This was a fun stop on our road trip. My girls (5, 9, & 11) enjoyed it and it was a welcomed break from driving. There is a playground onsite also, so the kids were able to let off more steam there before getting back in the car. The antique carousel itself is very interesting to see.

This is NOT at the location the map says. You can find this fully functioning, very cool attracrion at a lovely park on the corner of Story St and Grove Ave. (by the school)
We came into town from the south and followed the map thats posted....mistake! Had to ask the local waking his dog for directions. Found it 2 minutes later and was impressed.
