For a little zoo this was a treat to take our 2 year old grandson. The animals were friendly and hungry; they ate out of your flattened hand and liked to be scratched. Very nice assortment of animals. Plus the camel is a hoot; I won't explain it but it is worth it. Trust me! Also included is pony rides. Billy was working them this Saturday and very kid friendly. Jerry is the owner and put this stationary petting zoo together. All nice people. If you have kids it's a nice little petting zoo with more than just goats. Stop in and give it a whirl.

The Honey Run Trail is one of the gems of the Lake Of The Ozarks State Park. The trail system…read morecomprises of three distinct areas, The High Land Flats and North and South Loops for about 12.7 miles. The Flats is an out and back, about 3 miles one way. This trail has a few medium rock features and several rock garden areas. The trail is gravel and rocks, which can really rattle your teeth. I prefer to ride from the Anderson Hollow Road parking lot, as it's up hill and it's nice to take it a little easy on the way back down. The North Loop is about 4.5 miles that winds through the woods and has an occasional lake view. This trail is also gravel and some black dirt. There are a few small rock features that are fun to ride through. You will during this section. There is a fire road that can make you cry during early season. The South Loop the shortest at about 2.75 miles. It is the flattest portion of trail and runs along with Honey Run Creek. It winds through the woods with some quick hairpin turns around creek beds. There is one wide creek crossing. It is usually dry. If you picked only one trail to enjoy, this section would be my pick. There are no bathrooms or water. It is not easily handicap accessible. Word of warning: wear bug spray. The ticks are not a joke down here. I spray every time and don't usually have any issue. Enjoy and ride on!

It's evident that the owners maintain the property very well and the landscaping is beautiful. Makes for a great daytime or evening activity with family and friends. Because it's built into the natural terrain you do have elevation changes and stairs throughout so just something to be aware of for those with limited mobility. They do have benches in multiple places along the path in case your group ends up having to wait a little bit. Restrooms are on site as well as vending machines for drinks. Good value and good fun!

It reminded me of the Ewok village, as you kind of feel like the putting greens are elevated with wood holding them up. Mostly just rocks and angles to work around so you have almost total control of your score. Not as challenging, but very cool, shady, and absolutely gorgeous with neatly potted, well maintained plants everywhere. Love the miner town buildings and feel. Some leaves on the greens simply because of the number of large trees, but very well maintained. Cost $14, 7 for second round. This one has a lot of steps to get down to it, but fewer steps along the way. Putt n stuff is most traditional with windmill, plinko, tunnels, et. Almost all greens were very clean and newly laid with tee off squares. There is water, hippos, crocodiles, gorillas, windmills and hills and curves. Maybe a little older but overall most fun if you are ok with letting chance help or break your score. In 2026 it was $11 for first round , $5 for second round. Pirates Cove seems newer. It has simpler greens to navigate (less chance more skill), you have a little more control over your score, but not as unique as far as ball play. The pirates and ship are fun for pics and if you read the pirate fun facts that can be fun. It has a couple places where you can put in a quarter for fish food and feed the fish. That was actually pretty cool. It has a large waterfall as well. Cost: $13, $7 for second round, but go to a visitor brochure stand and there are coupons for $1-2 off sometimes. You really can't go wrong with any of them.

It seemed like all the cabins had a decent view. Lots of rv spots, bathroom with showers, MWR rentals at the dock had the boating rentals including jet ski. Prices were very affordable!

We went right when they opened and there were no crowds! You can either bring socks from another trampoline center or buy them for $3. There's lots of tables outside, an arcade with Jurassic Park, hurricane simulator, and claw machines, clean bathrooms. You can observe for free if you don't plan to jump on the trampolines. My kids loved the various activities like foam pits, rope swings, ninja course with pegs and swings, rock climbing, balance ladders, balls. There's also leather massage chairs(extra cost) to relax and wait on. Prices range from $9-16 depending on your age for the first hour, and you can pay extra for a 2nd hour.

Great place for the kids on a hot summer or rainy day. Lots to offer and do! Highly recommendedread more
