“One of the coolest attractions! Very different, unique.”

• Unique.
• Dirty, seemingly unsafe and not well marked.

“The City Museum is unlike any museum I've ever visited. It is eclectic and whimsical - but appears to be managed by amateurs. It offers playground like structures for children. However, one of the scariest aspects of the museum was sheer visibility - should your child explore a tunnel or cave, there is no way for an adult to maintain visual contact at all times. By making some simple changes - cleaning, safety measures, clear sign age, better adult supervisory access and & escape routes& for children from tricky passages, this could be a really neat place.”

• The old Spaghetti factory was delicious and priced well for lunch.
• Don't go on Monday. Trash overflowing and smelly.

“It must have been a busy weekend because the place was overflowing with trash. Quite smelly. There was a decent spot to take pictures of the riverfront, an overlook that doubles as a parking area. Many shops were closed on Monday so sort of disappointing. We had lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory. We had to wait about a half hour or so to be seated but it was well worth it. The food was great and I was surprised how reasonably priced it was. The restaurant is very nicely decorated with stained glass and antiques all around. I would highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. Parking nearby was five dollars.”

• Fun place to climb, crawl, and explore.
• The museum needs a better toddler area, more safe for actual toddlers.

“I have known about the City Museum for nearly ten years now and had heard it was like an indoor playground for kids. What an enormous understatement. We went there today and found it to be an amazing indoor and outdoor playground for adults as well as kids. If you always liked climbing trees, buildings, etc., crawling under and around various places, and just actively exploring new places: you will love the City Museum. I would warn: there are a few tight places, high places, and some dark places that might not be fun for everyone. I wouldn't recommend most of the museum for the true toddler set. We ended up carrying our willing (but not yet able) 20 month old around many of the precarious climbing exhibits/slides/etc. Go with children old enough to climb and run safely with supervision.”
