The Dentzel Antique Carousel at Highland Park 1802 Carousel Drive, Meridian, MS 39307

"We thought it would not be open due to the reviews. We were blessed because it was open and we got to ride it. $1.00 a person. Wow. It is really nice and the two ladies working there were super nice. This carousel really moves so hold on."

"If you haven't been here, you need to come. Stepping inside, I was hit with the scent of childhood, carefree days and happier times. We rode the carousel twice!"

"Had our son's birthday party here a few weeks ago and was really impressed! The staff was so friendly and helpful and the kids were able to ride the carousel more than once. They provided me with an itinerary of sorts so I was able to keep everything running smoothly and on time, which was super helpful! There's plenty of room to set up and decorate and still have ample space for the kids to run and play. The carousel goes a little faster than I remember, but the kids didn't seem to mind!"

"On our way to vacation in Gulf Shores from Missouri, we stopped here so my daughter could ride on the carousel that my brother rode on 36 years ago, when he was just a baby. We were hurrying to get here before they closed, and barely made it by 4:30ish, unfortunately, when we got here tho, the carousel had been broke down for a couple of weeks and won't be up and running for awhile longer. However, the ladies working here are super sweet and friendly, they even let us go inside and take pictures, and my daughter got to sit on several of the different animals, so she still got to have fun. Then as we were leaving, we asked how much the cotton candy was, and they just let us have some, and even gave my daughter some other goodies, so I'm still giving them 5-stars because it's a neat place to see and the ladies working here are excellent."
