More than a camping and hunting store... it's a wildlife museum and retail amusement park! I speak on behalf of those folks who don't like to camp or hunt in any way: Do make a point to visit once in a while.

Good: The whole place a full of eye candy. The center attraction is the aquarium that visitors can observe the underwater world from above and below. Taxidermy is on display everywhere. It's a great place for kids as they are always scheduling activities from indoor fishing to visiting a Santa wonderland during the holidays. In addition, the selection of housewares, gifts, and home goods is great... fun to browse. There is also a gift area comparable to what you might see at a zoo with items from souvenir shirts to toys.

Good: I have experienced great customer service in the store. The staff is very knowledgable about the merchandise.

This particular store is unique because it was built within a portion of an old shopping mall that was gutted and remodeled. Becoming it's own virtual stand-alone structure, this Bass Pro takes up a two level space that previous housed small shops, an arcade, miniature gold, a movie theater, and a mini-amusement park. For these reasons, this Bass Pro is designed like no other.

This is a fun place to visit whenever in the area.
