    Well, it is definitely the world's largest cuckoo clock. On the hour, every hour, little figures come out and do a dance and play a song. It is really cute and so is the surrounding neighborhood. It is worth checking out if you are in the area. When will you ever get another chance to see the world's largest cuckoo clock?

    If you're in the area, this is a must see. It's a giant cuckoo clock. Pretty self explanatory. It occasionally will open up and play music and have dancing wood figures. There's a bunch of shops around to explore too.

    Oh I was really excited to see this! Located in Sugarcreek Ohio, I found this on America Roadside .com about Oddities across America. I have been to Amish Country several times BUT NEVER EVER have I seenthis...didn't know it was here!!! Now, I have to share. Free to enjoy ! It cuckoos every hour & every half hour...very very nice!! I have never seen anything like this even in Germany when I lived there! Pretty easy to located, it's on the corner right on Main street...so if in the area...check it out!! There is also A very large Happy German Man Statue in the little park...and a gift shop right beside it but it was closed!!! You should definitely go here!!!

    Every half hour and for about 5 minutes, you get music and figures that slide out acting out out that music and dance. Looks cool at first but then there isn't anything else that happens. They do keep the attraction well maintained and it should be a stop when you are in Amish country. Be sure to stop by the Alpine museum and information center, it will increase your enjoyment and appreciation of the Amish!

    I think that the entire Sugarcreek area is nice. The people, the little shops, etc. Although I did not see the actual cuckoo part of the clock go off, I did see people watching it. I had gone after and just marveled at the grandeur.

    Well I'm going to give this area 3 stars drive an hour from my location to see the Worlds largest cuckoo clock.. it was cute, I didn't hear a cuckoo only the music playing. So disappointed that a bird didn't pop out to cuckoo. The town was a bit dull, there are a few cute stores and I did spend money there. I went mainly to go to the collectors store but it was closed so I was totally disappointed. There is music playing as you walk down the sidewalks but calling it an alpine village is a bit of a stretch. The area as a whole along with Berlin OH a lot of nice stores and places to shop wish I had stopped at a few more areas.. but there is always next time

    This was a unique and interesting attraction. It's very colorful and chimes on the hour. Figurines come out dressed in Swiss garb and play a musical tunr. Their "show" lasts about 5 minutes. There are several touristy stores and shops in the area. This is well worth a stop.

    We had a fabulous time in Sugarcreek today! I have never been before, and the little historic downtown is charming. We had so much fun walking around and seeing the shops and attractions, but obviously main attraction was the cuckoo clock! We loved seeing the little show on the hour and half hour, and getting into the kitschy spirit. The piped in yodeling music was a fun bonus.

    I stopped by here today with my wife and her parents whenever we were in the area. We had seen a sign for " The Little Switzerland of Ohio" and so proceeded into downtown Sugarcreek, OH. Saying downtown may be a little generous as it is probably only a block in each direction. Anyways the clock sits on the corner of Broadway and Main St. and is quite tall coming in at 24 feet. Since there was a sign outside telling us that the clock played every half an hour and we only had a ten minute wait until it played again, we decided to stay. Whenever the clock hit the hour it started up and a three-foot-tall couple on tracks danced the polka to Bavarian music played by a five-piece robot oompa band. Overall I was a little disappointed by the performance of the clock as I thought more might happen but it was still somewhat entertaining. The bottom line for me is that I would possibly stop by here again in the future. It's a quirky road side attraction and not so bad if you are driving up OH-39. However I certainly wouldn't make a trek off of I-77 to see it.

    I missed the clock's chiming action twice but the clock but was still fun to see. It was sprinkling so I didn't want to hang around for another 27 minutes to see the action. Apparently it performs on the half hour.

    Can you take your dog 2 look around?

    Yes. You may not be able to take him into the bakery and some of the stores are very close inside so if he's a big dog I wouldn't recommend taking him in stores

    While visiting friends in Ohio we discovered Lanterman's Mill, first built in 1845 and later…read morerestored in 1985. I am a lover of hiking, waterfalls, mills, bridges, gardens, historic places and tranquil spaces. Lanterman's Mill has all of this which makes a visit here nearly perfect. --- If you follow my reviews then you know I have a particular affinity for COVERED BRIDGES. When I discovered this place while doing a Google search of things to see in the area, I did not notice any pictures of a covered bridge. So it was beyond thrilling to walk behind the mill (where it is hidden from street view) and stumble upon it. For me, this was like finding a briefcase of money as I stood in total disbelief for several minutes. Not only was it a delightful surprise, it was beautiful and well maintained to boot, which is not always the case with covered bridges. Built in 1989, the covered bridge is not historic, but was designed in the likeness of other local bridges from the 1800's that farmers used to bring their grain to the mill. There is also a gorgeous arched street bridge that provides an excellent vantage point for photos of the mill & waterfall as well as another decorative suspension bridge just a half mile away. A 2-mile loop hiking trail known as East Gorge Walk and West Gorge Trail allows for wonderful views of the river gorge and leads you to the suspension bridge from the mill. These trails connect with the West Cohasset, East Cohasset, Axtmann and Old Tree Walking Trails and can more that triple your mileage as you explore the northern end of the park. --- OTHER AREAS OF INTEREST along the connecting walking trail are several ponds, small lakes, picnic pavilions, playgrounds and even a public golf course @ Mill Creek Metro Park. There is a Riverside Garden, Quarry Garden, Nature Center, and the ruins of a historic furnace built in the 1820's which produced approximately three to four tons of iron daily. Pioneer Pavilion, built in 1821 as a mill for carding and fulling wool is a rare surviving example of early 19th Century industry. It sits within view of the furnace. Cascade Gorge Natural Pool and an area known as THE FLATS round out some of the beautiful areas of interest near Lanterman's Mill. NOTE: The Flats are a lush grassy area surrounded by a horse fence. If you follow the fence you will notice an enormous tree in its path, which causes the fence to terminate and continue on the other side of the tree. Not sure what kind of tree it is, but it certainly seems to be very, very old based on the thickness of its trunk. It is easily more than 100 years older than any tree in its vicinity. FINAL THOUGHTS The Mill is a testimony to human determination. The current mill is the third incarnation. The first mill was built of logs and operated from 1799 to 1822. In 1823 the original mill was replaced by a second mill which operated until 1843 when a flood washed it away. A grinding stone from this mill can still be seen resting in the creek bed 500 feet downstream of the Falls. Lanterman's Mill ceased operations in 1888. [source: millcreekmetroparks.org] Lanterman's Mill itself is over 5-stories tall and has a very unique feature of having the waterwheel inside the basement of the mill. All the walking trails are free, but entrance inside the working areas of the mill are currently $3 for non-resident adults and $1 for students and seniors (July 2023). A butterfly garden is on site and during our visit we were graced with many birds, a groundhog, chipmunk and the largest most unusual forest mushroom we've ever seen. It is absolutely a stunning place in the summer. I can't even begin to imagine how magical it is in the Fall season as the trees change into their best outfits. Enjoy! BTW I've been trying my hand at TikTok & made a few videos of our visit to this mill if you care to see them: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8dqN8JM/ - https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8dVsHeW/ 2023 / 10

