The facility is clean and well kept. Seating is available for 6,100 Winthrop fans and visitors. For a team (the mens') that's only been around since 1978, it's impressive to see 19 banners hanging in the rafters. Tickets are cheap and the seating is spacious. Grab yourself some Papa John's, Chik-fil-a, popcorn and a snowcone before you take a seat.

I graduated from Winthrop University with a degree in web design. I love my time at the University…read moreand the staff was all wonderful. The faculty was really knowledgeable and helpful when needed. Overall I had a very wonderful time at the university. To the other yelpers they're having issues with Winthrop listen up. All universities cost thousands of dollars a year unless it is original or city University. All universities have things like cultural events that are required along with graduation. This is not something unique to Winthrop. I attended coastal Carolina University first before transferring to Winthrop and they had a somewhat similar cultural events type program that you had to finish before graduation. The cultural events are not hard to complete before graduation. If you don't slack off and you attend a couple cultural Events each semester it is plenty easy to get enough for graduation. Winthrop is not a community college nor is UNC Charlotte, nor is university of South Carolina, nor is Clemson. Larger universities like Winthrop have these requirements to graduate. It's what allows students to stand out after completing their degree. If you want to go to class and get a degree and that's all, then you should go to a community or tech school.

My 4 year old got bored pretty quickly. There also just wasn't a lot to do. There is a dress up area, but it only had a few items, same with the kitchen and pirate ship. I have to agree with another reviewer that the staff wasn't friendly. They were more concerned with everything getting cleaned up. iI's a children's museum - there's supposed to be a level of mess, but when a kid puts a doll at the table and then goes to the kitchen area and you put the doll back, maybe think "was that kid getting food to play feed the doll?"and not assume they were leaving it. Also, parents - there's an overpriced gift/toy section in the front that you can't avoid. Bright side - there's some fun lunch and treat spots close by.

I'm not sure that they even like children. When my older children were little, I used to bring them and that staff would interact with the kids and parents. Most of this staff just sits on side, ignoring children and adults. There is one lady, Miss Wendy that all of my kids love, but she's not there very much. They had an event this weekend and I am glad that we went in the afternoon. My friend got turned away in the morning only an hour after they opened. She said that staff very rudely told her that she should have gotten there earlier. Her children were heartbroken. They did have some people, mainly teenagers with volunteer name tags who were very nice. My little adored the older gentleman who played with him. They had the upstairs set up really cute with a Winnie-the-Pooh exhibit. But unfortunately, they said that it would only be there for that day. They had friendly teens in that space playing with the kids. Admission is not worth it, but their membership is a good value because it includes other museums.

It's strawberry season and it has become a tradition we go strawberry picking Mother's Day weekend…read more Cherry Place has been our go to spot. It's a small family farm and they are always super nice. The strawberry fields are well maintained. It's not as large as some other places we've been, but we like that. There were a few muddy spots which was advertised and we had rain recently, but the paths were easy to walk. It was a busy day so they told us we would have to look under leaves to find the ripe berries. We still ended up with 2 lbs of berries and my daughter enjoyed. They tasted delicious, too. It was $4 per pound when we visited and they had jams and other products available. My daughter's favorite part is visiting the animals. They have some chickens and goats that are easy to get to. Sometimes they have corn out you can feed them with or you can bring some food to feed them. There's also a sink to wash hands after. Be careful with your strawberries or take them to the car first. I was taking a photo and a goat started to grab my bucket of strawberries. Lol. We haven't been to their fall event but love the smaller feel for strawberries. They post updates and info on their social media channels.

How in the world they put this together in what is realistically a brick courtyard is pretty clever. Last year's concerts included Bret Michaels, Robert Cray and Marc Cohn.

They also work with the nearby Hampton for "concert" rates. [Review 13025 overall, 342 of 2020.]
