Many of the buildings have been gathered from small Minnesota townships that are now defunct. There is a drugstore, ice cream shop, post office, bank, train station and many more buildings.

Another cool thing is that you can volunteer and be a performer if you like. All ages are welcomed.

The volunteers make this a great visit for both young and old. The holiday season is the best!read more

Little did I know I would be spending lots of extra time here, cause the ladies behind the bar were fun and so welcoming! Let's just say I was the last one to leave on Friday night! Think your sweet Grandma but your sweet Grandma who probably does shots of Fireball with her friends on weekends! Then on Saturday one of them even humored me by making some shots for my friends and I that the bar I used to work at invented called a, Communion! So great! This place is really nice.. It's older but it's got a cool vibe.. And the bathrooms have recently been updated and are very modern! The back room where the show was, was perfect for a little night of rock n roll! I'd like to raise a glass to the ladies behind the bar for being so welcoming and making this my fave spot of the weekend!

Well as local Friday Fish Fry's go this is very, very good…read more The Cod is of high quality , and has a superbly flavored, parchment thin batter, that just adds a great crunch to the perfectly cooked slightly sweet Cod! It takes about 20/30 minutes from order to the table!! The Coleslaw and Fry's are equally well prepared, served hot and fresh by a great staff, at the Legion.. $ 7.00/ for a basket of three generous nicely flavored chunks, or add more, for $1.25 / per portion..! Also try the Fried Shrimps, very good as well served with a tangy hot sauce. The Club is very busy on Friday so get there before 5pm, if you don't want an additional 30/40 minute wait for your food..!

We have been going to Croix farm for years now, this place is part of our fall tradition…read more We prefer going to this place over other similar establishments in the area cause this place is just right, not too big and not too small. The staff is always super friendly. They never nickel and dime you like some other places in the area that even charge you with an admission price. We have never been disappointed with the variety of apples or an abundance of pumpkins to pick from. They have a corn maze for which you do have to buy a ticket but it's very reasonable ($5/pp) and you get to take a hayride to the corn maze. There's always a food truck there with fried goodies and of course apple cider. There is a store there also where you can buy pre-picked apples and other goodies. Tbh - I don't think that prices at this location for hot food, apples, pumpkins or the corn maze have changed at all since we've been coming here.

Last time I went to Soundset was in 2008 at the Metrodome parking lot. From humble beginnings of…read morebarely 10,000 to where on May 26 2013, over 28,000 Hip Hop fans gathered at Canterbury Park. Back in 2008, we got to see Eyedea & Abilities, Aesop Rock, Slug, Brother Ali and P.O.S. In 2013, all were there except for Eyedea. Prof performed instead of Busta Rymes, The Rugged Man was present, The Reminders were poetic and Tech N9ne killed it. Worst Part: The event organizers and those clueless parents who let their 12 year old kids run wild at an event where most are freely drinking, smoking and at a function where you have the tragicomic Juicy J telling the young females in the crowd to show their breasts and not in those words, yes, somebody's gotta realize of the unintended consequences. Than again, most of the blame lies with those dopey parents. Best Part: Snoop Dogg is a legend in Hip Hop and it was great hearing ol' classics like, California Love, Paper'd Up and Gin & Juice after not seeing him live since moving from Cali. I am a fan of Conscientious Rap and Political Rap, so I was pleased with the mixture of having The Reminders. But the best moment of Soundset 2013 belonged to Brother Ali paying a tribute to Eyedea - We miss you Mikey.

However, it was rather informative about the city of Red Wing, the former pottery factory, and shelves and shelves of different forms of the Red Wing wares.

I'm not sure how small children may feel about it, but for adults with an appreciate for art, history, and/or pottery I would definitely recommend this museum. Make sure to read the fact cards - they may be small, but they provide a lot of interesting information.

My friends and I dined in around 2 pm on a Sunday afternoon after finding my wedding dress in town (yay). We wanted to make this a celebration and ordered 2 Prosecco's and 1 Espresso Martini. The Prosecco's were not Prosecco's as they were served in wine cups and had zero bubbles. When we commented how flat the drinks looked, the server was positive they were fresh from the bottle. Rather than go back and forth a million times, we dropped it. Contrary, the Espresso Martini was delicious. I enjoyed the ambiance, big windows and cleanliness. The food was good as well as I opted for the chicken caeser wrap and a cup of tomato soup. The best part was hands down the beignet donuts served with vanilla ice cream and some caramel drizzle. Yum!!
