This is the 2nd time we have been. I am so glad we went back!! They have a sloth encounter I absolutely love. We have the best time. Speaking from a parents perspective buy more feed than you think! I usually get 2 bags per kid and one for me to divide out at the end. Kids love throwing the feed to the animals! The petting zoo and walk through part is great too. Save some food for that too!

This is a really lovely place. The people are friendly and answer questions in a kind and fun way. The drive through safari was great. Tons of animals on a beautiful piece of land. They had room to roam and still came up to the vehicle. We chose a good time to go because there were baby animals of all kinds. The petting zoo was also pretty great, most especially the budgie enclosure. We spent a good while in there enjoying the variety of colors. Absolutely gorgeous birds. The grounds are clean and well kept, the animals healthy and happy. We drove two hours to do this, and it was so very well worth it.-a married couple on a date

Busy B was great! Great place to take the kids out even a couples little event like we did. Ostrich and zebras are a little aggressive 🤣 but it was so fun!

We had a super fun time here for my son’s sixth birthday! The owners are very friendly as well as the animals. The animals immediately came up to our cars and some of them did not want to leave šŸ˜† I purchased some beach buckets & shovels from Walmart before we went since the paper bags tear easily. They both came in Handy. We also packed a lunch in a cooler. It was perfect for when the children got hot and a little fatigue after a while. There were a few other things I didn’t post pictures of, but it is well worth the drive and admission. It was a very fun experience. Highly recommend taking your children! Lastly, you car will get dirty inside and out so I don’t recommend washing and vacuuming it until after. There is a wagon option where they drive you through; it’s $50 and you will need to reserve to ensure the driver will be available.

This place is absolutely amazing and the owners are the best. I have taken my son out there & we've always had a great time & we love having a picnic at their covered tables after we drive through the safari. But yesterday we went there for a field trip for my son's class. They could not have been more friendly, accommodating & helpful. The kids are so excited that they got to see & pet so many animals including a KANGAROO! This is a wonderful place to visit with your family & for field trips & birthday parties too! I will come back & add some great pictures that I got yesterday.

What an amazing place. We only did the petting zoo but they also have a drive-through safari. Lots of beautiful animals. My favorite was the baby mountain goats 🐐 and the wallabies. Let me add we were there on a field trip and the animals were great with all the kids.

Such an amazing place to visit! Bring your kids and have the best day! Loved seeing and feeding all the animals, so many animals here that are unique! Not to mention--the grounds are in great condition, animals look well cared for, enclosures are clean. Absolutely amazing experience!

Such a great Safari. The animals are not too aggressive, but still come up to the car. Their animal pet/viewing area is great too! So many different animals to be able to get close to. Their new bird walk-a-bout is growing and the birds are learning quickly to eat the food from the sticks. I definitely recommend the Sloth Encounter. It was so cool to see her just slothing around.

This place is heavenly for their animals and it shows in all their personalities! We go frequently and love the clean and open space provided to explore! The people are so friendly and you won’t be disappointed! A huge difference in this place and the other one down the road. 10/10 recommend coming to this one and not that other one! Perfect for littles!!

Neat animals to check out. I think the price was a little steep for a short trip around the property. Staff was friendly. It's neat that the animals are friendly and come right up to the cars for food.

What a great place to take the kids! Animals are not aggressive and are well fed! Took about an hour to drive through the park. There is also a small petting zoo that had goats, a pig, and an alpaca! You can also take a stroll by the camel, turkey, Tortoise, wallaby, and Ibex!

Great place. Animals well taken care of and friendly. Of course it's hot so some of the animals stayed in the shade but still got to feed and pet alot of the animals. The petting zoo was amazing. Inside the gift shop was a few baby animals. Amazing animals and amazing staff.

By far, the best drive thru zoo I've ever been too. The animals are well taken care of and engage so gently! The land is cleared and gorgeous views!

I just took my 4yr old daughter today. Such an awesome place!!! We didn't do the drive through but we did walk around and feed/look at all the animals. We spent probably 2 hours walking around because my daughter was so giddy to see all the animals and feed them from her hand. We had a blast!!! Thank y'all for a great experience!

I loved this place because of not only the animals that I got to see there, but also because of how simply perfect it was as a wedding spot.My sister's wedding was held here and I couldn't possibly see any other place for it to have been held. The person running the place even came out to help everyone else out with the preparations too, so thanks for that!

Wish I could give this place more then five stars. Its amazing being able to be so close to animals and feed them. The petting zoo is great also. Fantastic place to bring your family. The owners are amazing as well. We had an issue with our vehicle after coming into the park and they went above and beyond to help us out. Even towing our vehicle back for us. They also gave us a place to sit in some AC while we waited for our mechanic to get here. Absolutely love this place.

We had such a great time! The walk through petting portion was definitely a favorite for my little ones. We did it before doing the drive and then again after and I didn't think my littlest one was going to leave the pig. We had to keep going back to feed him and all he's said since leaving is that he wants a pig like that at home! The property is beautiful and the animals are friendly and well taken care of. The camel and the emus are quite entertaining! And, we got to meet Maverick who is so sweet and cute!! Will definitely be making another trip out soon!
