"Great organization and brings accessibility to outdoor education involvement in the region! Lots of events year-round! Always something for everyone and any age to learn about their environment."

"Love the variety of events and that they are all over the County!"

"15/10 experience having our wedding at the Lussier Family Heritage Center! This venue is a hidden gem and is, hands down, the most reasonably priced venue for an entire weekend's reservation that you will find anywhere in the Madison area wedding scene! Merijoy and the LFHC staff were incredibly professional and helpful in the days and weeks leading up to our event. We hosted ~140 guests for our wedding here in June 2023 and would pick this venue a thousand times over again; beautiful setting, gorgeous views, flexible decorating and vendor options, and incredibly kind and helpful staff. We were so thankful to have the facilities for the entire weekend to be able to decorate and tear down on our own time without stressing about having to be in and out in a matter of hours on the day of our wedding. We were blown away by the natural outdoor beauty and the recent updates to the Heritage Center have created a beautiful indoor ambiance that shines even without tons of wedding decorations. We held our ceremony under the gorgeous 100-year-old oak tree and our families are still talking about how magical it was nearly a month later. We loved having the option to personalize a brick with our names in the walkway that we can visit for years to come. HUGE plus to have an outdoor venue that was ALSO wheelchair accessible with private areas for nursing moms, tons of activities for little ones, a fire pit, comfortable areas for guests to sit and catch up, and plenty of hotels nearby. We had the relaxed, family-centered wedding of our dreams at LFHC and would recommend to any couple looking for a relaxing, beautiful atmosphere in the Madison area!

"My husband and I got married here in June of this year, and it was everything I wanted in a venue! The indoor and outdoor spaces were both totally great! We had our cocktail hour on the back patio, used the room upstairs for the reception, and the entrance area made a great space for the bar/buffet tables. The groomsmen also used the unoccupied area downstairs for getting ready, and the wedding party was able to hang out in that space while waiting for the ceremony, etc. We were looking for affordability, so we did the 1 day rental. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get in for decorating until the late morning, and we only had about an hour for cleanup after the reception. We had a ton of friends and family who helped us with decorating and cleanup, but without all that help it would not be possible to prepare the space/cleanup with the one day rental. Overall, it's a beautiful space and is relatively affordable, you just have to make plans to do decoration/cleanup yourselves."

"Great time! Each station at the harvest moon party was fun, and informative. Really enjoyed all of the animals near the end (the falcon was near the beginning, beautiful and majestic), as did the kids that came with me. The band by the fire was awesome! It's not too often you see a stand up bass player. Highly suggest you visit this park, it's very well kept."
