If you enjoy films you will love watching them at Sperry’s Moviehouse. Sperrys is located downtown Port Huron near a few local restaurants. There is street parking and a parking lot so it is very convenient. The service here is excellent and it is so nice to see people happy at work. This is very reminiscent to the VIP cinemas in Toronto. The theatres are small creating an intimate and personal viewing experience. The seats are super comfy and row B seats in each theatre have heated seats. I personally am indifferent to the massage feature embedded in the seats. I expected it to feel like spa chairs with the kneading option but the only available option was a vibration type massage. This can be a little distracting if your vibration isn’t on but the person next to you is - as you can hear the movements from their chair. The sound quality within the theatre was perfect - not too loud. There is also a restaurant located here and I am excited to return and try the dining.

6. Thomas Edison Depot Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 91 reviews

Thomas Edison grew up in Port Huron. Most people know of his early life here from the 1940 Mickey Rooney biopic. He really did print and sell newspapers on the train that ran between Port Huron and Detroit, also did chemistry experiments in the baggage car of that train, became a telegrapher for the railroad, etc. This museum covers all of this and also his later triumphs as an inventor. There is even extensive coverage of the world premiere of the Mickey Rooney movie that was held in Port Huron. The museum itself is very well conceived and executed providing many artifacts of Edison and his inventions, ephemera, photos, and information panels and multimedia displays. We got there first thing in the morning and struck up a conversation with the very enthusiastic and knowledgeable museum curator (a self-professed Edison junkie) who took us on a private tour of the museum's exhibits for the better part of an hour. Overall, we probably spent between 90 minutes and a couple hours here. Adult admission is $10, but we opted for the $35 passport that covers this museum, the lightship Huron, the Fort Gratiot lighthouse, and Carnegie library museum in Port Huron. Of the four attractions, we have to say that we thought this was by far the best of the lot in terms of amount of information imparted and the professionalism of the presentation.

The “BLUE WATER BRIDGE”, is a busy international border crossing between the US and Canada. The massive architecture of the “Blue Water Bridge” acts as the main focal point. The blue waters of Lake Huron and the clean, swift currents of the St. Clair River, provides enough composition to make this a masterpiece for the Port Huron, Michigan and Sarnia, Ontario landscape and skyline’s. It provides excellent photo opportunities and is a marvel to sit and gaze at.

Just imagine ice harvesting was one of the ten largest industries in the U.S. at one time. The Knowlton's Ice Museum of North America has one of the largest collections anywhere of ice tools and implements from the 1800's to the early 1900's. From old ice picks to the horse drawn ice wagons you will see history brought to life!

We love spending an hour or so at this Maritime Center. It has the Riverwalk along it, they have a farmers market on Saturdays. A huge parking lot. A snack bar, coffee shop. Its a great place to get out of the house, and learn a little Great Lakes history.
