Great park! Free zoo that has just enough animals to satisfy an hour or two worth of walking around. The butterfly tent exhibit is my favorite. Wallabys, emus, eagles, chickens, goats, river otters, and more! The educational presentations are nice too. I also appreciate how clean everything is! It's beautifully landscaped, with no trash in sight anywhere. Playground equipment is meticulously maintained and looks new. The train ride is a great deal at only $2 per person. My only complaints are the children's rides are sketchy looking and completely metal, so they're super hot in the summer sun... Ouch. Also, the shelter houses are looking a little rough. Maybe invest in some (rubber?) coated, steel frame picnic tables of some sort? Otherwise, the park is one of our favorite, weekly spots!
