We have been to a lot of Fire museums both nationally and internationally and this was the a very nice little museum. A firefighter will take you through to your the few tricks they have and let the kids ring the bells for fun. There is also a nice interactive exhibit of a burned room, which is educational and teaches kids the importance of fire safety. The play area is clean and well maintained, with a fire pole and two different tricks to pretend to drive. I also liked the interactive fire hydrant, the first we have seen. Plenty of free parking in the driveway but also paid street parking is available. All in all it is a good activity and I would say good for anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours. They also offer group discounts and birthday party options.

The staff welcomed us at the door and let the kids ring a 100 year old bell! The fireman dressed in his gear and explained how it protects him. They had a great display of a home and fire hazard. They kids loved the play area and books about firetrucks. The Museum offers birthday party options too.

Tried taking a small group there today. Worst experience ever. I will not go back again nor would I ever take my kids. It was very embarrassing.
