Beautiful view of Little York Lake. There's historical pictures on the walls to see what it used to be like that are worth looking at too.

Unbeknownst to us, the production was held in Cortland, at a different venue (it did NOT give an address on the ticket ($24.00)). After making a couple phone calls, we figured out where we needed to be. It was NOT easy to find, but LUCKILY, we made it to the correct venue just in the knick of time. Parking was non-existent, but the nice people at the drug store across the street let us park there. The production was pretty good, including all of the fun antics that normally take place during a Rocky Horrow Picture Show. The whole thing lasted about 90 minutes.

Being a nonprofit theater this movie celebrates movies with decals and memorabilia. Cinemapolis contributes to the importance to the local arts scene. Upon entering Cinemapolis, we can feel the artsy and quaint vibe. Near the front desk movie goers can play board games as a great pre-movie activity. Cinemapolis emphasizes on value and affordability. The $8.00 large popcorn tends to be easy on the pocket! The concession stand offers tea and coffee for a cold day. The theatre sells unique merchandise. Movie lovers can purchase movie-inspired clothing at the counter. Movie lovers can see "Wicked 2, For Good". What a fantastic movie! A good point to note: the theater opens at 150pm. Stop in and enjoy the ambiance of Cinemapolis.

There is a section specifically for little, which they loved! The water table and the pet/vet section especially. In the "big kid" sections our 3 year old loved seeing all the fish and lizards, the little penny black hole and the vacuum tubes with the Pom-poms. Even the outdoor area was a blast! So many cute and clever ways for kids to learn and play. We had the hardest time getting him to leave. I ended up convincing him we could get a stuffy at their gift shop to take with us. Never thought I'd buy a stuffed white blood cell, but here we are! Again, super cool! Lastly, the staff was all so pleasant and nice, which is always extra appreciated in a kid-centered place.

On the other hand, it's the size of a post stamp. It is a beautiful building and all the exhibits have impeccable designing, but don't expect this experience to take more than an hour at most. I stopped to read every single placard and it took me roughly forty five minutes to get through everything. I can see this place being understimulating for the average kid, but at least my kid loved it because he loves fossils and sea shells. I am very appreciative of the work they do here to keep history alive, I just wish there was a bit more to it.

But for all you golfers, I'm sure it'll be a grand ole time. Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon with my daughter for a quick lunch. Yikes. Not much of a menu unless tacos and hot dogs are your thing. Mostly vegetarian fare but they do offer pork and bison! No burgers. Daughter ordered the pulled pork tacos with specific instructions for nothing but the pork. No toppings. Said it two or three times. They came to the table loaded with everything but the kitchen sink. Tomatoes, onions, whatever. Oh well, the joint just opened last week so it's to be expected to work out the kinks. I ordered the Chicago Dog which is just a Hoffmans frank with the aforementioned onions, tomatoes and whatever. It was good but $15 for a hot dog is a tad high. But the place is beautiful and if you're a golfer, I'm sure it'll be will be your cup of tea.
