★★★★★Justin ArmendarizWe had an awesome birthday party at this location, the kids had such a good time running around, playing at the park and seeing all the animals. It wasn't too hot and everything turned out amazing. Highly recommend this birthday destination to keep everybody occupied. There was lots of tables and shade.
★★★★★MayWolf1I love this little local zoo. A good walk and the animals are close to see. Highly recommend when is good weather. There's a playground for the kids and tables to eat or sit at in shade.
★★★★★Jen WahlstromEnjoyed seeing some unique animals. Worth the $5 per person! Would have stayed longer but not a lot of shade and it started getting too warm for us.
★★★★★JesusVery nice place to take your kids or just go out with the family. The staff was friendly and helpful. We got to see many of the animals up close. 5 stars
★★★★★Rachel TempleI love this little zoo! For being so small, they have a great variety of animals, including some you can find in the wild nearby which I found amusing. The animals seem very well take care of and several were very interesting in getting close to the front of their enclosure. Ihad a great time walking around
