Came to this park for a family gathering and we never could've imagined the sheer enormity of this…read morepark. We weren't exactly sure where we were to meet in the park, not being from the area so we naively thought we'd park and walk to avoid the traffic and the admission. Upon walking in we realized quickly how difficult that would be. This park is massive at almost 800 acres and has sooo much. It includes (but probably isn't limited to) - a baseball field, dog park, grills for picnics and bbqing, streams, historic houses, nature, biking, playgrounds and more. There are even hiking trails and paddle boats, though I didn't see them. The price to enter the park is $3 and $5 for out of state but because we were attending a memorial the lady was nice only charged us the $3. You could easily spend all day here on a nice day. The one thing about this park that was a problem is getting in. The front entrance line backs up quickly and it spills out into the street. The street is like 4 lanes with steady traffic, so if you're coming from the other direction making a left over the 2 lanes it gets a bit crazy. I'd think a traffic person or park personnel would help guide the traffic a bit. A better question is why isn't the back gate open? That might lessen the traffic. Beyond that though, it's nice big park with just about everything it seems, and for an OK deal.

Beautiful Park With So Many Different Trails and Paths, Many are Drivable or Walkable (The Park is…read moreMassive!) Countless Ponds, Lakes, and Bodies of Water that are Serene! Several Older Buildings Inside the Park that Seem Historic to the Area that are Neat to See. The Whole Park is Very Scenic and Mostly Looks Like a Calendar Picture! The Area Around the Park Is Not the Best With Regards to Safety/Crime So Be Careful Leaving Your Vehicle Or Staying There After Dark.

This is a little hidden gem, that I didn't even know existed!…read more We ended up seeing fennec foxes, emus, wolves, different birds species, turtles and tortoises species, as well as bison, horses, goats, wallaby's and a few more exotic ones that I am missing. They also had your normal household animals, like skunks, raccoons and other animals that were rehabilitated that no longer can be released into the wild This is a nonprofit organization, so all of the donations and proceeds, go to helping the animals We ended up purchasing a Groupon for two people. We did not have an encounter for this one, but noticed that you could purchase that. We ended up buying cones field with feed for the animals, such as the donkey, goats and the horses, and they have a nice feeding area, so you can pet and feed them as well. The education Center was unfortunately closed, and the gift shop is tiny, but there's more than enough to do at this little zoo It only took us about an hour and a half to get through all of the exhibits

We went on a slightly drizzly Sunday after brunch and it seemed like we had the zoo to ourselves…read morebecause the parking lot was empty except for one other car. When we asked if there were any other visitors we were told no one else in the past hour. Admission is a fair price for this small zoo that had plenty of animals to keep us interested for a couple of hours. It was nice to see the bobcats active and the monkey swinging around. Lots of peahens and the peacock was fun to see perched in different places. We were amazed to get a symphony of howling, yapping, barking, neighing, and other animal chatter while we were there. The staff in the Education Center was friendly, alert and readily answered our questions about the animals. If you like feeding the animals, buy a cone of food at the admissions booth to feed the hoofed animals. Careful when feeding the goats. I was taking a picture of my daughter feeding a goat and I was within reaching distance of the goat who craned its neck over the fence and swiftly chomped on the cone of food. I was startled but it was quite hilarious.
