You would not expect such a museum to be in the lower level of Ferris State University's Library (FLITE Library), but it is there and it is well worth a visit. The museum is a self-guided tour that includes a timeline from the beginning slavery to the present time (actually outside of the library so you can visit this part when the museum is closed). The actual museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from noon until 5:00 p.m. and includes a variety of pieces from the Jim Crow era and pieces from more recent times. I think everyone should visit this museum and I'm amazed that it isn't more well known. The FLITE Library is at the main entrance to Ferris State University so is very easy to find. There is nearby metered parking available. The museum is free but accepts donations. No photography allowed.

This is an awesome place for a bike ride or long stroll along the river... Very clean and friendly. The community is fortunate to have this at our disposal.

My husband and I stopped there for lunch today. He had a Super Yooper burger and I had the Garden, Classic Schuburger. They were both awesome! The sweet potato fries were phenomenal and the pub fries were great too. We will definitely be back soon!!!!!!

We really enjoy this state park. It's a rustic state park but has water to boat or swim, trails to walk or biking. We typically come here about 1-2 times a year.
