Nice place. Center has informative display area on various animals for kids. Outside cage areas offer feeding times with explanations for interested families. Trails cover traditional canoe portages.

This place is so much fun. But it's not the amazing technology that has kept this family-run business open for many years, it's the impeccable service. They will meet or beat any price. - Tim Cummings
