STAMFORD MUSEUM & NATURE CENTER REVIEWS

Came here with my family. We enjoyed ourselves 100%. The location and grounds are beautiful. The animal and wildlife look happy and well looked after. I never imagined there would be otters here! My daughter loved that part as well as the playground, I loved the art gallery as well as paying a visit to the cows! It was a very enjoyable day.

Reallllly awesome place for kids and adults alike. Beautiful grounds and my son pet a baby goat, a Llama and a horse here! There is also an amazing otter that they feed every day and I recommend bringing your kid to watch the show.

Lovely spot run by lovely folks who seem to take pride in taking care of the grounds and the animals that live there. The prices were pretty reasonable all things considered. My kids loved it and we will be back.

BARTLETT ARBORETUM & GARDENS REVIEWS

An amazing natural getaway with a wide variety of trees, gardens, and trails. With no entry fee, this is the best place to go for peaceful walks. These trails are dog-friendly and all of the people I interacted with here are welcoming such as the gardeners who frequent the space as well as the staff who manage it and organize events. Highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area.

Took a group of kids. Trails are easy and well marked. Stopped by potters field, which they'd never heard of. Good conversation starter. Lots of wildflowers in June. The kids also liked the playground.

I can't believe this place is so big, so beautiful, so peaceful and free. Oh yes, most beautiful things in life are free.

CURTAIN CALL REVIEWS

I am writing to give a testimonial to Adam Goodman. He has grown Purple Cow Cleaners into a first-class cleaning service in a very short time. Adam's background and business savvy ensure his clients are happy and his staff is first-class. Because of Adam, I wholeheartedly recommend Purple Cow Cleaners whether you need a short one-and-done or a weekly cleaning service to make your home and your life sparkle.

This venue is ON a golf course which threw me, so FYI. Plenty of parking. Small theater, Kinda pricey tickets, but extremely nice!! We recently saw "SpongeBob the musical" which was absolutely amazing. It had NO business being as good of a production as it was. I definitely recommend seeing a show here if you have the opportunity.

It has been a pleasure enjoying all the wonderful performances at Curtain Call for many years. They offer affordable tickets, especially for seniors. If you haven’t had the opportunity to see a show, I recommend that you do so in the near future.
