A neat little place with lots of odds and ends for the kids (and adults) to play with. There's definitely a lot to explore on the grounds which could occupy a full day or multiple visits. Come in from the north for better access; the east entrance (a seasonal road) was steep and questionable after rains so we opted to turn around and try a different way in our minivan.

The Raven Hill Discovery Center is a place that is phenomenal for children ages 3-99+. Going to the center is a 15 minute drive from the infamous SkyBridge at Boyne City. When you first arrive, you initially are presented with some small amounts of construction taking place and plenty of parking. It is a beautiful property with an engaging indoor center for all ages. There are multiple areas of hands on experiences, and an animal room that is ran by the sweetest lady who will tell you stories that will make you laugh. They take in exotic animals that can no longer be cared for and allows all ages to interact and learn. After going through the indoor portion, there is a map to guide you through the many hands on exhibits outside. The most amazing parts I thought were the hand built cedar treehouse and the fabulous kaleidoscope planter. The views on this property are breathtaking and have made for wonderful memories. Take a chance and come explore. I will happily come back and invite all who visit this area to see this beautiful treasure.

Fantastic destination for science, nature, & historical learning. Their current geological exhibit: Under Michigan & Beyond is fascinating!

Raven Hill has multiple displays and programs showing the connection between art, history, and science. The owner Cheri showed me the press collection, fiber studio, and the discovery center showing the evolution of technology through time! I want to visit again to experience all the outdoor walks and displays. The Center is geared toward kids but I had a great time as a lone adult.

I'm part of Big Brothers Big Sisters and took my little sister to this today. We both had a wonderful time, spent 3 hours there between the hands on exhibits, the many animals (my little sister got to put a snake around her neck) as well as outside exhibits. Well worth the $10.00 each entry fee. Highly recommend!
