Great experience today with Captain Aaron and his son Mississippi... I mean, River. LOL…read more Aaron was friendly, had tons of information and was great with everyone on board, from 8 to 80. He shared all sorts of great information and even let my niece drive the boat for a few minutes. She LOVED that so much. Great value for your dollar as well. Definitely check out Captain Aaron and you might just end up with a fun selfie on your phone too.

Fantastic experience. Lots of interesting information and fun. Boat is comfortable and snacks and…read moredrinks for sale.

So, the house, what you can see of it: 5 stars. It's gorgeous and everything is well preserved…read more Why the 2 stars though? Three reasons: 1. I would post pics showing what it looks like but no photography is allowed. I thought the one woman was going to bat my phone out of my hand when I took it out to take a pic. It is 2019; 80 year old grandmothers have smartphones with cameras. If it's about flash photography, say so and let me take pics without the flash. Otherwise, a restriction on photography gets you an immediate downvote in my book. 2. You see three rooms and you can't even go in and look around, it's all roped off. 3. None of the guides knew anything beyond their script. Anytime anyone asked a question they said they didn't know the answer. Why are you working here if you don't know half the questions people are asking? Beautiful house, what you can see of it. I got in free with a tour but based on my time there today would never pay to go inside.

I took my son and grandson on a guided catfish trip with Alex from River Bent outfitters and we had…read morean absolute great time. We drove down from Tomahawk and were able to land 10 fish highlighted by a 20-12 lb and 13-3 lb Flathead and a monster 14-14 lb Channel. It was a trip none of us will ever forget. Alex was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly and kept the boys entertained the entire night, I would defiantly recommend River Bent Outfitters and we plan on going again in the near future.

This is one of my favorite museums in the state, I love the art here so much. The museum is right…read moreon the river, has a nice coffee bar with light fare inside, cool gift shop, and lots of exhibits. It will take you about an hour to check everything out, maybe a bit more if you do the scavenger hunt, which I did alongside my kiddo. The interactive exhibits were great as well, and they do a great job of teaching you about environmental issues plaguing our water systems and use art to do it in a way that conveys a great message. Highly recommended to pop in when you are nearby!

On a recent trip to the area, my friend and I decided to check out this museum. Located on a…read morepeaceful stretch of the Mississippi, there's a beautiful promenade area along the river that would be perfect for relaxing if you find yourself with time to spare. We arrived about an hour before closing and despite having to visit at a fast clip, I'm so glad we added this to our agenda. Most of the rooms contain visiting exhibits, and my favorites this time included the up-cycled plastic art and the large canvas from the 19th century depicting whaling that is visiting. If you're in Winona, this museum is a must-add to your places to visit list!

It is a real historic treasure, and the 20 minute video that precedes your self - guided tour is equal parts delightful and hokey.

When my Polish mother lived up North, she loved visiting this museum as she loves getting in touch…read morewith her Polish heritage. She now lives in Texas, so she doesn't get to visit, so I did the next best thing, and ordered some Christmas gifts from this museum. We had a mix up, and stuff happens, especially during a pandemic, so after not receiving the package after the scheduled arrival, they informed me it got lost in shipment. So they made it right and, in fact, they made it better! I can't wait to give these gifts to my mother on Christmas! Museums don't specialize in customer service like other establishments do, so you wouldn't expect a museum to excel at customer service, but this museum rocks at customer service! Keep it up!

The La Crosse childrens museum is located in downtown La Crosse. It is filled with lots of fun and…read moreeducational things for kids. When we went there was a Kwik Trip replica, large fire truck, dinosaur maze, climbing pads, water table, train tracksand much more. It costs 8 dollars per person when visiting but on Sundays it is 7 dollars, and children 12 months and under are free. They also have memberships available.

This is a small one-room museum on Main Street, which opened in Nov. 2020. (Don't go to the address…read moreon West Street unless you're planning to do research in the archives.) $5 is a bit steep, though perhaps I was spoiled by an excellent museum I'd visited earlier today for the same price. There is a collection of buttons from Oktoberfest, with two costumes from the 1960s; a small but interesting exhibit on the Ho-Chunk (Hoocak), which focused on arts and crafts; some artifacts from the War Eagle shipwreck (the only underwater location on the National Register of Historic Places that I'm aware of), and a few other odds and ends, including an exhibit on "pearl" buttons made from shells, a "combination" a lady would wear under her corset (they were made locally), and a few Hmong items, including a beautiful detailed aluminum necklace. I didn't really come away feeling I'd learned about the history of La Crosse, but this certainly painted in some details.

My wife and I had to take a business / pleasure trip to Kenya and contacted Fawn to help us with our details. To be clear - I use Expedia and other travel applications and consider myself experienced in finding good deals. Well, Fawn matched or beat everything I found on line (after hours of work), and even set up our Safari in perfect detail. I am all about communication. When I send an email or place a call - I expect a reply as soon as possible... Fawn was always there to answer our questions (no matter how small) and when she did not have the answer at hand - she got back to us with our answers that day. I highly recommend Driftless Travel to anyone that wants a good deal with someone who genuinely cares about their clients. We will use her again for our next trip!
