Discovery World is a great spot for families to spend the afternoon! The parking is a little tight but getting in is clearly labeled. Bathrooms are clean and accessible. The exhibits are well-planned. The indoor rainstorm is so cool! My kids loved the giant sail boat they could climb around in and pretend to man. It's very efficiently labeled - green lights show entrances and red the exits. The aquarium is personally my favorite part. The underground tunnel and wall to ceiling glass is so magical. Some spots coming in also have transparent pathways so it feels like you're walking on water. My daughter enjoyed the sturgeon and stingray touch pools. My toddler son likes the giant "alien ship" he could explore. Everything was very walkable and we were excited to find an axolotl, too! The main floor has hands on exhibits that are fun. There's plenty to do for everyone and you can easily spend several hours here. Our final stop was the gift shop, which I thought was way overpriced. $60 for two cheap plastic Aquarium Vet kits is a little unreal but the kids are happy with them. Overall, we had a great first visit and will be back. The views of the lake are an extra gorgeous bonus!

A visit to One Barrel equated to being one of the most relaxing date nights! My husband and I visited for the first time and not only did we love the atmosphere, but the service was unmatchable. The bartender was so patient in answering our questions and suggesting drinks. We tried the Cherry Crisp Lager and highly recommend! Sitting by the fire pit was the epitome of the evening. It was cozy, inviting and a great space to connect in conversation. The whole facility was clean and the vibe was relaxed. The photo booth was a nice - and fun - touch to date night. We will be back!

Great spot to take a walk along the river. The sculptures are pretty cool, too. My husband and I enjoyed seeing the Atlanticborg ship docked across the water. There's plenty of benches and areas to rest but also is accessible for those of all activity types.

My kids love this little park! It's a hidden little gem. While we were sad to see the animal merry-go-round gone, we're excited to see what the new park updates will bring.
