Gets a 3 star bc the museum was closed due to covid. The gift shop part was open with lots of souvenirs. Great spot to leave car while you take the shuttle bus around the park.
Very close to park entrance with plenty of parking to get out and take pictures.
Worth the drive. Lots of curved roads. Be easy on your breaks, mine started to smoke on the way back down! Gift shop was closed bc of Covid. Bring water! The shuttle system made the whole trip so much better. Park car next to giant forest museum and shuttle to all of the stops! They leave every 7-14 minutes. Hike to Sherman was super easy. Wheel chair accessible/kid friendly. Not animals allowed though. He’s HUGE. That trail is usually popular and a line forms to take pictures. Rangers everywhere to ask questions. Single car entrance was $35. Found a hotel in Vasalia and the drive was about 45/60 minutes from there.
