The village was spectacular, complete with a young bride to be, a shrewish older woman, and a lot of men with fun tools and great costumes. Most had great dialogue-we learned many things. Heft one of those muskets!
Hot and dusty, would do it all over again! Loved it. Well worth the price.
Suggestions: go early in the day to the village. The heat is intense, shade mostly in the homes. Spend time in the Native American area asking questions, poking into all the bags and bins, and watchingthe work. These folks don't "stay in character", which is so great. They can tell you about their costumes and who made what. Those loinclouts are freaking awesome. They make meals and eat them.

Blue star family discount. Thank you!
Not easy for wheeled conveyances, we saw a wheelchair struggling going down the hill that is "main st" in the village. Paths are gravelly. Lesser slope outside the palisade, smoother surface, but hot in the sun. Lots of walking.
One of the best historical experiences we've had in the USA.

Native American folks were the best part, and I grew up in the West with lots of tribal experiences. Really informative and spontaneously willing to share information. And handsome people!

The crafters are knowledgeable and mostly kind. One apparently forgot we were paying to be there. Talk to the Roach makers! Delicate and exquisite products, fun to find out their quills come from my home state bc our porkies have longer quills!

We did not explore the farm fields and shore area, but wish we had. Definitely worth the trip!
