We love Shaker Village- it's beautiful, the staff are friendly and helpful, and there are so many ways to learn! I love bringing my kids here because they always learn something new! We've attended music talks and learned about sheep shearing. We've had tea there and made rustic ornaments. We've done farm days- they always have something happening. It's always well done, enjoyable, and educational! Visit if you haven't!!

A very nice place to visit! And an awesome waterfall! It was cool learning about how wool was made and dyed. My nephew enjoyed seeing all the baby goats, sheep and calf. Would definitely recommend!

If you want to step back in time, check this place out. The village has a lot of old buildings with people portraying folks from the past. If you want, you can rent a room and stay for awhile. They have a very nice restaurant on site and a nice size gift shop with items made there. They have park like areas you can drive to on the property. It's best to go during warm weather because of walking between building and around the area. They do have a few special events throughout the year. A reasonable, but small, fee is charged. This is a historic place and can be an educational adventure. Sometimes the local schools take field trips here.

A great Valentine’s Day overnight getaway! We stayed in the Old Stone Bldg and found it to be very nice and comfortable! Enjoyed the special treat of champagne and chocolate dipped strawberries in our room! Staff was very friendly and welcoming! The food was unique and very tasty! We will return again for the carriage ride and boat ride!Thank you for an enjoyable outing!

Questions & Answers

When are fall leaves at their peak there? We stayed there recently, and I think it must be beautiful when the leaves change colors! It was the first time we'd been there, and we really enjoyed experiencing everything they have to offer.
