Reviews of Morningstar Mill (Museum)

We Love this place and visit often. Great hiking trails, lots of history. Fun on weekends with volunteers to answer questions.

Beautiful

Great piece of history about the Mill and its operation. This is run through the volunteers and donations so be sure to have some cash on hand to help them keep this bit of history alive. We met a lovely man named Terry who gave us a tour of the mill ( you got to check out the turbine) and you can get a great look at the falls from a window in the lower level. You can also jump on the Laura Secord Legacy trail a few feet away or the Bruce trail. A great spot for a weekend day trip in the outdoors.

GREAT HIKE BEAUTIFUL FALLS

Luis Pontes

What a great spot for a fun afternoon. The water was warm and fun. The hike was beautiful.

Eri Mott Nakahara

They won't allow you to get to the bottom as it's way too dangerous to venture down. But, it's beautiful regardless!

Javier Solano

Great place to visit in summer, also alot of history, and great view

Theo Dueck

It's a long, difficult hike to get to all 3 waterfalls. There is a route that is family friendly but it's a long walk down the trail and a long hard trek back up the river to see the first waterfall. The "main access" I guess, would be the big rope, but it is not for kids or even some adults. That access is invisible from the trail so keep an eye over the edge to find it, it's 5 minutes or less down the trail. Risky though..

This historic Mill is a great place to visit while in Niagara. There is parking, ample scenic views and feels like taking a step back in time.

Mike Robinson

Very picturesque - a definite must see if you are visiting the Niagara area.

Patricia Mendoza

Received a great tour of a working grist mill from the 1800's. A nice hiking and mountain biike trail begins or ends at the mill.

S Thomas

Natural beauty and history in one place.

Sanje Ab

Historic site worth visiting Morning star mill and the morning star family house. There are volunteer staff members who are very positive and willing to help. Entrance is free but there is a dmall donation box and it is a good way to say thank you. The site located on top of the decew Falls. Can get a wonderful view of the waterfall through the glass window. Can buy floor onsite. Portable toilets available on site. There are few picnic tables available.

Maria Concetta Montagna

the work of the volunteers is fantastic, they keep this beautiful place alive, I was really fascinated.

Sheldon Macdonald (Shelcase)

Love this little hideaway. Beautiful place to take some awesome couple photos in St Catharines

Brandon Bullock

Fun historical site for the whole family. Free tours of the mill and the original house built in 1895. Beautiful hiking trail right beside the mill also.

Dan Flores

Fantastic place to spend the day, Awesome

Great museum and historical house and old flour mill. The hike down to the falls a challenge but well worth it steep hills not for small kids or small pets not use to steep hills . But spectacular views

It's always a beautiful stroll throughout the park. I love taking in the fresh air and the history. The scenery is absolutely beautiful and a perfect place to take photos

Daniel “DankDruid” Fenning

Natural History, nuff said!

Warran Grin

What a beautiful place to go for a hike! There are trails for all skill levels. Either take the cliff for some rock climbing fun, or the long path down the Bruce Trail for a nice long stroll. There is also a lot of history in the area. Make sure you take a walk inside the home and water mill!

Jason M

Beautiful place. Wife and I had our wedding photos taken here.

Angel Ayotte

Relaxing, harmonious peaceful

Christopher Ross (rossgiftscom)

Insanely cute! A real hidden gem in Niagara.

Kim Kirchner

Nice and picturesque area for historical features and access for hiking around Decew Falls!

Gordon Ng

If you visit Decew Falls you must visit this place. Take the free tour and learn something about local history and the volunteers that keep it operating. If you can leave a little donation.

Dougie Jefford

Super nice place beautiful and clean

Ben Mackie

Absolutely beautiful area and the mill was absolutely fantastic, I was able to buy amazing flour from there and it made the most lovely bread!

Oleksiy Markunin

Looks like a nice place. Walking trails are open. However, the parking lot is not. No place to park nearby as well..(

Chintan Patel

Awesome heritage Mill to visit. Roots go back to 18th century. Volunteers will be there eagerly explaining all the stuff. Mind blowing mechanism and scientific perfectness in the design of the mill!

Hiked Decew falls. Always lovely

Alexander Preiss

This is a great place to see a piece of Niagara history and explore the nature trails nearby. Everything is well preserved and the views are really pretty, especially if the weather is nice.

Naz M.

Amazing people volunteer here!

Liz Amendola

Gorgeous scenery, hiking, history! I did not get a chance to see the tour but I hope to make it back and do that. Even on a cold day this was a good spot to come see quickly on our adventure in NOTL.

Mike Schofield

Excellent location to come in contact with some of the history of the area in the early 1900s. A working grist mill with guided interpretations daily (summer) - and live flour grinding demonstrations open to the public one Saturday every month. A restored MIller's home - come and see how the folks lived and worked. Also features Decew Falls for viewing, picnic tables and access to the Bruce Trail. A great family outing.

JIM LEVA

Great place. Love the history. Great place to spend a few hours with the family.

Shelly Mohammed-Khan

The view of Decew falls from the museum is spectacular. If you are going to do the hike down to the falls, be prepared for some treacherous climbing down the cliffs.

We came here to see the waterfall and didn’t realize there was a whole historic museum experience. It was very informative and the grounds were beautiful

이범

(Translated) It's a historically valuable place and it asks for the kindness of the guides. It was also good to buy flour that served as a donation. (Original) 역사적으로 가치가 있는 곳이고 안내하는 분들의 친절함이 묻어납니다. 기부를 겸한 밀가루 구입도 좋았습니다.

Mike Melanson

Very nice place to walk and take pictures

Ashley Stokey

A must see piece of history!

Devin Vanderlaan

You are able to swim at the bottom if you make the hike down! Also there is a second Falls after the mill about 1.5 km away.

Jennifer Norton-Howe

Watched the mill in action ????

Rick Harrison

A very nice spot to stop and see an historic flour mill. I almost feel jealous of the Morningstar family being able to live in these beautiful surroundings.

Ashley Collison

Love this place especially on weekends when you can go inside the mill

Ankush Chander

A hidden gem. Very fascinating history.

Justin Howe

Friendly knowledgable staff volunteers, remarkable experience for children and adults alike. Seeing the mill in operation with being able to acquire the fresh made flour is living history made fun and accessible.
