These gardens, located in Whitnall Park, offer an outstanding variety of plants and flowers including significant collections of roses and perennials.
Visiting the spectacular China Lights exhibit was worth dealing with the throngs of eager attendees who also marveled at the creative display of clever and historically inspired scenes. There is signage to describe each area, but the downloadable app allowed more detail. There were dance and martial arts performers and music adding to the feel of the experience. Parking in remote lots was aided by shuttle bus transport. I would suggest that at the entrance gate that there could be separate lines for persons who had prepaid vouchers. All in all a delightful evening.

The Basilica of St. Josaphat is a ministry of the Conventual Franciscans on the South Side of Milwaukee in Historic Lincoln Village. The Basilica is a Franciscan center for prayer and spirituality, inspiration and beauty. It is home to a vibrant Roman Catholic parish and remains a testament to the faith of the Polish immigrants that created it. We invite you to join us for a visit, a tour, for worship or in prayer.

The trails here are well marked and color coded so you can't get lost. All sorts of different habitats are experienced here. A nice clean air conditioned nature center building with restrooms and a souvenir shop. Plenty of parking but you'll have to pay a few dollars and post the receipt on your dashboard.

This year-round facility has heated bays, great targets with accurate yardage markers, good range balls, a fun mini-golf course and a nice little snackbar. It really fills the golf bill in the wintertime! During the spring/summer/fall, the short-game area is good, including putting, chipping, sand trap.

Awesome place. Been coming here for many of years and never had a bad experience. Staff is always helpful and are good workers. Place is always very clean as are the bathrooms. Concessions are great and the new restaurant and bar is very good. As far as seats...very comfy... Do yourself a favor and take family or friends or date and go check out a movie here.

Located in Historic Downtown Greendale, we serve world class wine and beer from small producers. Flights, rotating wines by the glass and a cozy lounge atmosphere.
We are visiting our long time best friends in Greendale, Wisconsin and want a friendly, fun place to relax and unwind. Our friends suggest the Vintage 38 in Historic, Downtown Greendale. What impressed us most was the friendliness of the staff and the care they took to please their customers. The wine selection was superb and the Craft Beers were a beer lovers dream!
Outside seating is a great way to enjoy the wonderful summer weather and table service is provided. Our long time good friends chose to sit outside and we enjoyed a wonderful, memorable summer evening.
Wisconsin has long been regarded as a very friendly, "Down Home" State. Vintage 38 is a "Down Home" Wisconsin, Wine Bar, with outstanding service and an excellent selection of fine wines and craft beers!
When in the greater Milwaukee, Greendale area, Vintage 38 will impress you as it has our good friends in the past and now, from their good friends from South Carolina.

This is a very large park that seems to have something any time of year. There are lots and lots of trails - some covered with woodchips and some board walks. There is a golf course that would be of interest to the golfers. And, of course, in the summer there are the botanical gardens. Lots of places for a picnic. And if it continues, the incredible China Lights in the winter. It's truly a wonderful country experience only about 20 min. from downtown Milwaukee.

We've hosted our annual awards banquet here since 2005 and each year they do a great job of service and food. All of our clients enjoy the buffet spread. They are great with the kids as most of our group is made up of children

Greendale is the quaint destination in Wisconsin that you have been searching for. This historic planned garden community has lovely shops, great dining options, family friendly events year-round and is surrounded by parks and green space. Take a walk through history in our charming "Greenbelt" community. Our Historic Greendale Welcome Center will inform you of everything you will want to know!
We had foreign exchange students staying with us and stopped by the visitor center to give them a better idea about the history of the place they would be staying. We found a soft cover book for a reasonable price that provided great details on the village's history. Greendale is a great place to spend a weekend especially during the Holidays and the Welcome Center is the best place to start

Voted Best of Milwaukee & One of the 50 Best Trampoline Parks in the World. Helium is much more than your ordinary trampoline park, we offer the best of trampoline park experience with a host of incredible indoor adventure attraction options. Helium is a place that helps you create fabulous memories. Helium guests can purchase jump time, wristband attractions or both. Your choice, the fun is up to you.
Best. Place. Ever.
We had 2 hours of unlimited for about $23.00 per person. Worth the price because if you do just the general trampoline it is $13.00 and then everything else is extra.
Staff
Major shoutout to Kenna, Nicki and Hannah. Those girls were friendly, nice, very patient. They even were nice to take photos for me so I could be in the photos!
Laser Tag
6 minutes long. Layout is an abandoned mine. They will only operate it if it is a group. As a pair of two, we found others to form a group. They show you scores and rankings on a TV afterwards.
Mt Helium
I loved that the wall was color coded to indicate the difficulty. blue was easy and then go down the line. It made it easy for people to see and the floor was black astro tuff so the landing on your feet was quite comfortable.
Hamster Ball
Fun but disappointing. The balls are open on both ends so you end up constantly falling in the holes. They put you on the trampoline grid so it is very difficult to maneuver the balls over the barrier into another grid. I spent most of the time stuck on a grid trying to get out.
Ninja Warrior Course
3 levels of difficulty. Very challenging.
Ropes Course
Fun and challenging. Be warned because your moving chain can become stuck sometimes and then you have to wiggle it free.
Dodge Ball
Love the fact it is a separate court as well as the basketball area which has two hoops at different heights.
The park itself was very clean. There was no trash anywhere or dirty tables. Bathrooms were clean; no spills on counters, each stall had toilet paper.
Only issue is location as it is off the main street. We found it using GPS.
