We heard about Thrive and gave it a try. The boys had a great time and we will definitely be back. Thrive gives has a great welcoming atmosphere, the employees were attentive as this was our first time. My boys love basketball as they spent most of their time on the bounce court. The best part for me, was getting a break while thrive took care of the entertainment. They have a sitting area for parents like me lol. One other thing that stood out was the person in charge of Thrive was on the floor working as well. He was very friendly and accommodating. It's a good sight when you see full team support. Great job Thrive, we will be back!

Plenty Book Shop is one of those places that feels special the moment you walk through the door…read more Of course, the book selection is wonderful, but what I love most is that the entire shop feels thoughtfully curated. Every section seems to have its own personality. There's one area that always makes me think of what I imagine Jane Austen's library might have felt like -- cozy, beautiful, timeless and just a little magical. Then there's the children's section, complete with an incredible rolling library ladder that makes the whole space feel like something out of a storybook. And it goes far beyond books. They have such a great selection of unique gifts, beautifully curated items and little treasures that make it an easy place to find something for someone else -- or, very realistically, something you suddenly decide you need for yourself. They're also constantly finding creative ways to make reading fun and build a community around books. They offer book challenges, Books of the Month, events, writers' workshops and other programs that make Plenty feel like much more than a store. It feels like a gathering place for people who genuinely love books, creativity and storytelling. One of the things that makes Plenty especially meaningful is its commitment to children's literacy and the nonprofit work connected to that mission. Knowing that there is a bigger purpose behind what they're building makes an already wonderful place even more special. There are bookstores where you stop in, find a book and leave. Plenty is the kind of bookstore you want to wander through, discover something unexpected, stay awhile and come back to see what they've dreamed up next. It is charming, creative, welcoming and completely unique -- easily one of my favorite bookstores.

Every small detail has been carefully thought out. Although it is a treehouse, the bathroom is immaculate. A very large shower, bathtub, and double vanity sink. Super eclectic -- just look at the sink fixtures that look like a giant swan head. They repurposed stained glass from an old Burger King, doors from an 1800s mansion, a vintage jukebox and record player. It goes on and on. The construction is awesome too. This was built by Amish craftsmen and has giant windows, a huge bed swing underneath, and a hot rub and fire pit. There's also a separate deck with an eating area. All of this is carefully curated with nice outdoor lighting and art everywhere. Super private place and very much in the middle of nature. Aside from all that, the complex has a Swedish sauna, cold plunge, basketball court, putting area, and small camper trailers with recreational items like basketballs and games. Overall: VERY cool place if you need to get away from it all. Recommended.

I normally don't leave negative reviews, but I felt obligated to share my experience to help future…read morecouples make an informed decision. The best parts of our wedding experience had very little to do with Leeric Lodge itself. The scenery was beautiful, and the outside vendors we worked with were wonderful and professional. Unfortunately, our experience with the venue management left us with significant concerns. My biggest recommendation to anyone considering this venue is to have a legal representative carefully review the contract before signing anything. In our experience, there were too many loopholes and unclear provisions that created unnecessary stress and confusion. Wedding planning is already overwhelming enough, and couples should be focused on enjoying their engagement and preparing for their special day--not worrying about unexpected issues or hidden complications that continue to surface. Brides and grooms deserve transparency, professionalism, and peace of mind when choosing a venue. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. I understand that every situation is different, but I would strongly encourage anyone considering this venue to do thorough research, ask detailed questions, and make sure they fully understand every aspect of the agreement before committing. This review is not written out of spite. I simply didn't feel right staying silent when my experience could potentially help someone else avoid unnecessary stress during what should be one of the happiest times of their life. If negative reviews disappear, I still wanted to make sure this warning was shared somewhere future couples might see it.

After reading other negative reviews I know they will do reputation management & spin it. They…read moreflat out lied on several times. BUT DECIDE FOR YOURSELF! Vendors- we used preferred vendors & all were professional, easy to deal with, & provided a great service for a fair price. No complaints. Leeric Staff-Dealing w/the owner & wedding coordinator before/after the event was a horrible experience & stressful. We chose the "Stress Free/Weekender" package as we live 10 hours from the lodge. The owner was not transparent & didn't properly describe what was included. Ex. the package stated "heavy weighted dinnerware" but what we got was gold colored plastic utensils & plastic plates. I'd expect metal utensils & porcelain plates in the highest tier package. The plastic knives made it hard to cut steaks. If I wanted different dinnerware I could request it from the caterer for an cost extra. After the contract was signed and five months prior to the wedding the coordinator said there's an $80+ charge/night/person staying in the lodge. Then 3 days before the wedding the coordinator stated the wedding party only stays in the lodge Friday night & only the bride/groom stay @ the lodge Saturday night. The wedding party would need to book hotel rooms last minute. This wasn't what was discussed or stated in our package. Our documentation confirmed what we thought. We paid extra for the DJ to play the ceremony music & cocktail hour. The venue staff was supplied w/ a list of ceremony music details. There was miscommunication btw the venue staff & DJ as the DJ played THE WRONG SONG for the walk down the aisle. My daughter had no clue what song was playing or when to start walking. She was embarrassed when the music stopped 1/2 way down the aisle & finished her walk in silence. That's a big mistake! The day of coordinator showed up 90 minutes late on the day of the wedding. After we finished the rehearsal the coordinator told the wedding party she'd be there @ 11:30am the next day. Multiple people we were looking for her @ 11:30. The father of the bride & father of the groom were waiting for her since they had to decorate the arch & the coordinator had the arch drapery. She showed up at 1:00 & the father daughter first look was at 2:00. So he had to rush to complete the arch, get a shower, & get dressed Since they don't provide a cake knife for the couple to cut the cake (although the package included a cake) we provided our own silver cake knife. After the wedding we noticed we didn't get the knife back. We reached out to the owner& she stated they didn't have it. She blamed the caterer but the caterer didn't even use it. 5 weeks after the wedding they let us know that they found it @ the venue. To return it we could pay $75 for them to mail it to us or we could buy a box & mail it to the Leeric w/a prepaid shipping label & they'd mail it back. They said it was our responsibility to take the knife home w/ us. But if it took them 5 weeks to find it @ their own venue how could we have seen it @ the end of the night? The knife was clearly misplaced by the venue staff & the right thing would have been to mail it back to us. They showed their lack of customer service again by sticking to the 2 return options. Luckily the caterer picked it up & mail it to me @ no cost. Now that's customer service! Payment- would be nice if payment could be done via check to avoid the 6% credit card fee (12% fee for security deposit). I understand the st payment being done via credit card to secure the date but after that sending a check prior to the due date should be an option. We paid over $1600 in credit card fees. Contract- the contract should be package specific as it included things that weren't applicable to our package-causing confusion. I suggest: -review contract line by line what is/isn't included & ask a lot of questions -hand tip envelopes to vendors directly -have someone in your wedding party confirm w/the DJ the ceremony songs(hear what they will play) -Record GoogleMeet calls & keep all emails
