Massena Nature Center

Reviewed By blackadder2016 - Ottawa, Canada

Beautiful location along the St. Lawrence River. The nature displays work on all age levels - kids to adults. Staff are very visible, knowledgeable, and easy to interact with. Didn't do all the many trails out to and along the river as I didn't allow enough time (next time for sure) - spent way more time inside than I thought I would. Spent a lot of time with an interactive audio book of hundreds of birds and their songs - pick a bird, enter the bird's index number, and you hear the bird. Though I went in the Fall, there are activities all year, including snow-shoeing on the trails in Winter. Allow at least an hour inside and if hiking the trails is your option, you could spend 3+ hours easily.

Believe that crafts people and artisans are people of the past? They are certainly not at THE TAUNY CENTER. Spend more time than you anticipated looking at the diversity of excellence in woodworking, quilts, and pottery. Kathy and Lois will be pleased to answers questions about any of the items for sale and to share TAUNY's remarkable history. Thanks particularly to Varick Chittenden, St. Lawrence University 1963, the founder of this specual place from classmate John McClenahen.

Eisenhower Lock

Reviewed By DonC510 - Rochester, United States

Had a great time even though it was misting the entire time there watching these ocean going ships fill up the lock from end to end and side to side and get raised or lowered 40 some feet in a matter of minutes. Also a great video in the visitors center on the construction. Actually visited in July of 2017 on a 50th anniversary trip.
