Neat way to learn the history of the area, and how the Native Americans used the land. Great display on ancient Native artifacts and info.
We only visited the outdoor village as the museum was off limits due to flooding. The admission fee was reduced (5 dollars for adults), but the visit was worth it as a means to understand about how the native people lived. Liked the long house. My daughter liked the corn grinding shack.Some of the exhibits are in need of some attention. In addition, the ground inside the village needs a bit of care: simple stuff like cutting away the weeds.
If you like local history you will love this. And the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Good information.
A great museum and first nations experience but in dire need of a cash injection to improve the museum, literature and even the facilities. Couldl be so much better
Enjoyed a morning visiting this museum. We were only visiting Midland for 3 nights but would recommend a visit to this spot to discover some interesting history of the area. Staff were helpful & we thoughtit good value for money.
I think it's an awesome museum and I appreciate what it brings to our community. My child had a great time at the day camp this summer and we will be returning again this summer. The staff is incredible and fun.
A really good museum, well worth a trip. The outdoor Huron village recreation was excellent (although I wish they had plaques to tell you what you were seeing instead of a handout which was sometimes hard to figure out). The indoor museum had a wonderful exhibit of paintings plus a large and very fascinating collection of local historical artifacts. My husband enjoyed the shipping and military sections, while I was very taken with the household and clothing exhibits. Also a large collection of Huron/Ojibwa artifacts and information on the archeological history. Nice gift shop, too. Excellent place.
The museum has a nice mix of artifacts, photos and local art. You learn alot about the history of the area.
What a nice surprise to discover paintings from members of the famous Group of Seven !Numerous original artefacts : an excellent way to learn about this historical region.
Some very interesting aboriginal and other local artifacts objects and art. Not very well maintained, uncared for museum. Lights out on some displays, signage blocking a display or one upside down, dust on items,
