I found Tiger Zoofari on Facebook, and of course my youngest was sitting next to me while I was…read morescrolling. Naturally, she immediately wanted to go! I had read about the tiger feeding experience and all of the other animals you can feed and hold, and that is right up our alley. Even after reading some of the negative reviews from animal rights activists, we decided to experience it for ourselves. It's about a 3-hour drive from us, so we booked a trip for the 4th of July weekend. When we made our reservation, Bill kept recommending that we stay in one of the cabins because of our young kids. We ended up choosing the treehouse instead, and honestly I'm glad we did. We had an amazing view of fireworks going off all around us along with an incredible lightning show that night. Driving in reminded me a lot of Texas Zoofari--you don't really know what to expect until you start seeing the signs and arrive at the property. Check-in was easy. They walked us to our treehouse, made sure everything worked, and answered any questions we had. We immediately turned on the A/C, unpacked, and walked around the park for a bit. Since it was so hot, we headed back to the treehouse to let it cool down while we took a nap. Once it finally cooled off, we grilled hot dogs and made s'mores on the propane grill while watching the tigers play below us. That alone made for a really fun evening. The Mega VIP experience was definitely worth it. We got to hold and interact with so many different animals. My girls were a little disappointed they didn't get to hold a monkey or lemur, but that's only because they've had that opportunity before at Canton Safari in Texas, so their expectations were a little high. The treehouse was a fun experience for one night. If we stayed longer, though, I'd probably choose one of the cabins simply because of the bathroom setup. A few suggestions that I think would make the experience even better: * The shared bathrooms could definitely use A/C. They were extremely humid, and daily attention to emptying the trash, refilling soap, cleaning the sinks, and sweeping/mopping would make a big difference. * During the summer, it would be nice if the A/C in the treehouses was turned on before guests arrived. We checked in around 2:00 p.m., and even after asking for a fan, it took over six hours before the treehouse became comfortable. * Adding a lighter to each cabin or treehouse would be helpful so guests can use the propane fire pit. We made do by using the grill. * I do think the tigers would benefit from a little more enrichment in their enclosures like you see at many accredited zoos. Other than that, every animal we saw appeared healthy, well cared for, and happy. A huge shoutout to Bill for making my daughter's birthday extra special by surprising her with a stuffed tiger. That simple act absolutely made her day and meant so much to us. Maggie, who is interning there, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and personable. She answered all of our questions and made the experience even better. The other three ladies working there were also incredibly kind and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Don't let the negative reviews keep you from forming your own opinion. If your family enjoys hands-on animal encounters and making unique memories, I definitely recommend giving this hidden gem a chance.

The owner was a really cool guy, offered us suggestions on where to check out on the remainder of our trip. Our tour guide was Emily. She was so knowledgeable and friendly. This was definitely a unique experience. We spent about 3 hours at the park, I do wish the gift shop portion had a few more offerings. They had a baby white lion who was so cute and a young black panther who was so playful. We really enjoyed interacting with NiNi the hyena. I truly enjoyed this experience.

Such a beautiful place. I stayed here this past weekend for a yogalife teacher retreat, and boy did…read moreI have a great time!! The drive was beautiful, canyons, country, and windmills! The camp is tucked down hill in a canyon. One of the best things about this place is--- NO CELL PHONE RECEPTION! You must go up the huge hill to get any. (YES!) There is a ton of cabins, so cute, old, red and quaint! And then there is a new conference area with rooms, a kitchen, a living space, private and public bathrooms. The room I shared had three beds, two twins and a full. A ac, a bathroom with a shower, no tvs! The hall to the rooms have skylights and natural light flows in during the day. The end of the hall, is a door to outside, and faces a canyon wall. The new area is surrounded by the canyon, which is really cool!! Free wi-fi as well for those who need to stay connected to Facebook! The left of the building (when your facing it) has a cute little red gazebo tucked away, which is really nice for meditation. Like I stated earlier, there are other places to say here. I'm assuming for the kiddos who come camping, which in glad I don't stay in their, as I peeked they looked very uncomfortable. The grounds had a pool, playground, meditation labyrinth, tiny chapel, a rope wall, and a short hiking trail to a cross overlooking the camp. I saw deer, and a ton of wild turkeys! So very very nice. Another nice thing is it is 20 mins away from the town of Hinton and the Grand Canyon state park! So after the retreat I took a short detour and explored those areas. VERY VERY NICE, I would highly recommend for those planning a event, (wedding! Retreat! Family reunion!) very relaxing.
