is one of the best indoor ranges. They have everything you need imaginable, from rentals, targets, ammo, to shooting classes if you need one. The range is super clean and the employees and owners are super friendly !

Very nice. A great place to learn about an earlier life in Olathe and how important Olathe was to the development of the WEST. Take your time to check out the museum and read the Captions of the displays. Tour the house and barn areas as well. Very Nice!!

Ernie Miller Nature Center

Reviewed By Toyota1994 - Chicago, United States

I visited Ernie Miller Nature Park the second time for hiking knowing that the Visitor Center would closed during the Lockdown. I hiked the about- a-mile plus long South Trail and had a good work out. Be aware that most of the trail is dirt and rocky, so it could be slippery under wet conditions. The trail crosses a little creek a couple of times, but the crossings were easy to get across. The Prairie grass field is a special attraction. I have toured the Visitor Center before and it is worth a visit.
