If you come to soaring eagle resorts or are in MT pleasant area check out this hidden gem. The museum inside has a great selection of displays and was worth the visit to learn some tribal history. Nice gift shop as well. Glad we checked it out!

Nice museum, somewhat lacking in artifacts but tells a good story. Absolutely love that the white man pissing his money away across the street pays for a people attempting to reclaim their heritage.

Lovely Indian Museum. There is a gift shop where you can buy authentic Indian made items. We toured the museum and there was a nominal charge. As senior citizens we paid $3.75 each. I understand that they also have computers where you can research your Indian ancestry. Very nice facility. While we were there, there was an elementary school class visiting so we got to attend a presentation of the history and meaning of tribal dances.

I spent several hours here, reading and listening to everything. It is set up in a chronological timeline with the seven prophecies as anchors in time. I love museums and cultural centers like this; places that have been developed by the people represented therein. It can really open the mind. If part of the reason you go to museums is for the gift shop, rest assured, they also have a very nice gift shop.

Very emotive, sad but inspiring visit. A wonderful history of the survival and preservation of a culture, tradition and race. Emphasises that we are all human and need to respect each other and our differences.

Love getting my learn on in the Ziibiwing center. The historical displays and exhibits are very thorough and easy to follow. Love coming to the Ziibiwing for open community events as well. Good place to learn about the SCIT.

Museum gives a top notch experience, but community feels disconnected and not enough activities draw from "actual" Native American tradition: knowledge, food history, spirituality, architecture and relation to external Native groups.

Excellent facility for small meetings, helpful staff and good food. Also a nice museum and gift shop with reasonably priced, unique and authentic items for sale. Given their product offerings, it appears they work with local artisans as well.

If you are close to the area you should for sure stop in at the Ziibiwing center. If you are at the casino/hotel, a shuttle can take you to the center and back, just ask the front desk.
You learn so much and there is an excellent gift shop. The staff is welcoming and wonderful. If you want to bring a group and schedule a tour they do an amazing job.

This image is beautiful and teachers a lot about the tribes history and how it has been effected over the years. It's really good for class trips or anyone that wants to lessen more about the history of the local tribe.

Wonderful museum to learn the local history and culture. Detailed exhibits outline the importance of transportation, family, food, animals, etc. to the Native Americans in Central Michigan. Our guide was very knowledgeable. A self guided tour is also available.
