I would highly recommend visiting this place regardless of your religious beliefs. I think this has…read moregot to be one of the best tours I have been on which is kind of weird to say. But actually really enjoyed my time here. Here are my favorite bits: - The tour guides were extremely knowledgeable of the place. Definitely can learn a lot not just about the museum but about Mormon-ism as a whole. - I appreciate the amount of storytelling there was throughout the tour. It almost felt like you were in the same room when Joseph Smith passed away. - I appreciate that the tours were extremely small, so it was more intimate that way. Overall, not a bad place to go if you're stopping by Carthage. Definitely helps you get a good understanding on why Carthage came to be on the map.

I first visited the Carthage Jail in 1982, soon after I joined the Church of Jesus Christ of…read moreLatter-day Saints. It strengthened my testimony and still today. Visiting Carthage Jail can be sad, because it's where Joseph and Hyrum Smith were martyred. But, I'm grateful for the opportunity to remember the great lives they lived and the contributions to the salvation of mankind they made. To quote John Taylor, "They lived great..." I'm thankful for all of the blessings that I enjoy today because of them. The Church of Jeuss Christ of Latter-day Saints has taken extraordinary care of the site. The missionaries at the site are wonderful and give complimentary tours. The history of the site is well worth a visit.

I read the menu wrong because when I saw "grilled chicken wrap" I thought it was grilled chicken that was in a cold wrap. Especially because it had lettuce. But it is apparently a chicken wrap that is grilled like a panini. It was good but the lettuce inside became quite soft being that hot. Not my favorite texture. No sides included in your entrees so $11 seems reasonable for a chicken wrap until you realize that it would be $4 for fries. We paid for a side of fries with the smashburger and it was probably the equivalent of a medium at Wendy's. So not the best value. But the taste was very good. Overall I would eat here again. Service was pretty fast for a Friday lunch.

Autumn Moon Farms is a fall tradition for our family. We've been coming for three years and it's…read morealways a highlight of our autumn festivities. This sweet little family farm is no typical pumpkin patch- but rather a fun filled outdoor play area for the entire family. The farm is located on the edge of Mendon and sprawls across multiple acres. There are dozens of activities with ample space for your kids to run and play. Each year new and different activities are added, while beloved staples return each year. You'll always find a giant jumping blob (my eldest's favorite), a giant tube slide, a corn pit, a haunted maze, a barrel train ride, a peddle bike race track, a zip line, hay bales to climb on, swings in different scenic areas, and apple cider slushies (my favorite!). This year additional activities included outdoor ring toss games, a play kitchen area, a bubble activity center, and vintage-y DIY carnival games. There are many family farms around the Quincy area- but for an entire day of kid-friendly fun Autumn Moon is *the* place to go. My kids absolutely adore this place. Because everything is so well-spaced you can find a private activity for just your family to enjoy or participate in the fun with other families. The entire area is beautifully decorated with pumpkins, hay bales, and mums. Gorgeous large oak trees offer ample shade. It feels like a serene scenic escape for adults, while also acting as a source of nature inspired entertainment for the kids. It's always very clean and well-maintained. There's never annoying loud music; just peaceful nature sounds. The farm is run by a very kind couple who own a house on the land. They've dedicated their time to making their backyard into a autumn oasis and I cannot speak more highly about their efforts. For families with kids, this autumn play ground is a local must-see in September or October.

The owner is super friendly and made sure we had a great time. Was a blast being able to play some of my childhood favorites. I couldn't believe most games were only 25 cents. Typically when you think pizza and arcade you think of chucky cheese and to be honest I think that made my expectations for the pizza to be absolutely terrible. To my surprise it was awesome! The perfect amount of sauce, a light saltiness, herbs and spices you can taste right off the pizza. This thing was packed with flavors. The tables have plenty of red pepper, salt pepper and cheese, and there's even free water. Bathrooms were clean. All in all I'm looking forward to bringing 4 of my friends this Saturday to play some Guantlet! Can't believe this place has been sitting under my nose but happy Keokuk has a great arcade and pizza place!
