3 weeks agoLots of animals to see. I feel like they should have had a live aquarium though I asked the worker if the animals was real and she explained me how it actually worked so that was very helpful

2 years agoOverall we had a great experience! The museum is very clean. The staff was very helpful and friendly. This is one of the smaller, older museums. Nonetheless, it is great for younger children. They have a small playroom for toddlers and infants. We did enjoy their planetarium as well!

a year agoI was impressed that in a not big town there is a rather impressive museum with a huge selection of exhibits and I was surprised that there was a planitarium and kid's play area. We were satisfied.

2 months agoFirst time visiting and my toddler and I had a wonderful time exploring all the awesome exhibits. There is also a great toddler play area and gift shop, as well. We will be returning!

5 years agoI don't know who enjoys this museum more- the kids or me! The first time we went there was a great exhibit on nocturnal animals ;however, the second time that was closed. I love the taxidermied animals and a great learning experience for kids for different terrains and the animals and plants that grown within them. There are tables to investigate more and many books and information! I have yet to be in the planetarium as they are limited in show times. My kids really enjoy the kids room too- kitchen area, puppets, blocks galore. A safe and fun space for kids of all ages (probably best for those under 6). Most employees very nice - one lady was getting on kids in kids area to clean up behind themselves in a strict manner. Cute gift shop for local gifts. I would love to see an upgrade to the outside of the building to be more welcoming and maybe something's done outside -- garden, bird houses, etc. For it to represent all of York County a few upgrades would be great!!
