Grafton Lakes State Park Welcome Center — Attraction in Town of Grafton

We have stopped by the Center twice since summer, both times a great experience. The Center itself is FANTASTIC, I was proud to see my tax dollars at work through displays that blend fun and education.

There is a real bear skin 🧸 to touch, a live turtle 🐢, binoculars for birding right outside the window, picnic area, nature walk, fireplace surrounded with log furniture, activity room, and a play area for kids.
