Do I need to get tickets in advance for a weekday visit in September? Don't know if they limit the number of people.

I don’t believe so. We visited in peak vacation season over the Fourth of July holiday and were able to get in without a problem by just walking in. I don’t know if they have a daily limit or not.

Hi Lisa! What time of day did you go? We are planning a Saturday visit which I am regretting after reading your review. We won't get there until after 2pm so we are thinking it won't be as crowded.
A:
We arrived around 1pm on Saturday the 11th. It was crowded the entire time we were there, but still worth the visit. I hope you have a great time!
