My recent visit to the Spartanburg location was disappointing While I have always enjoyed my…read moremembership at the Greenville location, my experience at this site was unfortunately disappointing. The treatment I received at the front desk was quite upsetting The staff member was rude and made several snarky comments, including negative remarks about the Greenville museum. while the layout is great and I enjoyed the space, there were several issues with upkeep. Many of the exhibits--specifically the trains, the cars, and the turtle operating station--appear old and worn. Additionally, the story nook on the lower level was a mess upon our arrival, and there was a noticeable odor in the building. While I appreciated that the museum was not overcrowded, the lack of cleanliness and the poor staff attitude were significant drawbacks to our visit. Bring your own hand sanitizer as they have hand sanitizing stations they're not refilled or they were not filled when we were there, which is a sign of no upkeep

This is a much smaller location which I like especially nice you have nice kids. I had a coupon…read morefrom Park Hop that said I would get $2 off up to 4 admissions. I gave the girl at the front desk my coupon and she acted like she didn't know what it was. She went to the back to ask and they confirmed that it was indeed legit. I noticed my total was more than expected and I asked her if she took off the coupon. She said she did for one person. I told her it would be for up to 4 people. She told me no. I asked her to check the coupon again and she saw what it said and "huffed" and went back to ask again. I honestly thought it was pretty rude! They have two stories. It's not a ton to do but my kids were entertained. They were more entertained downstairs with the water table more than upstairs. The bathrooms were clean. There were a lot of spots to do pretend play as well. Parking is on the street if you can find one or in the free lot across the street.

The people who care for the grounds are very dedicated, and it shows in their smiles. When they talk to you, they light up with pride. It was the best day I have had since moving to Spratsnburg, SC.

Great time at our first Oyster roast at the Windy Hill Orchard & Cidery! Oysters were steamed by…read moreSaltwater Markets and they did a great job of bringing fresh hot oysters out every half hour to all of the tables. Each standing table also had an empty tray to discard shells. Ample supplies were on hand - shuckers, gloves, paper towels, hot sauces, cocktail sauce, and saltines. Beverages were available for purchase - a selection of ciders and wine, soft drinks and bottled water. Many of their regular menu options are not served in the winter, but we find that to be a good reason to go back during peak season. All service was self service - walk up to the bar or walk over to find any oyster shucking supplies you may need. Souvenir glasses were also available. The staff who checked us in on arrival were kind enough to suggest we take those after our feast to avoid having to keep track of a pint glass while focused on our oyster shucking. A couple of fire pit spots were available and there were picnic tables under a covered shelter set up in the event that inclement weather moved in. It is truly a Windy hill - it's always windy when we are here and this event was no different. Live music was on hand - a solo artist with guitar whose name I didn't catch, but he was very talented and did a great job. He played mostly cover music from under the covered shelter area. Parking does involve a walk if you're not one of the very first to arrive. That walk is down a gravel path a little ways up the hill and not a great fit for wheel chairs or those who with mobility challenges. It would not be hard to drop someone off though near the front, then go park down the street and around the corner.

This was my first visit to Windy Hill. The place is really great. They have bagged apples, cider,…read morebottled hard cider, apple pies, freshly made apple cider donuts (plain or cinnamon sugar), and a hard cider bar. The orchard wasn't open for picking, but it was a beautiful day, so there were lots of picnic tables to sit and relax. After we shopped, we sat and enjoyed a donut and the outside. We arrived right as they opened on a Sunday, but it got very busy with families, small groups, dogs, and children after we arrived. This is a very family friendly spot, lots of parking, and a good amount of apple treats to enjoy. We had a nice time, and since it is only 1 hour from Charlotte area, will definitely go back again.

It was just cooked rice with a little seasoning. One of my friends ordered the chicken tortilla soup and when she got it, it was broth with some tortillas in it. My other friend ordered a steak and mashed potatoes. She said the steak was fine but the mashed potatoes tasted like dirty potatoes skins. I think the need to find a new chef. I expected good southern food since we were in the south. Disappointing. I wish we had looked around at our other options before we settled on this restaurant.

Not to mention cocktails from their distillery selection if you want something other than wine (and I must say, they are amazingly concocted). Nice big patio with live music on occasion plus special events so check their fb page. Staff is wonderfully friendly and a pleasure to chat with! They have a permanent food truck which is dishing out pizzas and specialty items like deep fried corn cobs and loaded bar chips. Very reasonably priced all around and plenty of parking both in front and out back. So glad this spot is running the way it is - tell your friends, bring your family and enjoy a nice day at the winery.

In the fall, there's a Livermush Festival (Mush, Music and Mutts) that is combined with a costume parade for children and dogs/pets. At Christmas time, there's a tree lighting with music and carriage rides. And that's just the beginning. Check out their website to see all of the upcoming events that they support.