We also didn't see anyone to give tours or ask information. The park is easy to find with lots of signs pointing the way. When you pull in there is a visitor center that has a gift shop and restrooms. Everyone's favorite part was the parrot. If you say hi or dance he will talk to you. The park has trails you can hike. There are maps in the lobby to help find a course. They mentioned a cave trail but the map did not have trail names so we were not sure what path to follow. You can walk down to the barn and see the animals. We also walked around the exterior of the house. Behind the visitor center there is a great playground that the kids really enjoyed. If coming for a visit I highly recommend waiting to come during the peak season so you can view the house and have staff to explain the history and trails you can hike. Lots of picnic areas too so pack a lunch!

Knowing this, I took a day off on a Friday to come to their 1pm tour. No one else was there so it ended up being a private tour for my BF and me. Our docent Elaine was a straight G for showing us all the areas (and more!), giving us colorful background, really emphasizing the significance of the place and her passion to maintain and preserve. While it's true that the entire upstairs have been converted to offices, Christmas displays and bridal suites, the first floor, and some extras (library, dinning room, sunroom, German pub room) were all still intact and interesting to tour. The staff was very welcoming and it genuinely was interesting to learn about Alliance, the engineering company and the descendants. The admission cost is $10 per person cash and I thought it was worthwhile for the hour+ tour. The grounds had an echo chamber that greatly amused us! Recommend stopping by here and checking out the cute antique shops in downtown Alliance! I had a wonderful day trip here.

We were there for the holiday weekend tour and it was really crowded with not great crowd-management and not really much information about the home or the family. There was a brief hand-out with some basic information about each room, but really nothing really sparked my attention or jumped out here. I am still not sure what the family did or aware of any specific hidden gems in the mansion or anything significant about the architecture. The most interesting little detail were the trolls and owls carved into the molding upstairs in the library. I don't know, but maybe if we came back on a day that wasn't packed to the brim with people I would have felt more engaged? Or maybe more time to talk to the docents? For ten bucks per adult, I don't really think it was worth it. There were significant repairs needed and the house has not fully been restored. There are far more detailed and interesting tours of historic homes in the northeast Ohio area to visit. Either way, now we can say we've been and my son DID get to visit Santa Claus with virtually zero wait to do so. That's a win.

About 225 German Separatists (Radical Pietists) from Württemberg, Bavaria, and Baden, led by Joseph Bimeler came to Ohio to escape religious persecution and form a simpler way of living in Zoar. The buildings look very much like they did when the Separatists arrived in 1819 and most of them have been very well preserved. The Zoar Hotel needs some work and parts of it are unsafe to visit, although the first floor hosted a Christmas tree sale and the basement housed Krampus (which might have been my absolute favorite part of this particular event). I also love how friendly all of the docents are. I've been here many times and the photos attached are from Christmas in Zoar which takes place several weekends in December and is $15 for adults and free for children. There is a bit of a disconnect with the advertising; event page says "guided tour", but you arrive and it's self guided. That is not a problem because I prefer to go at my own pace, however it may be off-putting for some. I also came to Zoar for the Ghost Dinner at Halloween at Zoar Tavern. It was a fun event and the food was really good, but again the communication was a little confusing, because no address was provided and we weren't sure exactly where to go. The Zoar Tavern is listed as "permanently closed" on yelp and on Apple Maps, so it makes you question if you are headed to the right place or not. I would love to do the ghost tour at some point. It is led by a lantern-toting guide through each of the historic buildings and Zoar takes on a different vibe at nighttime. I did bring my son here for the daytime Trick or Treat event and we had a lot of fun and got a generous amount of candy. Also, during the Christmas event the community hall (near the church) sold hot food items and gluwein. Very tasty. The Zoar Bakery was opened as well and I got a pretzel and a cookie. I've never been impressed by the baked goods there, so next time I'll skep that stop. I also bought a commemorative Zoar Christmas mug at the community hall, in which my gluwein was served. Very cool keepsake and I love that hot mulled wine. If you are in eastern Ohio, this place is worth a visit. It is twenty minutes down the street from me, so I have no doubt I'll be back again.
