I used to really love coming here to camp. I've been camping here for over 40 years. However, our…read morelast 2 stays but most especially this one is ridiculous. The amount of lack of consideration for fellow campers is horrendous. There is no one on site to call to ask for reinforcements of the rules. It's currently midnight and I hear people singing across the park. Our neighbors have finally gone to bed or moved to another campsite. The speed of golf carts and those of little kids driving them is crazy. This is a great place if you want to party but if you are looking for quiet peaceful decompression DON'T come here. You'll be even more stressed out.

This wee zoo always delivers! I grew up in the area and visited this zoo dozens of times as a…read morechild, and again when I brought my nephews to the zoo for a fun day out. I have not been to this zoo in about five years until this visit. My mother and I went to the zoo to see the new panther kitten but it wasn't on display that day which was disappointing but not unexpected. This zoo is well maintained, offers the usual array of animals (otters, lions, a wide variety of birds), and specializes in the Louisiana exhibit, which I always like to see. You can get food to feed the gigantic koi in the river running through the zoo at the gift shop for some fun but be sure to recycle the cup when you are finished. Staff does a great job of keeping the zoo clean, and the caretakers will answer any questions you have about the animals. I love this zoo and know you will too. Enjoy the zoo!

This park has a small parking lot and is a park that is known for it trails and happens to have a…read moresmall playground. The playground is half decent. It has a ship themed jungle gym that has a couple of slides. It is on a rubbery mat surface that is worn and has seen better days. The park is relatively well maintained, even though there are some areas that can use a little attention. There are 3 different paved trails that can bu used for jogging or walking. One of the trails has an observation deck off of the side of it that is nice, but you can see where they removed some graffiti from the wood. The deck overlooks a marsh area. The park has benches around the playground area and along the trails and has lots of green area to play catch or run around. The lawn is very well maintained and there is decent lighting along the trails. The park is dog friendly, if they are on a leash. I like this park, but it could be a little cleaner and the playground could be a bit bigger. This is a nice park to walk/run around to clear your head and/or take in the day.

Would have been a lot better except for incompetent management that did not want to wait out passing weather. Was told we would be clear at 5:30. Went out at 5:30 only to have our carts shut off as soon as we got back out there. After seeing no lightning within 7 miles on our lighting app, was told sarcastic comments by cart boys that told us we had to go back in. Went back to clubhouse to wait out the weather, just to be told they were closing down at 6 PM. Asked for a refund since we were being forced to leave, but apparently this course has the ability to tell you you can't finish without giving a refund. Not sure if I've been to a course that will not allow you to finish a round when carts are due back in at 8:30 just because workers want to get home early, but I guess there's a first for everything.

Only con, the greens were a little fuzzy, I could tell they hadn't been mowed in a day or two.....but not that big of a deal. Great place to practice too. Range balls were actually good quality and they even have a short game practice area to hit balls from about 90yrds, in. A lot of courses don't have that, which is odd since that is the most important thing to practice minus putting. I'll definitely be back.
