This experience was one for the books! I have never been to Grafton Harbor so for this to be the…read morefirst experience, they definitely can count me for several more. How are you doing the Cinco de Mayo dinner cruise which was from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM. Upon entering, it was very professionally set up they took your name at the door and as soon as you walked in was the bar which was very convenient so you can get your drink before you sit. The two bartenders said they were fairly new, but I cannot tell they held it down all night. Drinks were on point and they were getting the line down really fast no matter how long it got. Drinks were also very reasonably priced. I don't think I paid over five dollars for any drink. As for the food, the cruise included a unlimited taco bar, which was very good. The chips were very fresh and the meat was very well seasoned. I love that they include fresh guac and fresh sour cream, which I think is the perfect addition to any taco bar! They get 5 stars from me!!

Took my friend on a boat ride on the Hakuna Matata. It was a beautiful day and we had a great…read moretime. The boat had a bar and restrooms on it. You could sit in top or bottom or stand on the bow. And if you are a kid or kid at heart, the captain with let you drive the boat. The gift shop at the harbor is nice and large. Lots to choice from and they give free wine tasting. This was great to do before the boat ride because we were able to determine which wine we liked on the boat. There is also a restaurant right there if you want to grab a bit to eat.

They are closing for renovations AFTER THIS Sunday, 9-30-25,…read moreSo stop in While you have a chance. We each got something different. My family really enjoyed the sweet potato fries. The Reuben sandwich was a fav as well. Unique flavor. My Mom who is in her 80s wanted to go out on a boat...so whoaknowsa we may be back again If It's not raining. I'm almost ready to try one of those standing board things. I've been several times over the years, & Glad to hear that the same family that's on the interior GIANT stone fireplace is donating MILLIONs to the re-model. I hope that means the fireplace will remain. Lots of ducks, a heron & a white goose visited on the water while we were there. Came home with my own souvenir as they are selling quite a bit before they close. I saw the sale items on their Facebook page. The staff was VERY helpful, & You can pick up items for sale from 9-4.

Staff did a nice job getting people to a safe place. --They comped our food since electricity was out. Classy. --My wife and daughter shared a turkey club sandwich. Loved it! --I ordered a smash burger, and it came in one of those red and white striped disposable food boats, and my expectations dropped off a cliff : ) --However... I was pleasantly surprised by my burger. Cooked nicely, generous toppings. --Fries were ok, nothing to write home about. --Service was friendly. Recommended.

I really loved my visit to Anheuser-Busch a couple weeks ago!!! I drove myself to their facility…read moreand there was plenty of free parking. I checked in for my tours at the front desk and the gentleman who greeted me was super informative and friendly. I took the Beer Master Tour with Amy (I am pretty sure that was her name!). The tour was EXCELLENT and we got to see all of the behind the scenes areas of the brewery and try Budweiser straight from the finishing tanks. Based on how great the tour was, I was surprised to hear the guide had only worked there for a couple of months. Shortly after my first tour ended I took the Clydesdale tour. The guide, although I forgot his name, was amazing, hilarious and a smart ass (in a GOOD way!) He was an older gentleman who utilized a walker. It was nice to get up close and have the opportunity to pet the Clydesdales and take some photos. On each tour you receive a couple of complimentary beers and by the end of my stay I had plenty! The gift shop had so many selections from all of their different products. Their facility is massive and the main building is super cool with many different stations to hang out or take photos. They do serve food and I got a chicken wrap with potato salad and coleslaw. The wrap was good but their sides definitely need some work. They have water stations around so you can help yourself to tap or sparkling water. I highly recommend.

Great visit to the Anheuser Busch site. After a great lunch at Blues City Deli, we walked the area…read moreand finished at the Biergarten. The gentlemen behind the bar were extremely friendly. The Biergarten was huge and can obviously accommodate several guests. The beer was good, (even though we did not have Bud) We opted to not do the tour but enjoyed the surroundings.

Carondelet Park is a jewel in the South City neighborhood of Carondelet. Beautiful winding road…read morethrough trees that are kind of reminiscent of the layout of Forest Park. There's a "lake' with a fountain that is peaceful and there are plenty of spots to park and sit it take a walk and rejuvenate yourself. But the crown jewel is the YMCA right inside the park. It has exercise machines, 2 aquatic centers (the outdoor one is quite spectacular in the summertime), but the best is that I'd had comfortable places to lounge, work on your laptop, get free coffees and tea (like Parisian Blackberry) or hang out with people in the Senior Hub.

I saw some people fishing which I guess is popular at this park. While I was walking on the track I was taking in the scenery and enjoying all the greenery and views. The park sits close to a neighborhood and I was just admiring the homes as I made my way around the track. I noticed they had places for horseshoe and other park activities, but things seem to be closed off right now due to COVID. People were staying distanced from one another and it was easy to walk around people if I needed to. This is a great park and I can't wait to visit it again on the next nice day we get in STL.

We are having a wonderful experience at Alton Marina AKA Seahorse Ranch Marina in Alton, Illinois!…read moreFrom start to finish, the service was excellent. At the fuel dock, Jackson and Jill went above and beyond--helping with pump-out, rinse-out, and even offering to take our trash. Fuel prices were very reasonable too. The marina office staff were fantastic to deal with. We were a bit uncertain about our timing and length of stay, but they were flexible and accommodating the whole way through. When we pulled into our slip, our neighbors came right out to lend a hand with docking, which gave the whole place a welcoming, community feel. The facilities are clean and well-kept, with a laundry room (two washers and two dryers at just $1 each!), a beautiful pool area, and a casual snack bar that's perfect for breakfast or lunch. The covered slips feel secure, and the location is excellent--right next to the Alton Amphitheater, where there were live events going on during our visit. Another big plus is convenience: Enterprise picked us up right at the marina for a rental car, which made exploring the area simple. All in all, Seahorse Marina is a gem on the river. Great service, friendly atmosphere, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. We'll definitely be back! Thanks, Jan & Mike, Kwiat Nights III
