Reviews of Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center
"My Wife and I came in here on 2-17-24 around 12:45. We were coming to get a Veterans Lifetime Park Pass. The two Ladies at the entrance counter were just beyond helpful, it was great to get all of the Info they had to offer and we both really appreciative all of their help and recommendations. They quickly were able to help us get the Pass. Then we walked around not previously knowing all of the great things offered here. Would highly recommend checking this place out, kids will also love stopping in. Highly recommend."
"This is a really good visitor center. If you are going to Apostle Islands or the great lakes, its worth visiting here. We made a detour to go via here when heading south and it was well worth it. Love the tower and the views across the area. There are also a short walk from the visitor center around a lake. Inside there are various displays across multiple floors. Comprehensive information about the area is available, plus the usual shop. There is a lot here and its one of the best visitor centers I have seen, and I have done over 150 National Park sites. I would certainly include this in your route, if you are driving up to Apostle Islands."
"This is the best visitor center I have ever been to by far, and I travel a lot and love visitor centers! When I was there there were several art exhibits- one was woven portraits of women who have fought for clean water all over the world, and the other was an artists painting of native Americans in their pow wow regalia. These were in addition to their historical Great Lake exhibits and ranger programs. They also have a fantastic trail system on the beautiful preserve they sit on. In addition they have a very comfortable theatre and a fantastic educational selection of historical and environmental film library for every age and interest. Because the weather was not conducive to apostle island tours, I actually spent a second day here watching movies.The staff were excellent too and I saw that many people visiting were also impressed."
"Stopped here after hours so didn't get to go inside but what a gorgeous spot. Walking trails, tons of green space and beautiful gardens. Perfect place to take a break and relax for a break during a long road trip."
"Very interesting and informative. Everything from art, to displays, beautifully painted wall murals and information about the northern great lakes. The bonus was the tower, three floor up, with breath taking views. Highly recommend."
