Historic Downtown McKinney

I enjoy visiting the McKinney town square and looked forward to introducing my sister in laws and nieces to it on our girl's weekend. They were delighted with the shopping opportunities and the variety of eating establishments.

Future Flight

Reviewed By Lee M - Gloucester Point, Virginia

The powered parachute pilot, Dave, is an expert in his field and provided an amazing experience. He went over the whole pre-flight check with me, explained how the take-off would occur, what we would do in flight, and how the landing would work. He asked if there were any questions, and made me feel totally at ease. Whether you are interested in experiencing a flight, ask questions about the sport, or seek recommendations on equipment, this is the place to go.

Allen Event Center

Reviewed By Bill O - Irving, Texas

Attended an Allen Americans game there. Have *many* times in the past and had a blast! This time halfway into the first period our seats buckled onto the floor, tossing us forward, resulting in spilled drinks and an entire order of nachos tossed on the people in front of us! We uprighted the seats, and called an usher but before he got to us they fell totally to the floor. He was quite apologetic and suggested we take any available seat "although all seats in this section are sold." (Thanks for the direction, dude.) We moved a row up, away from our family, nobody ever claimed their seats, and he came back in the second quarter and said that they would fix the seats. The End. No "can we replace the drinks and nachos you lost?" or anything else. Wow. Absolutely horrible customer service. I would avoid this venue for a while.

In-Sync Exotics

Reviewed By hebkram - usa

This place is just awesome. There is no glitz or glamour here. Raw muddy ground, all natural, huge cages filled with big cats. These animals are majestical to watch. My kids and the adults all enjoyed watching the big cat behaviors and interaction with one another. All the employees seemed sincerely concerned for the health and safety of the cats. They welcome volunteers to help out which is a great opportunity to get a more up-close account on the life of big cats. There were other small animals on the grounds. It’s a nice place to explore for a couple of hours. It’s not a huge park that you’d be exhausted of walking around in and the animals are close enough to each other that you are always excited to see what’s in the next section. Admission fees are low. Donate if you can for the conservation of these beasts.

Went to iPic for the new Spider-Man movie. Sat in the reserved seats for 2 and server was not great unfortunately. We placed order at bar and went and got food there after they buzzed us (instead of utilizing the assigned server) b/c he was...MoreThank you for reviewing iPic Theaters.

Blackland Prairie Raptor Center

Reviewed By Kathy C - Dallas, Texas

Love Love Love this Center! We got to sit through a very fun educational presentation. We were told the background story of each raptor which was wonderful. We were taught what not to do when we encounter these beautiful creatures and we got an up close look at them as well. There are trails you can walk through and plenty of picnic tables for lunch. Beautiful lake front surroundings. One of my very favorite parts was touching real wings and talons!! Amazing experience for us!! All of the volunteers were friendly, patient, and very informed.

Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary

Nature Reserve, garden, hiking trails and nature center provides an escape to nature.

Reviewed By Hollis P - Westampton, New Jersey

We needed to get outside on a beautiful winter day and decided on a visit to the Heard Natural Science Museum. Our first stop was at the visitor center to get tickets and a map. The fee of $50.00 was reasonable for four adults and two children. The center offers several exhibits on the main and lower floors. There is a small gift shop that is conveniently stocked with many items under $5.00. After exploring the inside exhibits, head outside to the trails. Be careful. You will encounter some scary animated dinosaurs along the way. There is a frontier town which is actually a group of playhouses. Live animals are also located near this area. There are several spots with picnic tables to enjoy lunch or a snack.

Heritage Hill Equestrian Center

Reviewed By Tim E - Dallas, Texas

DESCRIPTION
* Nice facility with super friendly owner and staff. The trail ride was a little uneventful and short, but it was completely safe and fun. After we were finished with the trail ride, the guide took us into the coral and taught my daughter and friends how to trot the horse. That was unexpected and something the girls enjoyed a lot.

PROS
* Only $25 for a 1 hour trail ride (great price)
* The staff works hard to make sure you feel comfortable and safe in the saddle
* The guide took us into the coral for practice before and after the ride

CONS
* Would like to see more trail variations. It may have been offered, but I am unaware
* It's about a 45 minute drive from the North Dallas area

Great outlet mall, love the selection of shops and the prices. It's been remodeled lately and there's more eating places in the center building. There's also more parking behind the mall which helps on weekends and holidays. My favorite stores: The North Face, Columbia, Nike, ASICS, Lucky Brand, MK, Perfumania and recently reopened Fossil. There have added more sitting areas with fireplaces and kids activities for those of you that don't love shopping so much. You won't be disappointed!

Community Park / WWII P.O.W. Camp

Reviewed By texaswillie - Dallas, Texas

The grounds are those that housed prisoners in World War II. I am aware that many not in that generation would not find this interesting, however to be at a site in the United States where these prisoners were held is quite interesting. There are no buildings remaining however there is a plaque, several acres of nice grounds and the old water tower. The historical plaque gives history of the area. The park is a short distance from the main street in Princeton and the entire area can be covered in a few minutes. There are some sports fields on the grounds, however don't let that take away form the historical significance.
