There was a wide array of animals to see such as Scottish Highland cows, Kangaroos, Fallow Deer, Alpacas & our personal favorite was the Ring Tailed Lemurs & of course plenty of Alligators. Although we must've missed it but they have Gator feeding times daily & if you're into Ziplining that's available as well. The staff is friendly & helpful as well as a fair admission price of $15. Nice place to spend a few hours with or without children.

I brought my 89-year-old patient here to push around in a wheelchair to see all the animals…read morethinking that she would have the best time . We were charged $35 for myself and her and one cup of food . When we went outside we realized we could only go around the Gators because it was wood but to see the rest of the animals you have to go through the rocks . I could not push her through those rocks we got so far and it was so tough we had to turn around and go back . So it is not wheelchair friendly and we did not get to see all of the animals and when I reported to the staff that the place was not wheelchair friendly they said oh sorry about that have a good day . We thought they should have at least offered a refund on our admission but oh well lesson learned we won't go back and it's not wheelchair friendly for those who are handicapped

We have had birthday parties, church outings and activities and many family days here. It is SOOOO VERY SAD to see it in the condition that it is currently! The location is wonderful, the terracing of the landscape and the opportunities are all there!!! Why can't someone (the current owners or a new buyer) see the potential and take hold of the possibilities and give the Longview area a wonderful place for family fun again?!? I took photos of broken benches and torn and gaping holes in the putting greens, but yelp site could not accept the files. Suffice it to say Longview needs a place for family atmosphere Putt Putt Golf and Games . . . THIS IS NOT THAT PLACE ! ! !

The Owners are ALL IN to make this a great fun day to Zipline…read more the runs are mostly long with the last one being 1500 feet long‼ they give a good ground school, but not over doing it, just a great safe teaching with a simulation area. there is hiking on the 80 acres if you want to walk off some of your lunch and a beautiful lake. they serve fresh cookies on the porch of the home base (house) that was built in 1910 and is so pretty. this was the BEST Ziplines we have ever done and the family friendly atmosphere makes it even better

There were picnic tables and a large gazebo to eat lunch at and we walked around on some trails that went through the trees and close to a pond. It was a nice break off the train. We did eat lunch on the train because it was a little too warm for us and our 3 year old. There was a souvenir shop and some old railroad stuff to look at inside the depot.

We ordered the pizza and drinks package and they brought everything out not long after we arrived. As for the actual skate rink, it's a pretty decent size there's only one way to enter and exit though. So you can imagine with our tables being right by that entry it was chaotic. Kids kept zooming on the walkway and almost hitting the little kids that couldnt skate yet. A ton of kids were cursing and swearing too. There was a referee enforcing the rules; however, when some of the kids fell because they were all holding hands he gloated and told them I TOLD YOU THAT WOULD HAPPEN. Not something I appreciated from someone who's supposed to be protecting the children. Anyway, as soon as the time slot we paid for was over the staff rushed everyone out of the building. I understand that part, there was another time slot after us so no problem there. Just be prepared to leave on time when you attend their skate sessions!
