What an amazing little zoo! Honestly can't believe they don't charge an entry fee! Make sure you leave a donation when you walk in. So well maintained, all the animals homes are lovely and clean. One of the best zoos I've been to. Favourite has to be the Phoenix (golden pheasant)

We come here every couple weeks. Love this place. We pretty much followed the peacocks around today, there were at least 6 of them. They have a very Impressive playground structure, I'll get pics of that next time.

Small and fun zoo. We happened to visit when it was pouring, but made the trek through the park anyway. The tigers were on patrol and got some great photos. Admission is free, parking is free. Has a small gift shop with knowledgeable staff who were able to direct us to some cheaper food in the area.

Parking is free and the entrance fee is by donation with a cool coin drop. A gift shop is located by the entrance with snacks and buggy rentals. The walking paths are nicely maintained with several benches throughout (many in shaded areas). There is a great playground area for younger and older children with bathrooms and picnic tables nearby. There is a nice assortment of animals to see throughout the zoo but as a smaller zoo, there is not a huge range of animals to see. Nonetheless, this is a really great relaxing place for visitors of all ages any day of the week.

Wonderful little zoo with playground. Admission is donation based. All animals looked well cared for. They close early, so plan accordingly.
