Took the family here for the eclipse, and we had a great time! When you visit, they have several ponds and tanks where you can feed the fish. Additionally, you can enter a building and pet gigantic sturgeon. I would fully recommend this place for a fun day trip with the kids. It's easily an hour trip, and they also serve good food.

We went here for the 2024 eclipse. They were nice enough to provide a large field for free parking. We had a beautiful view of the sky. This little generosity got us looking around, and this is a pretty cool place! They have a cool gift shop, stage and general facility. Thank you for letting us view the eclipse in your field.

The food was good. We had a great time.ORDER FOOD B4 8:30pm, they stay open till 10pm but stop serving food @ 830. They should announce that they are going to stop taking food orders, and we almost missed out. We had been there for a while. It's a good time. 👍

Stopped on the drive home from Ohio Caverns because they said you can pet a sturgeon. Pet a sturgeon! It was definitely one of the weirder places I’ve been to, but the animals were cool, it was an interesting set up, and the frozen fish selection was great.

I go at least once a week to pet the fish. Yes pet the fish. They have events throughout the summer such as wine tasting. During the fall they have the Ohio fish festival. Fun to bring kids to. One of the only places I could find to buy honey combs!

If you want live fish from here, call ahead and ask for their barn hours. They are different from their store hours and aren't posted.

Where else can you pet a sturgeon? Interesting displays of fish, nice shop and restaurant. Also has an outdoor event venue.

Always a wonderful place to hang out with the kids! Petting and feeding the fish was awesome. Sometimes we see some unusual critters. Inside is the best fish from anywhere around this area. Oh yeah, don't forget to get your dog treats there too. If you're bored and want something fun and free to do, I highly recommend Fresh Water Farms. Thanks for everything. God bless!! 💜✝️💜

Visited during the Fish & Shrimp festival with the family. Lots of great food and vendors, plenty of beverage choices for all ages.We walked the grounds, the kids were fascinated by the variety of fish we explored inside while being educated about them.Other vendors of interest as well. My grandson was impressed watching the blacksmith make flowers. We were too!Relaxed and enjoyed some good music for a time before buying some things in the front store.Overall it was a fun place to visit with family and take in an afternoon

Terrible customer service, my family and I walked in looked around for about 10 and not one person approached us to see if we needed help with anything. They was out of the fish that they said was in stock drove over an hour and half for nothing thank you

Had a nice time, although we kept getting bothered by bees. The food was very good, but there could've been a little more shrimp in the baskets. Kinda pricey but the overall experience and the live band was nice

Small but the kids had a blast. I had to drag them out after a couple hours. A change of clothes might be worthwhile for younger kids because they can get pretty wet reaching in the touch poolsPicnic tables to eat at and all you need is quarters if you want to feed the fish! Nice shop in the front with toys, yard decor, fish, seasonings, maple syrup, local honey, candy, and a decent local selection of beer and wine.

What fun!! We wanted to check this place out since it wasn't too far from home. It was great to see some unique fish and some very big ones too! We got to hold various creatures and pet large fish. Also purchased fresh fish patties that have been frozen. They have supplies for ponds as well as wine for sale in their shop. I highly recommend you bring kids here as there is the opportunity to feed the fish, which is a lot of fun too!

We went there in the 1990s and they sold us a bunch of rotten fish, never trust them.

The Annual Fish and Shrimp Festival was so nice. The food was very good. Discovered it this year from a co-worker who lives in the area.

A fun place for the whole family. See the fish being raised right on the farm. Buy a variety of fresh and frozen fish along with delicious smoked trout. The have a festival in September that features live music and activities for the kids. A very nice regional attraction that we make sure to visit at least once a year to stock up.

Came into town for a day trip and stumbled across this cool place! We got to feed the trout and see some very impressive coy fish in a pond. Definitely a nice stop on our trip!
