Really nice facility full of rare and unique items and vehicles. The staff were friendly and bathrooms clean. Really worth stopping in and learning about the area and fire history. They also have a Japanese fire fighting game that can be played.

This is a cool museum. I feel like I learned a lot while my kiddo got to explore. My guest and I had strollers and that was okay because they have elevators inside. Clean bathrooms. Drinking fountains. A couple of video games. I even invited my friends to make it a playdate. Three floors filled with history and actual fire trucks. Some items kids could touch and climb on. They had a coloring area and a video area. It looks like they host private events here too. I am not from the area so I wasn't familiar with where to park. I was sure if the street was for permit parking but I was able to park at Frog island park and walk. It was less than a 5-minute walk so it worked out great for me. If you forgot snacks it's a gas station across the street. Restaurants/ farmers markets down the road. We hung out here for several. hours and the kids found something new and exciting every couple of minutes. I would definitely visit again.
