Just a heads up, you are eating out of cardboard, takeout boxes, which doesn't bother me because the food was so good... But I think it's worth mentioning.

We were there about three days after they opened, so the whole experience was still pretty brand new.

The tour itself was 2 hours, the tour guides on my date August 31, 2025: last tour of the day 2pm, were informative, interactive, and made me feel like I was in Christmas heaven. The tour in my opinion is geared toward for kids 6 and up, and everyone else after that. All of our tour guides, hilighted there areas well. If you ever find you have to reschedule your tour, the staff are more then eager to help with that. Check in through the black doors, at gift shop ; be sure to browse and take home a piece of christmas or other souvenir. Everything about the tour epic, loved it all from Santa squeeze, to Grand Ball room to room with all the toys, restoration room, the slide from Christmas Story, Lord & Taylor clock at the start of the tour, all the Christmas windows. Look forward to returning and seeing all the new additions in future. Cheers to 10 years !!

This review is for Reagan Park's 11 miles of mountain bike trails…read more This park has a combined total of five trails. See the website to see all the trails marked on a map. All of the trails are challenging! I would say front a suspension mountain bike is a must, and having a rear suspension would make these trails a little easier. I have seen people riding these trails with no suspension. Roughnecks! The first trail, Huffman Trail, is a low to medium difficulty trail. Though, it is much harder than most the other mountain bike trails in northeast Ohio, based on the little bit of biking I've done in the last few years in the Cleveland Metroparks. To me, the climb is probably the toughest part. This trail will challenge you both physically and technically. It starts off flat, but then there is a long climb that will get your heart going. Most of the technical stuff is on the way down. There are several rock gardens and sharp drops that will test your balance. The second trail, is the Fawn Ridge trail, which connects to the Annex trail, which connects to the River Trail, but for my reviews purposes, I'm treating them as one trail because, well, it feels like one trail when you ride it. Fawn Ridge and Annex are not that long or difficult and there is one section where you actually have to ride along the road to get to the next section. Basically, this is the trail you ride to get to the difficult River Trail section. The River Trail section is really challenging. There is a very steep, downhill rock garden with small logs that cross the path. It's very bumpy and hard to ride without losing your balance, while maintaining the right speed. It's tough to brake because your rear tire is bouncing off the logs and rocks, if you have no rear suspension like me. You don't want to give too much front brake because you don't want to fly over the handlebars. Out of approximately five attempts at this obstacle, I've only made it past it once without falling and that was during my first attempt! This trail circles back to the Annex Trail, where you will cross the street to the Reagan Park Trail. The Reagan Park Trail is a large, difficult trail with some interesting obstacles. Lots of climbs and narrow single track. But there is a nice section that is a gradual decline through a pine forest. Very cool! There is a section where you have to cross a creek, and yet another section that has a 10 foot drop that is extremely steep and makes a 90 degree right turn at the bottom. I usually just drag my rear wheel down this part and steer through the sharp turn. When you ride all three trails, it will get you in shape quickly. You will need lots of water, preferably a Camel Back to keep you hydrated. There is also an RC car track, which is cool to stop and watch people using while you catch your breath.

I enjoy walking in the park, taking pictures of nature. There's a pavilion with picnic tables, there's a tiny little playground for the little ones. There's also a little creek/river with a bridge that connects into a housing neighborhood area. The park is right next to train tracks, so to get to the walking area and the main part of the park you would have to go across the train tracks. A nice quiet place to go to enjoy nature (depending on time of day), if you're quiet enough you might spot some deer and any other wild animal. The other day I saw some pretty spring flowers!

We had expected to maybe pet a few alpacas, and feed some goats, but we got to go into the pens with alpacas, goats, mini pigs, mini horses and donkeys, KANGAROOS, and a wallaby. There's a free ranging tortoise, and a rather cranky camel as well. All of the animals are super social, and came right up to us for pets, even if we didn't have any food. There are add-on private encounters, but my friend wasn't interested in those, so we just did the tour, and got plenty of dopamine from that!

This is a hobby-esque farm in a smaller town in Ohio. I know one of the biggest complaints about…read morehobby/pay-for-viewing farms is that they aren't enriching for the animals. I do not know enough about animal welfare (and what they need, when enclosed) to note anything about animal welfare, so I won't. I will say that there were a ton of attendants around, and the animals seemed active and with full coats of healthy-looking fur and feathers though. NOTES: -It's definitely outside. Most of the places you'll hang out are somewhat covered for shade/rain purposes. -It's much, much more casual than most zoos I've been in. While you can't necessarily go riding a camel, if the camel comes up to you (and doesn't eat your hat), they're very touchable. -Because this farm is so casual, it's really not a good fit for kids who don't listen. They are animals, and they can peck back if your kid is doing something that annoys them. -Most pathways are mud/gravel. Plan footwear or any accessibility access accordingly. -Most employees we encountered were definitely still in high school. -No big "backstory on the animal" signage anywhere. If you're pulling in kids, you might want to open up articles to answer any questions. OTTER ENCOUNTER: We came for the otter encounter, and I would pay for it again in a heartbeat. It was a private experience, just for the ticket attendees. We sat on the ground (on cushions), and the otters were allowed to run around us. The otters seemed pretty happy about it. They, essentially, treated us like fun new playground furniture, and they crawled pretty much anywhere they wanted. Our guide, Samyra, was absolutely amazing. She was very knowledgeable about the otters, and it's clear she loved them. They were pop around her legs and jump into her lap and squeak, and as soon as she moved, they'd follow her around. She was super friendly and definitely the most engaged/friendly employee we met that day. I wouldn't wear low-cut tops or anything that an otter can "flop" into and accidentally expose parts of you. The otters, again, treat you like playground furniture, and if they can burrow into it, they will. They were trying to get into the waistbands of jeans, and crawled onto the shoulders and down the backsides of shirts and dresses. They like playing with hair. The instructions state to tie up hair, but I don't think they would have gotten tangled in it. They just seem to like nibbling. They do have little claws, and they do bite. They don't seem like malicious or violent bites. I'd liken it to a cat love bite. I think they just like biting things. The bites are definitely a surprise ouch, but they don't break skin, and you don't really notice them after they happen. They will give little bites, though, even while seemingly happy. For example, one crawled into a pant leg, and I tried to raise the leg to see him, and he gave a little bite because he wanted to be left in the darkness. Another time, one just launched himself across the room into my lap, nipped a finger, then hopped out and kept running. Just something to note if you have little kids around. You sit on your cushions, and the otters run free around you. You can pet them as they run by, but you're not allowed to force them to stay or hold them. They will just plop into your laps, though, throughout the experience. If you've ever played with ferrets, they act like rambunctious water ferrets. They might be able to add a chair if sitting on the ground is difficult, but the otters may not interact with you as much. You stay seated on your cushions throughout the half-hour experience, and the employee gives you little otter toys and treats to attract them to you. I gotta be honest: our otters ignored all of the treats and toys and just wanted to climb around us instead. You really have to plan ahead for any of their close-up animal encounters. I'd probably guess this is their bread-and-butter for funding the place. Appointments book up like 4 months in advance, and there is no rescheduling. (There is a partial credit refund, but you'll need to stalk out another 4-month-out-date.) A lot of the animal enclosures are very cement-heavy. They aren't much to look at, and I do have some concerns there, even with no knowledge of keeping animals.

I'd definitely recommend staying on the right side if you're not trying to race aggressively, people will fly past you. Also, use your brakes when cutting corners to keep control. Overall, it's a really fun and well-run experience, perfect for groups or anyone looking for a bit of adrenaline without it being too intense.
