    This is a super random roadside attraction out near Zion National Park. My friend and I drove by it, looked at each other, and she announced, "I'm turning around, aren't I?" It was $2 entrance to the petting zoo/mini "town" and you could pay extra to feed the animals carrots. The animals were cute and appeared to be well-cared for, though I hope they had extra room/pastures beyond what was visible. The shop itself is charming, the folks working were pleasant, and it was a nice little pit stop in Utah.

    Great place to grab some last minute souvenirs. I did not buy food, I just went in for some souvenirs. They offer a good selection and prices vary. Depending on what you are looking for. The location was great, customer service was excellent, clean, lowkey area and good amount of items.

    This place is souvenir shop, restaurant, and they also have a petting zoo. Their petting zoo is the reason why we would normally stop here when we visit Zion National Park. It's $2 to enter their petting zoo, and a $1 for two carrots to feed the animals. You won't miss them. You'll see their little ghost town when you are driving on the highway.

    The employees were really nice but some of the areas in the petting zoo could use some care. Some of the Sheep and goats containment areas were way too small. A few did not appear in good health.

    If you are driving by YOU HAVE TO STOP! The best life cream I've ever had hands down. I will be back for more prickly pear ice cream. Nothing like I've ever had before. Plus you get to see and feed the animals.

    This was a fun little stop on our Zion trip. The souvenir store is full of quirky curios, jewelry, rocks, toys, etc. As with most souvenir stores, it is a bit pricey, but still fun to browse. They also had a sale section where I picked up a porcelain mini piggy bank for $1! The petting zoo area is fun. There are cute little buildings for the kids to run around in, and there are four or so pens of animals, including llamas, ponies, and two types of goats. It was $2 to get in the petting zoo and $1 for two carrots to feed the animals.

    Cool place, the animals look healthy, but honestly unhappy in such small spaces. Selection of gifts and everything is big.

    My husband and I were on an RV trip traveling through Utah and Zion. After leaving the National Park, we came across Fort Zion. We actually passed it and were not going stop but then decided to make a U-turn and go back to see what we could see. So glad we! The staff was amazing and the native jewelry was gorgeous. Couldn't decide on a necklace at the time, so I skipped it. When I got home, I was sorry I did. Called the store and spoke to Alicia. She was amazing! I was able to purchase the necklace with her and she shipped it to my home within a few days. Amazing store with amazing staff. Don't be like us. Stop in the first time you drive by and leave yourself enough time to take in the whole store and chat with staff. We plan to take a trip out every couple of months to see what new jewelry the store has in stock! FYI... ample parking for RV's.

    This is a really fun place to visit. Tons of souvenirs and other memorabilia on the shelves here. Plus there are the interesting 'buildings' which serve as their billboard to attract people driving by on the highway. It's a great place, no question.

    Stopped for home made ice cream
    Lynda S.

    4/3/2021 On the way home from visiting Zion National Park and stopped for home made ice cream. We ordered a few scoops of ice cream and at $2.70 for a small scoop after tax it's worth it after a hiking day! Ice cream is really creamy! They have unique flavors and make everything in house. They source fruit from Hawaii, Florida and dairy from local farms to make it. Worth a try! I had crazy coconut and Pineapple perfection! Just missing the alcohol - ha. They have prickly pear flavor that is unique and pretty good. Kiddos got hooked on that one. Service is really nice, mom/pop shop. Until next time.

    I can see in the reviews why people would say that this place looks sad, because of the animals in the pen, but I'm sure that they take care of their animals because they seem like people who enjoy what they do an be would want to do that. I didn't get the name of the woman at the counter, but she was very nice and she let my daughter have 2 free carrots to gift to the animals since she was too scared to give the one is that we had bought and had just thrown them in. There is was a huge store and a little ice cream shop, I wish that we would have had lunch before going so that we could have tried the homemade ice cream. But for the price of $2 to see the petting zoo, and 2 for $1 carrots to feed them, we hope to come back!

    had some cool stuff and a petting zoo but the animals have barely any water and no food. they let you buy carrots to feed to the animals and when i was feeding them they acted like they haven't ate in a while. there is barely any shade for them and it's extremely hot outside. those animals need help.

    We drove by today and it was closed. We called and called. No answering machine. Have they went out of business? Frustrating

    Portion sizes are huge and prices are very reasonable, especially being so close to Zion National Park.
