    Loved my visit here! From Bob-Lo lore to things brought up from the bottom to watching a huge cargo ship via periscope as it navigated past the island to playing with fresnel lenses from lighthouses to learning about luxury cruising on the river to tooting a boat's whistle to learning about semaphore flags, pulleys and blocks. Every minute was great. Would love to stay all day and read everything. Attached are some of my photos.

    A beautiful and important history resource. Their natural history and resources displays are also important. Models of shipping through the centuries as well as a wheelhouse to enter and play/work in makes this place a wonderful day out. Picnic and fishing facilities are nearby.

    Very pleasantly suprized. I expected it to be nice and interesting, but small. Probably twice as big as I anticipated from front. Interactive exhibits for you and old. Highly recommended for anyone.

    Good thing my brother in law Sean didn't go with us or he'd still be there reading.

    Unique museum about Detroit's history as a major Great Lakes port. Features one of a kind handmade models of old ships. The building integrates the pilot house from a retired Great Lakes freighter.

    Such a great place loaded with all kinds of information about the Great Lakes and the shipping industry. The staff was also very informative as well. A really cool part was that near the back they had the wheel house from and old freighter. It was awesome, everything was still intact and you would check it all out. Worth a visit!
