Saw the park while visiting Witch's Hat Depot Museum. They're right next to each other. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. It includes the schoolhouse, church, gazebo and bell. Also a war memorial in front at the Street. Unpaved ground to get between them all, so be careful. Lots of history between the buildings. Must see. No fee to tour.

I called hoping to find out if we can go inside. Linda and her husband were so super nice in giving us a tour. She was thorough, patient and friendly. She explained literally everything on the grounds and even took photos of us. It is a beautiful museum with quite a history. The grounds are beautiful from the landscaping to the other buildings (gazebo, schoolhouse and church). The caboose is cute and a great spot for some photos inside and out. The parking lot is paved but majority of the grounds is not paved. It's pretty quick to walk through but a beautiful walk. Not a ton of parking but enough. They have souvenirs on the top floor to purchase from shirts to train conductor hats, from tree ornaments to mugs, from jump ropes to pencils. I don't think anything was over $20. Bottom floor was cool heirlooms to purchase but way more expensive like the record player for $150. Highly recommend.

Fun and yummy place to go for cider, doughnuts, and kid friendly entertainment. Great for apple picking! This is a popular spot, so try to come during the week if possible. Weekends can be crowded.

This is a beautiful memorial and park honoring Michigan war dogs, service dogs, and other beloved pets. It is small so it doesn't take much time for a short visit, but it is beautifully cared for and a very touching experience. If you are a dog lover and in the area, I definitely recommend stopping by for a visit and leaving a donation if you are able.

Leave your tots at home, too many toddlers and children taking up seats that Serious beer drinkers could have, it gets very crowded at times, the staff is always great and knowledgeable about the rotating taps. There is only popcorn, so bring your own, or order in food.
