The petting zoo was disturbing and upsetting. The donkeys specifically water dishes were all BONE dry, not a speckle of water in sight. When the employee was asked he said it was his job specifically but someone next shift would be doing it. On a hot day, especially, I would consider this abuse as the employees here don’t seem to care for the animals or their needs that sitting on their phone seems to be top priority. A goat escaped, the teen employee didn’t even budge, don’t think he even noticed as he was on his phone and two visitors had to get the goat back inside. We have loved coming here over the years but today this was greatly disappointing. Please do something
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The guide was very informative. Our only suggestion is to have mics and speakers for the driver. It was hard to hear in the back of the wagon.
First time here and loved it
Loved the landscape, so peaceful. Very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. My family and I enjoyed the bus safari tour. We were able to feed the animals. I must say the areas where the animals were kept, were clean too. This experience made my children to appreciate nature (animals).❤
We enjoyed our safari ride. The animals were interactive and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Unfortunately we purchased tickets for both safari & petting zoo ahead of time & by the time the ride was over, the petting zoo was closed. We were not able to be refunded for that portion. I don’t suggest getting one of the later appointments if you want to buy the package that includes both.
Better than the zoo 10x
Happy, healthy animals who are obviously well loved. What a pleasant surprise!
So much fun and the animals were entertaining and adorable. Definitely need to go through the drive-thru again. My favorite animal that was the fluffy cow. He was adorable and I literally loved him! What
My grandsons and other kids on our tour bus had a blast, most under the age of 8. The laughing and squeeling was fun to hear. The following day, my 8 year old grandson thanked me again and said how much he loved it.
I haven’t done the ride thru the park in many years. I really enjoy it this afternoon. My grandson (who is six) really enjoyed it. Your bus driver “Tom” was excellent. He showed the passion needed with dealing with the public.
What a great place. Loved to see all the new babies that have been born.

This was the best little safari and petting area we've been to! All of the animals seemed well cared for, and I loved seeing all the babies everywhere! ❤️ I definitely recommend the safari ride as it lets everyone have a chance to feed the animals, takes about an hour, and you get info from the driver! I also recommend getting 2 buckets of food because I ran out after the first 3 stops! haha I would suggest that drivers use or have a little headset and a speaker so we could hear everything from the back tho! The grounds were so pretty and you all had the biggest Koi fish I've EVER seen! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The food was delish as well! 👍
Super cute n fun - DEFINITELY DO NOT BRING A NICE NEW CAR - or do the guided safari - like they say animals are animals don’t trust them lol . we bought 2 feed buckets each. Buy online and save btw When going make sure you FEED OUTSIDE THE WINDOW !! AND KEEP WINDOWS ALL THE WAY UP OR ALL THE WAY DOWN- they will try and take your window off - we have zebra teeth mark on ours , good amount of animals to see though and they will walk up and block off the car lol , parking was easy , PETTING ZOO- Small which they say is small mainly only goats should be called goat petting zoo , those cups to feed them are even smaller smaller like small fyi - and can’t really pet the other animals as they’re behind 2 gates .but they do have some other animals like pony and donkey, although looks as if they need some care tbh , matted and mangey that’s why I gave 4 stars bc as a Texan those animals need some love ❤️ but it’s good and we had a fun time as teens/ adults so I know the kids will LOVEE it just buckle them in lol , BE WARE OF THE OSTRICH HE CRAZY , SAME WITH THE ZEBRA IN FIRST GATE
Perfect Family Getaway!
This animal farm is a fantastic destination for families. It's well-maintained, clean, and offers a welcoming environment. Kids and adults alike will delight in the variety of animals, from friendly goats to playful ducks. The interactive experiences, like feeding the animals and petting sessions, create lasting memories. The knowledgeable and friendly staff make the visit even more enjoyable, providing interesting facts and ensuring everyone has a great time.
Whether it's a weekend outing or a special occasion, this animal farm is the ideal spot for family fun and learning. Highly recommended for a wholesome and educational adventure!
Excellent facility. So well run. We had a ball and we will back.
This experience was AMAZING and I cannot recommend it enough. A group of us (6 total) did the Safari Bus tour and were blown away by how much fun we had. The animals are VERY interactive and get so close, they're practically on the bus with you. Our bus driver was friendly and knowledgable, and provided great insight about both the specific animals on the farm and their species at large. We also did the small petting zoo which was incredible - the goats were a bit demanding and were not afraid to jump up on you to try and get some food, so it might be worth proceeding with a bit of caution if you have smaller children, but it was so cool to be able to pet goats, ponies, and llamas up close.
Overall, it's a great value and a truly unique experience. The first tub of feed is included with your tour, and after that refills are $2. Some members of my party didn't even need the refill - it's a sizable cup that goes a long way! For the small petting zoo, they have a few different options, but I did the small feed and small cup of carrots that were $2 a piece, and they lasted the entire time I was in the small petting zoo. If you ration well and are conscious of how much food you're giving each animal, you can make the feed last for your entire visit in each section.
