It is a great educational museum to learn about Gerald Ford, but is also interesting and intertaining. more on insiderpages.com

There is a lot to look at and if you have any questions most of the staff is very helpful. more on insiderpages.com

The exhibits change often and the location--right on the Grand River across from the Amway Grand Hotel and other attractions, make this a great destination or just as part of a weekend in the city of Grand Rapids. more on insiderpages.com

For a president who was never elected and never served a full term, this is a surprisingly good museum. more on insiderpages.com

In December, they put on a decent Christmas exhibit. more on insiderpages.com
