Dunham Farm is a great little secret in the area. I have gone several times with my grandchildren…read moreand enjoyed the personal experience Todd gives to visitors. We primarily went there to see the Capybaras but were amazed to find and enjoy a variety of different animals. Dunham Farms has Emus, Pygmy Goats, Red Pheasants, 2 different types of Tortoises and more. It's a wonderful place to visit with family and friends. It requires an appointment so Todd can devote individual time to you. Lots of fun and memories to share.

Went in because I was looking to start my own tank. No one came and said a word to us for over 10…read moremins. Walked right past us multiple times and didn't say a word. They only acknowledged their regulars. By the time the lady FINALLY asked us what we needed, she couldn't even answer our questions because she kept stopping to talk to her regulars. Really made us feel unwelcome and like we were interrupting her social time. Additionally, we pointed out one tank where one of the fish was being incessantly bullied and another tank with a dead fish, and all she goes is "hmm yep looks like it" and then walks back to the front and continues talking to her regulars. Absolutely no help and her lack of concern for the fish conditions makes me wary about purchasing anything from there. Ended up going to another store that had incredible service and I now have a wonderful set up. Would NOT recommend this place and certainly wouldn't ever spend a dime here out of principle.

When you pull up it's literally just a house with a sign outside with the name on it. When you walk in the place you are hit with an instant animal stench. Not complaining...I mean I get it. To the left was a small souvenir store and the right was an room with a cash register and a table. This room lead into a kitchen where food is prepared for the animals/reptiles. There is also a bird in a cage that lives in there. He is loud and loves attention. Down the hall there is a gender neutral restroom and then the room that holds all the animals/reptiles. The room was small and had many habitats inside. I must say the selection of things to see was awesome! And the presentation of feeding the dragons, lizards, snakes and everything else was totally cool. My three year old loved it!! She was able to help feed and pet many of the reptiles. Just a tip...bring a bug catcher and you could walk away with a walking stick bug! We were bummed when we couldn't take one home. Happy Yelping!

If your looking for time to be out and enjoy the day Traders Village is family friendly place to do just that. You can shop, eat, and ride rides! What's more to want!? The shops range from old to new items for Sale. The restrooms are clean and have enough stalls for a decent crowd. The food is hit and miss, I loved my mango raspa but my mexican nachos were not great. Basic fair food is available at a lower cost than most fairs. The rides seems stable and were functional but I didn't get a chance to try them out. The wind started to pick up and it was time to go. When we arrived there was a good amount of people but by the time we left it was packed. I see this being a great an afternoon 1-3 hour

We went for my birthday and had such a great time. They've only been open for less than a year (if…read moreI'm remembering right), and since it's on private property, it doesn't really feel like a zoo at all. You're literally stepping onto a their land and it's immediately clear how loved and well cared for all the animals are. The family who owns it shared stories about each animal--how they were rescued, where they came from, and their personalities. Everything was really clean and well kept, and you can tell a lot of thought went into how the animals live there. Comfort of the animals seem to be top priority. While we were there, staff were in the kitchen cutting up fresh fruit for them. They were able to share education related to each animal and what each requires. They also have a waitlist for abandoned/unwanted animals because so many people trust them for rescuing exotic animals. You can tell they built their whole life around the animals. It's such a unique place, and I can't wait to go back.
