    Awesome field trip. The tour guides are amazing. I highly recommend sunwatch. The kids had a wonderful time and learned a lot.

    Historical archeological museum today everyone can learn from. It's a great opportunity for a stay at home moms to bring their kids to have an educational experience. I would highly suggest this museum for home schoolers as well. Perhaps this location would team up with the Tourism Industry for group/corporate events.

    Small museum with outdoor viewing of Indian homes, vegetable garden. Nice walking path in the village. They have a small gift shop with t shirts, books, stuffed animals and more. Plans to spend about an hour and a half here or longer. They also have picnic tables under a pavilion.

    Excellent site to learn about early history of native inhabitants of Ohio. The museum has an excellent 11 minute movie on the history of the site. The representative village has outstanding signage. Small gift in the museum. Picnic tables available. Restrooms on site . Highly recommended .

    Cool little museum and research site. Clerk was knowledgeable and friendly. Gift shop is small with small treasures, bathrooms open to public. There is a video introduction that you can watch if you want to. The indoor museum is informative, but it’s the outside part that’s really cool. Following the path you can see reconstructions of ancient indigenous huts and other small features. Grounds are cleanly kept. Unique recycled tire path is bouncy and fun, but you couldn’t take a wheelchair out on it so that sucks. Besides that, the only other negative is the cost for entry, it’s a little high in my opinion ($7 for adults, $6 for seniors and free for children under 5 I think.) Just think things like this should be on a sliding scale because not everyone has disposable income, but everyone deserves to go to a museum/historic site and learn.
