“Great place to take your family and friends, really fair priced and lots to do to keep your little ones busy for hours.”

Rick H

“We really enjoyed our experience here. Came to visit family from Oregon and was excited to hear about “Animal Days” happening during our stay. worth the money to take around my 18 month old to see all the many different animals. And to be able to feed many of them was neat too with the $1 bags of feed. I’ve been to many petting zoos, etc… but this one made a lasting impression on my mom and I. Wish we lived closer so we could experience the pumpkin patch!”

Shaumbra P

“Loved it. You can spend hours there just letting the kids play on all the free things. So much fun today.”

Janel M

“Such a fun experience! My boys loved the free Zipline, and the swing ride was absolutely worth the extra cost.”
