Lovely nature center and trails. Fun programs for kids and adults. I came with a friend for an evening of snowshoeing and mulled wine event. It was fun and very informative. Naturalists are friendly and knowledgeable. Nice place to come to just work quietly or to watch nature out the large observation windows. Live animals to see and even a bee exhibit. A real gem!
A great spot for for parents to take sub-8 year old kids for some light hiking. They have a neat indoor educational center with very friendly staff on hand.
Lovely nature center with live animals to look at. Bees, turtles, snakes, frogs and even an owl! They have a nice bird watching area as well. A good time for kids of all ages.
Eastman Nature Center is wonderful! Beautiful interprative building and really interesting/fun/excellently priced programs. Our girst grade Girl Scout Troup attended their free Honey Harvest program in Oct 2018 and it was facinating to learn about bees, their hives, honey production, etc. Kids loved it too! Did you know it takes 1,152 bees to tarvel 112,000 miles and visit 4.5 MILLION flowers just to make 16oz of honey??!!
Love Three Rivers Parks! Eastman has a great nature center with friendly staff and hands on activities for kids. The outdoor kitchen is always a favorite as well!
This has been my favorite nature center since I was a kid. Beautiful hiking trails, fun seasonal events, overall a great experience
Our family had a lovely time visiting the nature center. Inside are an array of nature related toys in the play area, great information on local wildlife, living aquarium creatures such as snakes and turtles, and wonderful, large viewing windows through which one can experience the local birds feeding (including turkeys) and whatever else happens to be nearby at the time. We attended one of the childrens programs on another occasion and highly recommend checking those programs out! Wonderful staff and great activities! Be sure to visit!
Very family-friendly! Small enough that you can go and enjoy a couple of hours. Lots of fabulous classes and programs. Great trails. The kids in my life absolutely love it!
This place needs to do better advertising. Seriously. The programs that they have YEAR ROUND for all ages is amazing. You can find it through the Three Rivers Parks. A very clean park with excellent staff. My kids loved the gopher snake and the turtles. Super fun!
Beautiful trails, spacious parking, clean and modern visitors center. Will go again.
Such a beautiful place. Our family loves going here.
Wonderful nature center that hosts lots of classes and special events. I believe they have space you can rent for private events as well.
This is a favorite for me and my toddler son. The center is fun for him to play at, with animals and nature themed toys. We love exploring the walking paths. Awesome place to enjoy nature!!!
Brought my granddaughter and she loved it. Lots to do there and hard to pull the kids away. Great way to enjoy the outdoors too.
I recently walked this place and it was very serene and very calming. Lots of wildlife there to see and many different trails with markings so you dont get lost and know which trails youve seen and been on. Great date Location or a location for kids to see cool animals and tracks. They also do events like maple syrup tasting, etc there. Call for events and schedules.
This place is great. I bring my kids here and theyre entertained for hours. Lots of excellent programming for a great price, too. They have events throughout the year that are designed to teach people about nature of all sorts. Definitely worth checking out.They have some really nice hiking trails, and supposedly a swimming pond, but I havent seen that (Im sure its there, I just havent been everywhere here).
Very nice place, look forward to going back in the summer!
We had so much fun at todays beach party! A huge thank you to the amazing volunteers who made it so interesting and fun for all! We love visiting there ... Saw cardinals, wild turkeys and squirrels today
Great place to bring your kids and watch nature
Beautiful views of the changing leaves! Many easy trails to walk.
A great way to get out and about in nature! Nice trails and hiking for everyone. Definitely recommend!
Nice and new nature center. Kids liked the animals on exhibit and the activities available. Easy parking. Several trails to hike. We saw wild turkeys near the trail.
We love Eastman Nature Center! My kids and I can spend hours there! Great for any age. My kids range of ages are 7-11 years old and they have a great time every time we visit. I think our favorite thing to do there is rent a pond kit (free) or explore in the kids discovery area outside in the woods. They make teepees, bridges, catch and release frogs, go on a hike, and so much more! But dont forget to bring your BUG SPRAY!! You will definitely need it :)
Great place to take your kids!
Super cool place!
I went here a bunch as a kid and now I take my family! Great trails and cheep snow shoes for people/families trying to find fun local winter activities!
Good research for nature lovers and beautiful scenery.
Staff is friendly and outgoing. The building itself is beautiful and very clean. If you want a short hike, there are many excellent hiking trails which originate at the Nature Center.
Wonderful!!! Beautiful hiking trails, beautiful views, lots of birds and happy children.
So much fun here and for all ages, the trails are great for hiking and they have some awesome free classes to take. We took the one on how to tap a tree for Maple Syrup.
What a peaceful place. One of the best nature centers Ive been in. You could easily bring a book and relax by yourself or bring a group of kids and they would entertained for a while. The staff is super helpful and its beautiful.
The Taj Mahal of nature centers. Awesome staff and an easy birthday party.
