Or sometimes it's nice to just sit on the giant rock and look at the beautiful waterfall. There is a very nice little playground that my grandkids had a blast playing on. As well as a couple of nice adult swings for the grownups to sit on and watch the kids. There are also places for the kids, and adults too, to get in the water. . As a bonus, the bathrooms are kept very clean and are nicer than any park bathroom I have ever been in. If you haven't been here yet, just do it!

Carolina Wren Park in downtown Anderson offers a quiet charm even on a cooler, event-free day. The…read moreamphitheater-style layout, with its tiered lawn and open stage, makes it easy to imagine live music echoing through the space on a summer evening. Without crowds, you can appreciate the thoughtful design. Wide walkways, gentle slopes, and a central fountain that adds a touch of movement and sound. It felt peaceful, almost like the park was catching its breath between performances. The cleanliness stood out. No trash in sight, and the landscaping was tidy and well-kept. It is clearly a space that the city takes pride in. That said, parking could be tricky. There are a few spots nearby, but on a busy night, you might need to plan ahead or be ready to walk a bit. Still, for a downtown venue with this kind of atmosphere, it is worth the effort. [Review 1373 of 2025 - 1329 in South Carolina - 24925 overall]

My husband, daughter, and I visited this establishment 6/14/25. Someone (seemingly the owner)…read moreapologized for the mess as they had a tree come down the night before that they were cleaning up. Lloyd, the cow, was extremely malnourished and had bones sticking out all over the place. One of the horses seemed depressed. The cavies (spelling?) were in the saddest tiny space. The cats around the property were all scrawny and terribly thin. All of the animals, regardless of type, were all fed the same pellet food that was dumped right onto the muddy ground for them to eat off of. Their water was dirty. The trash bins around the area were all full of garbage, plus there was trash all over the ground. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. Their reptiles, prairie dog, snakes, and another bird are all kept in a shed on the property. They don't allow you into the shed, but bring them out one by one to show you. The girl who brought the reptiles and other poor animals out of the shed proceeded to tell us about how Skippy, the kangaroo, and the Emu, who share the same space will fight. She detailed enough that we know that Skippy jumped on the Emu's back while attacking her. Everything screams neglect, trash, and a money scheme. I would never, ever spend my money here again. I would never, ever recommend it, either. I wholeheartedly believe that this place should be shut down and the animals taken away where they can receive better care. I would give a negative score if I could.

This place is super cute! The entrance doesn't do it justice honestly…read more Grounds are clean and well kept - I didn't see any of the issues mentioned in other reviews. We drove down from Greenville and had a great time. The owner's father was there and gave us a lot of information and was very kind.

I've driven past this park so many times on Hwy 25 that I've lost count. This spring I wanted to…read moremake it a point to check it out with my kiddos. After leaving a very small park in Greenville (view previous review) we headed to Loretta C. Wood Park. The playground area is fenced in, which is always a plus with little ones. Unfortunately, there is not much shade, so save this one for early morning hours or later in the evenings. One playground equipment area is geared towards 2 - 5 year-olds and the other is for older children (didn't catch the ages, but my guess is 6 - 12). There are a couple of benches for parents to keep an eye on their offspring. Unfortunately, one of the swings was unbolted and hanging on the ground; hopefully they can get it fixed soon. We were by ourselves for quite a while before more people came. There is also a baseball field and a walking path, which is about 0.5 miles long (need to walk this next time). Apparently, this is Greenville County's southern most park, which was dedicated to Loretta Coker Wood, who was an advocate for the youth in the same county. Restrooms are available; yay! Hours are from dawn to dusk, which obviously changes daily and from season to season, so that makes it difficult to post accurate hours on yelp. Happy yelping!

Super fun experience for an amazingly reasonable price!…read more We were able to see come cool and friendly animals, feed and pet some and be surrounded by beautiful budgies (parakeets) all for under $40! This is a great way to spend a few hours and get a lot of laughs, pics and memories. It looks like they will be expanding the drive thru safari route. We took our own vehicle and it took a licking or two lol. Bring wet wipes and hand sanitizer, you'll need it after the ride is over. Also, splurge the $3 for the budgie stick, so worth it. Unfortunately, the turtle didn't come out so we could feed it, but we fed the carrots to the other animals.
