Hands down... one of the best zoos! Staff are extremely friendly, and facilities are clean and accessible. Very reasonable entrance fee and parking.. $8 all day to park!

The foliage in the park is incredible...it felt more like a nature hike at times.

The animals have wonderful habitats-spacious and well maintained. I have read complaints and yes...a lot of habitats were closed and under construction. That s how they keep them nice! Personally, I m happier with a zoo that puts money into habitats than I am upset at having to forgo a visit with, say a rhino. We just walked to the next habitat and got over it.

We loved the primate forest and spent a lot of time with the elephants. My kids loved the harbor seals... and I think the seals loves the attention back.

One thing I LOVED, was the conscientious approach of the zoo. The onsite restaurants (although we did not eat there) serve sustainable foods. They do walk the walk!
We don t live close by, but will visit whenever we are in Oregon.
