My grandaughter will be two in May. The zoo is her favorite place to go. She loves the Yak, petting the sheep and goats, and of course playing in the water. The ice cream and sweet potatoe fries aren't to be passed up.
Wide array of animals but not all exihibits open ...we enjoy our visits!
A small zoo with friendly and well informed staff. Snack bar and gift shop. Help conservation efforts!
I love this little zoo! It is small enough that I can take my toddler there without pushing a massive Stroller Assault Vehicle for miles and miles. There is a water feature next to the otters that my son played in while I zonked, er..rested on the multitude of benches placed around the park. The animals are interesting and what I would consider uncommon for most zoos. They seem well cared for and their habitats seem to be engaging for them so you don t look in the cage and think you poor bored bastard , while simultaneously in a jealous rage that they can sit around and do nothing all day while your toddler attempts to jump every barrier possible. The food at the small cafe was quite good as well. Would highly recommend.
This is a small but fun zoo. It's a good couple hours spent with the family.
This was a great birthday experience for my grandson! It wasn't too busy to actually enjoy the whole park. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only downside is they aren't finished adding all of the new areas yet!!
The zoo is very small and does not have a large variety of unusual animals. However the staff is very pleasant and there is a young lady who works with the barnyard animals who very obviously loves the animals, loves her job and had a lot of information about the animals. If I could remember her name I would totally give her a shout-out. She rocks.
Wonderful and Expanding Zoo. Animals are well cared for.
it's alright. nothing to rave about. great if you have kids. They've been improving it over the years, so I recommend at least checking it out once and maybe checking back every once in awhile to see if there have been any updates.
Small but awesome in its own way. Always a pleasure.
Visited on my way south from Oregon. Fantastic place to visit. Well maintained. Knowledgeable staff and lots of new and exciting improvements in progress.
Cute little zoo! Very family friendly. Even has a petting zoo!
Well kept facility. Many awesome animals all being taken care of by caring and attentive staff. Great for littles on up to 100 plus. Easy clear walking paths, a water feature, and well sized enclosures. I'm looking forward to the elevated deck they are planning for next year. So you can experience the animals from above as well as ground level.
Have been here dozens of times, it s a beautiful place to take a stroll. The animals are all very well cared for and happy ^_^
Get experience. Especially for little ones who tire out easy.
It is a small zoo but is a nice zoo. Staff are very friendly. When we were there one of the staff very nicely chatted with us while she was feeding the animals. If you're ever in Eureka I recommend checking it out.
Visited from out of town. Really nice zoo for such a small place. The red pandas are a must see.
Best Zoo I have ever visited! Especially loved the petting zoo. Up close and personal. Loved every minute!!
My 7 year old son and I love going here. It's always fun being among the other animals! The staff here is great with kids, and the food is pretty good as well.
This is a tiny but charming zoo. As should be expected in a small city like Eureka, this zoo doesn't have any of the large animals such as elephants, lions or giraffes, but it is a nice local attraction, esp for families with small kids. The food there is also quite reasonable for a zoo.
Nice small zoo. Just a little expensive though for the size.
Very cute zoo kinda small and don t get very many new exhibits but I hear are having some
Exciting additions in the future! Perfect for mamas with kids who need to get out for a pleasant afternoon of animals and interactive play
Cool little Zoo with some interesting and unique animals. The exhibit with the local otters were the most fun.
It's a small zoo...cheap and a nice place. There is a petting zoo. Beautiful bald eagle display and an amazing otter display
Nice little zoo in Eureka. Cool & different critters you don t see in most zoos.
The grove behind the zoo is s nice place to walk your dog
Smaller zoo but is growing and can't wait for it to be done but still a relaxing time and not expensive
It's a nice clean zoo, super kid oriented. no big game animals, but still fun. set in the redwoods.
This pint-sized zoo, with nearby onstreet parking, is packed with fascinating and entertaining zoological wonders. Did you know that a spider monkey has no thumbs on its hands, but has a big thumb on its tail? Or that shrews can eat their More
Animals are adorable.. But the bwat part is all the trails and sights in the forrest. Love exploring with the family here
They care about the animals and conservation. Love love love.
The animals look happy,. All but the bald eagles! Awesome barnyard area!
