Incredible! If you have any history seekers in your group or kids interested in tanks, this is a…read morevery cool place. PROS: Simply amazing to see all of these vehicles restored and on display, probably looking better than they did while in use. Every detail is accounted for and you can tell great care went into the displays here. There's a 25 minute intro video that I recommend you do, after you buy your tickets. It's not mandatory but it takes you through the major conflicts in US history across 3 rooms, making it much more exciting than just sitting in one room. Good history lesson for the young and old. While the race car and planes hangars were closed, we got to see the tanks and military equipment museum. It's an impressive collection ranging from WWI through modern day. There are many vehicles here that you will not find on display anywhere else in the US, and in same cases, the world (i think). There is an impressive video and narration about the encounter between a German Panzer and Russian tanks, complete with the restored vehicles and some special effects on the museum floor. It happens while you're walking around so you can stop and see it. They even talk about the restoration process and all that went into it. Although you cannot get into any of the vehicles, you can touch them. It's amazing how the tanks feel more like concrete than metal. The staff here is so nice. They're helpful and polite. I honestly have never encountered a museum staff like these guys, they're excellent. CONS: It can get expensive at $20 for adults or anyone over 12, if your party is large. Kids price is $10. Discounts for veterans. I understand it's non-profit, so the money is going to restore and add to the collection, I assume, so I can't complain. For reasons unknown, the airplane and race car buildings aren't always open, so you have to come for special events. I didn't inquire why, but you would think it'd just be laid out like the tanks were, allowing you to walk around and look at them. Call ahead to see if those buildings are open. I was a bit disappointed I'll have to come back and pay again to see that, when I would have liked to have done it in one pass. OVERALL: A truly awe inspiring experience. This might the best attraction in Massachusetts. You must see it. If you're stuck without plans on a rainy weekend, THIS IS WHERE YOU SHOULD BE!

In Stow they have the largest tank collection and old cars. One of 15 B-17 still flying and one of the last 3 B-24 still airworthy. Flights 30 mins are $450, walking tours are $15 for adults. Be forewarned, the tour of the B-17 requires crawling and squeezing through very confined spaces. The smaller and more agile you are the better, great for kids. Flights are entered via the cargo door, turn around and pull yourself into backwards onto the floor and buckle in. Once airborne, you can walk around, only windows are two side gun turrets.

Then learned they were a primarily reservation-based restaurant, BUT they were able to snag me a table...Yay! The restaurant was unusual in that it felt like a fake establishment, almost set up as a prop for a comedy skit. The server came over promptly and told me that all food arrived from outside, and they just heated things up, and that they may or may not have all things on the menu. Anyway, it all worked out, they had what I wanted, and it was all actually really good, and the concert was... AMAZING!!!

The venue is nestled in a wide expanse and there is plenty of parking. The building is gorgeious inside and out. You are able to order a meal ahead for dining before a show. I thought it would be chaos but it was well organized and the seatings timed in a way that you could have a leisurely meal. The concert hall is beautiful and I'm guessing there is not a bad seat in the house. I will be back!

I was assigned a lakefront cottage that was extremely spacious and quite comfortable. There are more modern, and more fully outfitted, condos but I enjoyed the scenic view and quite setting of my cottage. Pilgrim Pines is a venue that hosts a variety of visitors. There are summer camps, conferences and, likely, retreats but my visit was with a group of hikers and artists who stayed on property from Sunday through Friday. Meals are held in the main dining room and are served buffet-style which made it easy to enjoy what I wanted and to the leave the rest for others. Guests are expected to place dirty dishes and glassware in a bin which makes for a quick and easy clean up. There is a 2 1/2 mile loop around the lake that can be enjoyed during a leisurely walk or a more ambitious run. There are also trails and dirt roads/paths nearby for additional outdoor excursions. The water was a little too cold for my tastes but the lake seemed to be inviting and would certainly provide a smooth place to canoe. There is a small store on property with hours that vary according to need. It offered a lovely selection of toys for children, sweet treats, Christmas ornaments and other holiday decor, jewelry, original paintings and some items representative of the region. Definitely worth checking out if you can manage to be around when staff opens it up for business. Every staff member I encountered added to the overall enjoyable experience of staying here. It was always easy to strike up a conversation or ask for any assistance. A lovely chapel on property did double duty as a morning yoga studio and an evening presentation spot for guest speakers. The real highlight of the stay, particularly after an exhausting day hike, was the shower. It had great water pressure and hot water that helped to make the muscles feel much better. Due to the religious affiliations of this property alcohol is off limits. Guests are welcome to enjoy the books, games, puzzles and even the TV found in the main lodge but for me the chance to enjoy the outdoors or just curl up with a book in my little lakeside nook was all I needed!
