We spent about $90 to visit Children's Museum of Evansville and it honestly felt like a complete…read morewaste of time and money. So many exhibits were broken or not working that my 7-year-old was constantly running up to something, pressing buttons, and... nothing. The place could be really cool if everything actually functioned, but it just doesn't. On top of that, there were employees cleaning in the "Rainbow Bistro" area for almost an hour, so she couldn't even play in there the entire time we were on that floor. For a children's museum that charges this much, I expected working exhibits and more consideration for the kids who are there to play. I really hope they put more effort into maintaining and fixing the exhibits instead of letting everything fall into disrepair. We won't be back unless things improve.

So I wanted to be optimistic, because I fully support educational places of play. But this place…read morewas straight up disappointing. We paid $60 for a family of 5. There are three levels in the museum with 10+ exhibits. Hardly any of them were fully functional. There was a graffiti wall in "fantastic plastic" exhibit that had 3 dry erase markers. 2 were dried up. So one marker was being shared by 4 kids. There was a Mark Twain bust that was supposed to record a small story, based on several words that you could choose, and then play it back to you. The record function did not work. My kids were excited about the quack factory exhibit, with rubber duckies/balls you would launch down tubes to a wet deck below. Nothing in the 2nd floor floor extension of this exhibit was working. They couldn't use it. We went to the ground level of the exhibit, the wet deck - but down there, the hot air balloon exhibit, which used heat to make a model hot air balloon rise, was non-functional. The portion that makes water vapor was non-functional. On the second floor, there is an "art maker" room with 3-D printers, like 6 of them. Only 2 were functional. The employee there was very apologetic and kind, but it was just one more thing. The 5th street theater portion on the second floor wasn't functioning properly. There is also a balance challenge on the second floor that is broken. There are some "piano stairs" coming down from second level to first that are out. The vending machine in the lobby was broken. The place was pretty clean, and not very crowded, which was nice- but I was honestly very sadly surprised. The cost of this experience just isn't justified. We won't be back.

This is an absolute hidden gem for history and architecture lovers in Evansville!!…read more Currently, they are open 11-4 Tuesday-Saturday. Check the website or call to get the most up-to-date hours. Tours start at the top of the hour, so make sure you plan to show up at the right time. Tours start from the carriage house next to the home - press the door bell or knock in order to be let in. Admission costs $10 for adults. Our tour guide Renee was fantastic! She shared tons of details on the history of the family as well as the architecture and decor of the house! She was a wealth of information and could answer all questions! This is probably the most detailed historical home tour that I have been on! You typically visit all 3 floors of the home, but we missed out on the basement due to time constraints. Well worth the cost of admission! Highly recommend visiting between Thanksgiving and New Years to see the home decorated magnificently for Christmas!

The phone message of the site says the hours are 9-5, but we checked the online site which said 10-5. We were at the locked gates at 9:58. Nobody ever showed up. We called all the phone numbers and left messages, emailed their contact, AND messaged the "Friends of Angel Mounds". We saw a black truck in the lot, worried that the site rep had a medical issue, so pushed the gate open since it wasn't locked. Didn't see anyone in distress, so we didn't have to call 911. We have a 10 hour drive so got back on the road now, after waiting 45 minutes to see if someone would show up for work today. We hope everyone is all right. We'll try again next year.

I also make it a point to visit presidential libraries, national historic sites, etc. I've seen DOZENS of locations now, and I can honestly say Grouseland is - by far - one of the most impressive locations I've visited. The amount of authentic items dating back to William Henry Harrison is jaw dropping! Additionally, the collection of items not necessarily related to Harrison are breathtaking. For example, they own an impressive collection of real signatures as far back as Adams, Madison, and John Quincy Adams (to name just a few). The staff was fantastic. The day I visited, their computer system was down and they were unable to run my card for the entry fee. No matter, they let me get back with them later. Their volunteers are knowledgeable about their collections and items within the home. Can't say enough about this "diamond in the rough" presidential history site. I was truly blown away...

Frankly, this museum is much nicer, informative, and engaging than it has any right to be. The very friendly docent on duty welcomed us warmly into the lobby and, after we paid our small admission fee, she took us through everything we needed to know about accessing the audio tour, the basics of the exhibits and I'm sure anything else that we had wanted to know. She was very friendly. The exhibits wind through the building with an early focus on the founding of the town. The major portions of the museum, however, are devoted to the flashier aspects that really shine of this small burg in the Midwest: the circus and laxative waters! Massive exhibits are devoted to the sulfur water that was an early cure-all which gave rise to the large spas that drove tourism to town. The most square footage is devoted to the huge, massive, enormous circus in miniature. My partner is all about miniatures and was totally engrossed in this display. And rightfully so; it is very impressive! Everything was above average for cleanliness, order, and functionality; which, if you've visited other small-town museums, you know isn't always the case. I left having a much greater appreciation for the town and its history!
