  • We left their winter wonderland feeling so bad. Seeing all these animals being exposed to cold weather conditions that they would never experience in the wild was depressing. Tiger, lion, and jaguar....  more

  • The Beast was great. The kids loved it and gave us ample time to feed the animals. The tour guide gave us insight on all the animals in the park. We all had fun.

  • Visited today for the first time since they opened a few years ago. Loved how much it expanded and how healthy the animals look. It was great being able to see the animals as well. My reasoning for 4 stars was the staffs riding around on the gators. They drive extremely fast for a place full of kids walking around. The staff also weren’t the politest when asking our 2 year old to move for them to continue flying around the park. The drive through safari was great and we all loved that experience.
  • The family and I went there yesterday. The kids loved every part of the zoo. From feeding the goat's, sheep and giraffe too the bounce house. My son loved the tiger and lions. It's a very well kept and clean place. There is plenty of things to do with the kiddos. We would definitely be coming back
  • We've been to the drive through safari several times and have always had a great experience. This time, we decided to try The Beast - the open-air tour-guided bus. Our guide narrated almost the entire hour of our tour, making it very interesting and informative. The openness of the bus makes the animals a little more accessible than they are when you drive through in your own vehicle and it was easy for both people in the seat to feed the animals. It's not an inexpensive experience, but it's worth it, and it's a wonderful attraction for our small community. When you drive through with your own vehicle, you have an opportunity to purchase the zoo admission at a discount with a combo-package. However, when you tour the safari on The Beast, there is no combo available to attend the zoo. This was my only disappointment. PS - the bus was full of people during the tour - the group photo shown here was only our family photo op after the tour. :)
  • Pricey, they charge for many things( 5$ to feed carrots to the giraffes) but worth it, nice habitats, animals looked well cared for. Great family day out. Ride " The beast" out on the safari, instead of driving your own car, well worth it! Guide Jeff was funny and knowledgeable .
  • My kids LOVE this place! Although it's not very big it never disappoints! My husband and I got to chaperone 2 back to back field trips with our son's Kindergarten class then again with our daughter's 3rd grade class the following day. We all had a great time!
