Your store is wonderful and we wished we would have had enough time to stay a full day at the village!

We have relatives in the Holland area and always come to visit since 1972. In order to keep the Texas-Michigan connection, we came up to visit this summer and I took my 16 year old daughter to the traditional trip to Dutch Village. I love to watch the candle making and wooden shoe demonstration. We enjoyed it and had many laughs taking pictures with the giant wooden shoes. I hope to retake her photo in those shoes for years to come.

I've worked with the groups of children for a long time. Over the years, I have taken the kids to visit your village many times. But I wanted to tell you that I've never had as wonderful a time as we had this year. The staff was very helpful as well as engaged with the children throughout our visit. We were able to relax as we explored the Dutch heritage & traditions you share, so everyone was able to learn so much more. The petting farm worker was very patient & spent extra time talking with the kids, which so many of them couldn't wait to share with their parents that night. The younger group of children were chattering about it yet today as they wanted to make a poster about their visit. Whatever has caused these changes to occur, please keep going. I want to come back with my own personal family for a visit. Where else could we find such family-friendly surroundings and gracious hosts? Thank you for a memorable day!

When i went to dutch village this year with my family i had an amazing time i met some amazing and funny people who worked there, one who was named Mark. he was really nice and funny he was showing how they made wooden shoes! i would have loved to get his email so we could chat cause all the people there were wonderful!!! everyone should go here at least once in there lives if not for the tulip times but for the amazing people that work there!!

"I have been to the village a number of times starting when I was 4 years old, I am now 43.  Every time I travel to Michigan I make an attempt to at least drive by to see its wonderful buildings.  This was one of my mother’s favorite places to go and the summer after her death I visited the Dutch village.  To my surprise and heart felt joy, since my mother planned and was suppose to be on that trip with us, in one of the buildings sat a pair of wooden shoes that had the name Sue on them and this was my mothers name.  It is a place well worth visiting."

"I love your website. We started coming to the Dutch Village back in 1960. I am now 53 and have great memories. We would always stop on our way from Kansas City to the homestead in Leelanau County. I only wish we could roll back time when it wasn't crowded. I hope you prosper for many years to come. You have left many memories across the country. I have brought my kids to Dutch Village as well.

"I had a wonderful experience during my visit to Dutch Village today. I was truly impressed with the excellent service and friendly staff. I am a travel writer at Epinions.com and I posted a very favorable review about the park at http://www0.epinions.com/content_239659617924."

"I lived in Grand Rapids for 2 years. Before I moved there, while living in California, I was told by a telemarketer that I should check out Tulip Time in Holland. I did, 2 years in a row. I totally loved it, and one of these years, I am going back!"

"Our shipment arrived safely and very timely! Thank you very much for taking such good care of our order. Our daughter got a lot of compliments on her costume during the Queen's Birthday Reception last night in Chicago. Kind regards and again many thanks for your assistance."

"The Dutch Village was our favorite stop of the weekend! What a gorgeous weekend, village, and experience. Thank you for all you do that helped make our road trip a success. My children, husband, and I had a wonderful time!! Even my four year old son said his favorite thing was 'all the beautiful flowers - some even smelled good.' The Village is so family friendly and many photo opportunities abound! Thanks again and many wishes for a successful, though tiring I'm sure, week."

"Dear Family, I just typed in the name dutch village on the internet and I came right away at your side. It is lovely to see that Dutch people are doing well in the U.S.A. But the old land is also oke. We have been in your country only one time, but not further than New York and Miami. Maybe next time (if there is enough money) we will visit your town. Bye Yvonne"

"Excellent place to spend our time. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed all the gardens."

"We thought the presentations were very interesting. Keep going - well done!"

"Next time we come back we'll bring the grandkids. Thanks for a nice afternoon."

"Excellent presentation, loved the staff and your huge selection of Dutch products."

"Everything was great, well worth the price of admission. Thanks!"

"We were trying to find something to do with the kids on a rainy day. What a find! Everyone had a great time. We'll be back!"
