U.S. ARMY AIRBORNE & SPECIAL OPERATIONS MUSEUM REVIEWS

I have visited the Airborne & Special Operations Museum many times over the years and it never disappoints. They always maintain the displays in this museum so well and clean. Even though the museum is free of charge, they do have 2 donation bins, so please make sure you donate if you're able too... So if you ever find yourself in Fayetteville, North Carolina and you're looking for something to do. Pay a visit to the Airborne & Special Operations Museum to make memories, meanwhile learning of the sacrifices our soldiers have endured and their achievements. At this beautiful museum full of Airborne & Special Operations military history. Thanks to the Staff and Museum employees, that do such an amazing job maintaining such a great museum.

I had some friends visit from up north and they wanted to visit the museum. And honestly we were all surprised at the amount of detail and information provided. We were all expecting a small museum but we got the opposite. If you enjoy history and museum, I urge to checkout and support this place.

This is such a great museum!!! Thank you to all the staff who have put all their hard work into making this place great!!! We’ve been a few times and anytime family comes to visit. We take them and they love it.

CAPE FEAR BOTANICAL GARDEN REVIEWS

Had the most lovely afternoon here. Plenty of places all over to sit and read or work either in the sun or shade, under covers or in the open air, as well as multiple fountains, trees as far as the eye can see, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere overall. Saw butterflies and lizards, turtles and geese!! Would highly recommend. Tickets were $12 for adults, and they offer a membership as well! Great place for strolling and chatting with a friend, taking the family on an outing, or having personal reset time. Also had an adorable gift shop with lotions, cards, toys, stuffed animals, rocks, dried flowers, house decor, candles, wind chimes, books, and more.

I’ve been here numerous times and I love it during the springtime. This time my husband wasn’t able to attend with us, but the baby loved the trees, flowers, green grass and the cute little family of ducks/geese that we saw today! It’s clean, well kept and beautiful. It’s one of the best places in Fayetteville. It doesn’t even feel like you’re in Fayetteville-it’s peaceful and there’s so many different types of plants, trees, and flowers. 10/10 recommend.

Gorgeous! Equally beautiful as any of the most beautiful gardens in the world. Elegant. Tasteful. Large. Fun to explore. Lots of botanical variety. Lots of places to sit and relax and just be one with the beauty of the garden.

FASCINATE-U CHILDREN'S MUSEUM REVIEWS

This was easily the most affordable children’s museum we have ever been to. At first I wasn’t sure if my daughter was going to be entertained for long (it’s fairly small) bus she ended up having a blast and stayed for 3 hours. The toddler room in the back was probably her favorite part, but she also loved the grocery store, the fire poll, playing dress up, and driving the emergency vehicles. Overall the value for this place can’t be beat, and the gift store is incredibly affordable, unlock every other kids centric place. They have a whole shelf of things under $1. So you can get your little one something to remember the trip by without destroying your wallet.

This is such a wonderful place for kids to come and enjoy all sorts of fun activities. We could honestly be busy for hours and my son wouldn't get tired of it. We also enjoy the craft projects offered throughout the month. My son doesn't always sit still for them but it's nice that he can go off and play if he gets fidgety.

When I was a little girl my dad would take me here. I am now 35 years old and thinking of creating something similar on the west coast that children may enjoy. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
