Very nice zoo. The animals seemed very well cared for and a nice variety. Easy to walk and it is absolutely awesome that there are daily talks about the animals. Nice little gift store too. Everyone we encountered was super friendly. Memberships are very affordable.

For the price and what it is - it is 5 stars. If you're looking for a big city zoo that you'd spend several hours at (and pay 4x as much) - this isn't it. It is a great small zoo with about 15 outdoor enclosures; 5 or 6 enclosures in the barn, and 8 or so exhibits in a separate building. During the busier times, there are keeper talks or events every hour for different animals. Apparently you can feed goats, llamas, etc... for $1.50. We went on a weekday in February and the desk wasn't open. Yet... there were only a few other people in the zoo - and very easy to see everything. They have pony rides as well. If you have a child under the age of 10 - I could see spending 2 hours here when it isn't winter. We spent an hour and saw everything and didn't rush.

This zoo is extremely small and great for toddlers. They don’t have many exhibits but they made up for it with the petting zoo.

We drove an hour to get here and spent an hour here. It is on the smaller side BUT you can definitely tell they take care of each and everyone of their animals! Super affordable too. For 2 of us, 3 cups of food, and a drink to go cost us 17$ only. Overall, my little one enjoyed this place and especially feeding the smaller Cow. Thank you!

Always a little great place to go! Pack a lunch and sit at the park and enjoy people watching. Very peaceful and relaxing. The employees and animal keepers are very knowledgeable although there are some animals that seem very stressed and their physical being shows it unfortunately

Took my son here, and he wasn't the only one having fun. All the animals were very well kept up, it seemed. Almost all the staff was great. One girl at the gift shop wasn't the friendliest, but overall, still five stars.

Started visiting last year and got a family membership for this season. The facility is clean, easy to access for all. Gated area for the park. And what fun to feed the animals. My little one has the best time.
Parking can be a little tight, but always find a spot.
Highly recommend and don't forget to bring some coins to feed the ducks.

They do have a donations page too with various supplies if you'd like to further support the animals.
