This is located just around the block from Soaring Eagle Casino. The casino shuttle will even take you there. You can even use your comp dollars to pay for admission. Only 3.50 for senior citizens. 6.50 adults. If you like history and especially indian america history this is the place to go. It took us only 3 hours to go... More

You owe it to yourself to see this center - it is a chance to immerse yourself into a Tribe's culture, ways of life, governing, beliefs, etc., that is a massive history lesson for us all. The sights & sounds are captivating - this has got to be one of the finest museum experiences you'll see.

We've been to many Native American cultural centers around the country and this is by far the best we've seen. So much thought went into the displays and the narrations. The size is perfect. Not a dinky little museum with some artifacts; not so large that things are repeated over and over. It holds your interest from beginning to end.... More

The Center gives you a history of the tribe of Indians who settled this area with beautiful stations that guide you through the museum and narrates in their language as well as English. A spiritual experience and must see when you visit Mt. Pleasant.

Fascinating presentation of the history, mythology, and culture of Michigan's Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. I had never been particularly interested in such matters, but one visit to this museum changed all that. Definitely worthy of repeat visits and an excellent destination when cabin fever strikes during one of those long, cold Michigan winters, especially because entry is free!

The Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe has left no detail unturned. From the architecture of the building itself to everything inside, it all has meaning. The permanent exhibit warrants visits and revisits, and the changing exhibit is continually fresh and new. Of course everyone comes to the area for the casino (which is also well worth the trip), but the Ziibiwing... More

Most visitors come for the nearby casino and do not glance in the direction of this attractive building just to the south of the hotel-casino complex. It is worth repeated visits. Modeled to reflect a Native American lodge, the main entry leads to a welcoming hallway. To the right, special exhibits are shown, photography, artifacts, private collections, etc. To the... More
