“As we sat down for lunch the sun welcomed us. We were finally exploring in a space that wasn't home or a hiking trail. As we sat down near an enormous robotic hand overlooking a fossil dig site, the kiddos reminded me of how school-like it all was. We snickered over failed field trips and were reminded of all the friends we missed!! The Science Mill did a fantastic job ensuring our safety while inside the building and out. They were prepared and ready to over compensate for all our mask malfunctions! Many thanks for all the fun!! We're excited to come back.” -Growing Up Childcare, via Facebook

“Wonderfully well done. Our grandkids, ages 6 and 7, declared it to have been best day ever! We had to drag them away after 3 hours.” -Martha, via Google Reviews

"So much fun and exploration to be had here!! They are doing EVERYTHING to keep guests safe while still having the ability for hands-on learning! All the staff were helpful and added to the joy of our visit! Can't wait to go back.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -Chanelle, via Google Reviews

“We had a great time. We thought the cleaning procedures were excellent and felt safe. Our grands were young so they enjoyed the outdoors activities the most. We couldn't stay long so will need to return for the full experience. Thanks a bunch for your attention to details. Stay safe!” -Kathy, via email

“LOOOOOVED IT. So sad we don’t live in Johnson City or we would be there as often as possible.” -Visitor Survey Response

“I took my grandson and niece on a Saturday afternoon. They are both 5 years old and loved it. There are so many hands on things for kids of all ages to do. Many different areas including a large outdoor area with even more fun things. The Science Mill was taking extreme care with cleanliness, so I felt very comfortable being there. The staff is friendly and very helpful. We were there for 2 1/2 hours and the kids wanted to stay longer, but they were closing. We just moved to the area and will definitely be going back.” -Maria, Trip Advisor Review

“Took our 5 year old grandson yesterday and he absolutely loved it. Staff was great, eager to share knowledge, constantly sanitizing, and always friendly. Lots of hands on exhibits both inside and out. Perfect way to spend a couple of hours safely in these tough times.” -Trip Advisor Review

“Even better than expected. We stayed an hour longer than planned and all of us enjoyed it from 10 yrs old to 60. The Covid precautions were done well with limited visitors and gloves to use the hands on exhibits.” -Trip Advisor Review
