Holyoke Heritage State Park offers a rich glimpse into the city's industrial history and culture. Visitors can explore the Visitors Center's exhibits, visit the Children's Museum, and marvel at the restored Holyoke Merry-Go-Round. The park also houses the Volleyball Hall of Fame, and visitors can enjoy a stroll along the canals that once powered the mills. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the park's grounds provide a lovely setting by the river. With a modern playground, a splash pad, and fast-paced carousel rides, the park caters to both history enthusiasts and families seeking an enjoyable outdoor experience.
The staff at the Merry go round could be a little nicer in my opinion but overall the place is amazing and part of Holyoke history. The kids love it

I stopped in here to stay warm while waiting for my family to show up at the childrens museum. The staff was really nice and friendly and it was a good way to spend an hour. Interesting stuff
