Reviews of West Parry Sound District Museum (Tourist Attraction)

Masterchard

Scenic grounds with a fantastic view!

Museum is small but the climb up the tower was nice. Would be better if they had glass rather than metal cage for safety. The hike along the railway was nice.

Judy Christenson

Great location and loved the fashion exhibit

Ian Blainey

Small and simple exhibits don't provide much interest for the admission price. The lookout tower however provides a great view of the Parry Sound area.

Don Muir

Extremely informative local area museum. Do clime the tower for a great view of the harbour.

Lynne Tyrie

Worth going up the tower. The museum and surrounding garden are lovely.

Sherry Johnson

We enjoyed this museum. It showcased a lot of moments in history from the local area. There are beautifully maintained gardens surrounding this site and it's worth the drive to head up the fire tower :)

Gavin Doran

Went for night shots on tower. Amazing views. Even at night. Bring a flashlight if your doing this at night.

The tower was great. A one of a kind experience. I'm glad it's open even if the museum isn't

The museum was closed unfortunately when we got there, however I give 5stars for the area which is beautiful and the view that you get when you climb the tower.

David Coles

Nice little museum with many local facts and interesting features. Great lookout tower also.

Sean O'Hare

The museum was closed when we visited, but the grounds were really nice and we enjoyed the views from the top of the tower. We hiked along the rotary trail to get up to the museum and it was very pleasant. The trails, tower, and museum are fairly simple, but worth stopping and checking out.

I did not go in person but I did contact the museum for assistance with a newspaper article. A young lady name Amy assisted me and although they did not have the article I was looking for Amy transcribed the very poor copy I did have so I was able to learn the information I needed and lord knows my eyes aren't what they used to be. Thank you Amy, your customer service was outstanding! Chrisitne
