- PrincermanOtsego, MN911 contributionsI did both a game and a tour of this place. The tour was well done and you get to see anything the players aren't currently using. They spoil their hockey players with every amenity possible. They showed us an organ they use as a back bar and it even plays. The arena is well cared for and I had a fantastic lower level seat. There are ample high quality food and beverage options all over the arena. Well done UND, well done!Written October 29, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Patrick MThompson, Canada130 contributionsPool area is very large could use a few more places for seating
Pool is very humid should be vented a bit better

Parking is ample, and entrance and exit were easy for the World of Outlaws event on 16 July, 2021. There is the usual sporting event food and drink, and concession stands selling the usual array of t-shirts. This particular evening featured stock car and sprint racing in addition to the late modifieds running in the Outlaw series. All seats were general admission for this race, and cost $32 purchased beforehand, and $35 at the event itself. All races were short, the Outlaws crowning the winner after only 40 laps. This makes for a pretty early evening; to our disappointment, we were back at our hotel before 11 PM.
Be sure and bring high quality earplugs if you choose to attend a similar event at this or any other track. High performance engines generate a lot of noise!Written July 21, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We knew about the devastating floods in the past and this was to place to come and visualize. We walk along the beautiful river walk and stopped at the Flood Memorial Monument. WOW. Water that high? YES. Quick and easy walk, worth your time to go see and have a point of reference to talk with the locals.Written November 9, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JulieBeanNeosho, MO180 contributionsMy husband and I arrived at the official closing of the museum, but we walked around the grounds for free. There are plenty of plaques that explain what you are looking at for each of the buildings. We tried to peer in some of the windows, without much luck. haha I'd like to go back when it was open. Note: It is free just to walk around, without the tour.
One of the buildings is the oldest building in Grand Forks. It is a log building that once served as the Post Office. There are period homes, furnished from each particular time frame. Nicely kept grounds. Fantastic picture taking opportunities. Picnic area and gazebo in front of the buildings.Written August 15, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There are many miles of paved path for walkers, joggers, runners, bike riding, scooters, skateboarding, rollerblading, or even pushing a baby carriage. Yeah, there is something for everyone! Picnics! Fishing! Concerts! The 1997 Flood Obelisk Memorial! Art on the Red! Many parks in the area are incorporated into the paved Greenway Path. You’ll just have to check it out for yourself.Written October 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- ShanOCGrand Forks, ND11,315 contributionsEvery time I walk through the doors of this antique store, it’s like taking a little trip back in time. I saw so many things that brought up distant memories from my childhood. All these memories were good memories. The part that really gets me... objects of my childhood are now considered antiques?? Haha! Oh boy! Stop on in! Take your time walking around the store. There are hidden treasures everywhere. You just might miss something extraordinary if you blow through here. Hopefully you’ll find a memory that puts a smile on your face.Written June 11, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Goldie_in_MassMethuen, MA60 contributionsFirst time coming here and since it is so close to Easter the place was loaded with extra options. Had to try the "chippers" available is both milk chocolate and dark chocolate ...excellent ! Plus tried a bunch of other chocolates as well ( hard to resist !) Very good quality chocolate, smooth and not too sweet like store bought waxy over sweet candies. A must when in the area. We will be back !Written March 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- FamilyDad2013Becker, MN499 contributionsWe attended this venue for a robotics competition and were generally impressed with its cleanliness, location and how the spectators were very close to the game field. Because it is such a large area the acoustics were not the best. Concessions were moderately priced and overall the workers were very friendly!Written March 5, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
