This was a great find. People were friendly, so many different windmills inside and out. They also had a great train display. And they were gearing up for a Corvette Show.

An incredible museum about a topic I had no idea there was so much history behind. It is souch bigger than I would have ever realized. I just wish I would have had more than an hour to visit. I will be sure to come again and take my time to see everything. The number of items in this museum and the condition of everything is amazing.

Genuinely one of, if not, the most impressive museums I’ve been to. (And I’ve been to quite a few) The art took my breath away, I could spend hours just standing in one spot! Was truly a fantastic experience!

Enjoyed are visit here. It was a quiet day at the museum. Lots to see and read about. Took about an hour to tour. Also enjoyed the train room.

Although there is a fee per person to go inside, there was still plenty of family fun outside. Windmills of all types and sizes as well as a Dutch style windmill and a wind turbine. I've never been so close to one before and was able to hear the blades when I stood beneath it.
