Still as amazing ad it was when I was here as a child. Great place for unique shopping and historical experiences for families and school groups alike. Great museum, and lots of opportunities to learn about historic Ohio. Its a great place to visit on a girls trip or with your children.

My group ranging in age from adult to 6 enjoyed learning Ohio history and how things were accomplished before modern times. The presenters and craftsman did an excellent job showing how printing presses work, broom making, black smith work, looming (making rugs), doctors worked and lived , and schools worked. I would highly recommend this place for a day stroll through history with time to relax.

I especially liked the canal boat ride, but they need more than one restaurant.

Roscoe is a look into canal villages of the past. Enjoy a ride on the canal boat for a glimpse of the past. Take a tour of Roscoe for a historic lesson. Eat at the Warehouse restaurant for great food and enjoy excellent drinks downstairs at Lock 27. Canal days festival are the best time to visit Roscoe.

We arrived at 2:30, so there wasnt much time to see all of it, but from what we did see, we plan on returning. There are tours available to see inside historic buildings, beautifully maintained shops, restaurants, and gardens, and a canal boat tour nearby. How to the welcome center 1st to see all the options available.

Went there during the Stay Safe Ohio order and a majority of the places were closed. However it’s a cool historical village to walk through. My daughter got a kick out of seeing the window display of Disney’s Lady and the Tramp at the local pet store.It’s about 1 hour drive from Columbus so its a definitely a good day trip from Central Ohio.Definitely will return when the state is finally reopened.

Always enjoy spending an afternoon here with my family. So lucky to have it in my own backyard. Lots of great local shops, from gifts clothes homemade dog treats bulk foods classic candies. Not to mention the museum and interactive educational history exhibits. Plus many other festivals through the year such as the Corvette festival and the Apple butter festival. If your local or even farther one out dont miss an opportunity to stop here.

It was great!!! We did the Living History tour and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the village. Food and souvenirs are reasonably priced. Lots of parking space. We only wish the main gift shop had stayed open a little later.

Very nice place for a leisurely day trip!! Several shops to explore with an excellent variety of merchandise, fantastic ice cream counter () which also has many food items available to purchase, adequate close parking, and pleasant, cozy, village atmosphere for leisurely walking and shopping. Warehouse restaurant a good place for lunch or dinner. AND particularly nice are the folks/store owners in the shops! Without a doubt, they are some of the nicest and most friendly people my husband and I have ever met!!! So down to earth, welcoming, friendly - you felt like you had known them for years! Definitely a place where everyone should visit!!

Lovely little historical village, with tours available through some of the historical buildings, and rides on a canal boat, so you can get a feeling of what life was like here in the early 1800s. Roscoe Village also has many quaint little shops (including a candy store with every kind of candy you can think of, and some you havent!) and a truly marvelous museum. All the shop proprietors are friendly, and some of the shops set out water bowls for visiting pets. Also, dont forget to pick up a jar or two (or three or four) of apple butter!

Not really worth the money for the historic life tour. There are only a few buildings that have history experts and a couple of these were closed. Some experts had limited knowledge of the time period. Everyone was friendly and easy to talk to.

This is a fun day out. It is located right in the center of everything. They have a lot of historical information. They even show a 15 minute movie. After you are done here make sure to check out the village itself. A lot of cute little shops, and plenty of really good places to eat.

Great day trip from Pittsburgh, Columbus, or anywhere in Northeast Ohio. Enjoy the unique stores and restaurants on Whitewoman Street, the main drag of the restored historic village. Then head over to the canal display, about a 20-minute walk on the other side of the parking lot. Finally, dont forget the Intriguing and well-presented museum in The Visitor Center. Huge parking lot behind the center will accommodate any size RV

My family comes here every year for their Annual Apple Butter Stirrin Festival. I hear their Christmas displays are also spectacular. They have many small museums and educational exhibits too, so its a good place for children. Their general stores have lots of great produce, cheeses, spices, and sweets. My husband and I stock up on the amazing homemade fudge, apple butter, pumpkin butter, candies, and the extremely reasonable spices and dried herbs. We also love the unique local companies that come from all over to sell items outside in the tents.This is a great place to bring your family and friends, the old-world vibe that makes it all the better. Many people also bring their dogs (well behaved ones), which makes it feel even more welcoming.
