    Surprisingly wheelchair accessible

    They still have the original old lifts to transport heavy cotton. The lifts work and are spacious enough for a wheelchair to turn around in. It was great because the lifts felt like it added to the experience not took away from it. My powerchair could get around just fine but some of the flooring was a little uneven but didn’t effect me but might be be a problem depending on your wheelchair
