I think the adults had just as much or even more fun than the kids. Courtney, the owner was a sweetheart. She was personable,, detailed, and you can tell she love what she did. The Safari starts off with the deers and it moves up to llamas and moves up to some of the bigger animals. It was such a great experience. Lots of screams and laughter. There are enough animals for the young ones to enjoy and feed. We are definitely going back. It is a great activity for family and friends with a wide age range that would enjoy it! I am located in Plano so it is a drive but it would be a great event to do for the day and find some cute little restaurants out there to end the day.

Definitely a hit with the kiddo! We took our 6yo daughter on a Sunday afternoon and she loved it. We saw alligators, capybaras, all sorts of weird fowl, goats, monkeys, a pig, an emu, some zebras (they were far off in an area that wasn't accessible), bears, baboons, roosters, a donkey, a miniature pony, peacocks, and tortoises. Probably the coolest thing outside the baby animal room was the alligator feeding. One of the handlers came out with a bucket of raw chicken and some gator knowledge, and we stood just feet away as these massive gators hissed and jumped and came up out of the water to eat. It was so awesome! In addition to the animals, there was also a small playground with ropes to swing on and climb. On our way out we stopped in the baby animal area and got to hold ferrets, a bearded dragon, two snakes, a baby coati, and a baby alligator. There was also a sweet baby muntjac deer you could pet (but not hold). We took a lot of really fun pictures. It was a great way to end the visit. The only drawback is that the grounds don't seem well-maintained and need mowing and other work. The barns were really dirty and covered in cobwebs. There were giant tortoise turds on the walkway. One of the feeding tubes for the bears was broken. You can tell the place is in need of some repairs. I'm sure it's because all their profits go to the animals and not the facilities. It didn't prevent us from having a great time and we would definitely visit again!

We choose a specific slot time thinking that it would be myself and my husband with a monkey. Instead we were in a group, which is fine / I understand they made it work because they were understaffed. However, he brought a lemur and a baby monkey in. The baby monkey was extremely cute but we were not allowed to hold it. I was pretty upset inside and I did mention it and he said if I could hang around longer then he could possibly make it work, but it was 1PM and I didn't eat yet.. so we left. I just wish it was a different experience. Still thankful I got to touch the monkey.. & all the staff was extremely kind.

My main issue with this place is how overly crowded it is and the oblivious parents who bring their secretly bad kids to play but don't watch them! Lots of the 5-8 year olds are mean to the toddlers and none of the parents correct their kids behavior. If they had a set up where certain ages could come during certain times I would be all for it. It would also help if they only allowed up to a certain number of kids at a time. They should consider doing a time slot like Playstreet has. Other than that, if it's not crowded it's worth $5. $10 is a little to much for me to watch my 2 year old get carts, toys and play food snatched from his hands and pushed around.

Parking was a little different since we parked across the street, but it was free, which was a nice surprise. The restrooms were clean, there were snacks and drinks available, and since we weren't sure what to expect, we ate beforehand. The real magic was watching all four of my kids, ages 4 to 12, find something they genuinely loved. That doesn't happen everywhere! From arts and crafts to climbing, sliding, exploring, and creating, there was something for every personality and energy level. No one was bored. Not even for a minute. As a mom, I appreciated the clean environment, family friendly atmosphere, and free Wi-Fi. As a M.O.M.=maker of memories maker, I loved seeing my kids laugh, play, and discover new things together.