My daughter loved the Red Pandas and I loved the Bald Eagles. Very well kept zoo.
Had a great time with the family. We have a fifteen month old that we took there. We had an outstanding time. We first walked in had lunch. They have an outstanding menu for family's. I had the polish dog, which was delicious. My wife got chicken strips. Chick was good, just little small in my point of view. My wife thought chicken was the perfect size. We got a grilled cheese sandwich for my daughter. My wife and I both had a bite. I have to say it is the best grilled cheese sandwich I ever had. I was really surprised. Then we got desert. My wife had a normal ice cream. I got there home made cookie sandwich ice cream. The Zoo had a huge variety to choose from. I had white chip macadadium nut with vanilla ice cream. Was hard to eat at first. I strongly recommend to let cookie thaw so cookie not rock hard and ice cream just slightly melting. Oh la la, really good desert.
Then we did our rounds looking at the monkeys working our way by the fish. Really cool to see the Bold Eagles. Then we made it all the way to the barn yard petting Zoo. The. We made it back to the front. Zoo not big. But Zoo super nice to catch quick bite to eat the. Enjoy seeing some exotic animals get your kid tired so they will take a long nap.
Another added bonus. The Park next door. So if your kids still not tried you can finish them off at the park.
I recommend looking at the Zoo prices. We got the family pass. My wife routinely goes to the zoo either once a week or every other week depending on weather. She says during the week so dead really nice to walk with our daughter. Hopefully this helps someone.
Surprised at a great lunch and tasty ice cream family fun a few more animals wouldn't hurt though
It's a very pretty and calm place. Wish it was bigger though. It's a small zoo with a small budget, and it does a great job with what it has.
I was very disappointed, there weren't many animals, it just felt dry, greenery not well kept. Being a native of Humboldt, it's really gone down in appeal. I took my great grandson, to enjoy the area. We were so disappointed, no otters? Where are they.
Very small zoo. Enclosures much too small for the animals. All the animals seemed miserable. Very sad experience and disappointed with the overall size. I think that zoos need more regulations regarding the size of animal enclosures, and if cities or towns are unable to meet those requirements, then they should not have a zoo, Period!
They do well with the budget they're working with, but the animals need more space.
I had fun n its changed n I liked the yak, fish n flamingos!!!!!!!
It's a small over priced zoo but it's a nice place to take the kids on a sunny day. It would be cool to see some new exhibits but what they have is not to bad.
Great zoo check out the otters around feeding time. They are like water kitten dogs and I love them.
Zoo is small and the workers in the cafe shop were extremely rude. Overpriced as well
Easy trails, fun little landmarks scattered around. The top of the park has a good playground area, as well as the bottom by the duck pond. Worth seeing.
Needs a few more animals but the feedings are cool. Good for dates ;)
Great for all ages, we go often and never get tired of it.
Love the barn area! The red panda talk was great. Small but great zoo.
Beautiful zoo tucked away in the redwoods. Many exciting animals and education surrounding local species and habitats. Garden and park with hiking trails adjacent. Awesome petting zoo.
Cheap zoo but it was a good time. Great petting zoo for kids too
Nice little zoo with some amazing critters. Red Panda was a must see for my daughter. And being able to get so close to Eagles was a real plus.
This is a very small zoo. There aren't many supper thrilling animals, but what they do have are cute and generally easy to observe. My sons liked going there for short walks (short because it is so small). The prices are a little high in my opinion because it is difficult to spend even an entire hour here.
Fun zoo with good variety. Excellent french fries in the cafe:)
I had a great visit with the fascinating and well-cared-for animals at the zoo. Looking forward to visiting again.
Clean, well maintained enclosures, great otter display, fun petting zoo and good cafe!
This is the best little zoo! We almost always pay a visit when we're up seeing my grandpa. The best exhibit is the red pandas. If you go for feeding time, you can actually see them moving around and even come up close. The otters are fun to see but they weren't out on our last visit. There was a new installation of some bush dogs that looked like baby bears. They moved around a lot too.
Love our little zoo -- peaceful, informative, nice outing -- the children love the otters!
Minus the hobos who come out the woodwork occasionally, fun place to take the fam!
Nice little zoo in Eureka, CA. Had more exhibits than we had expected to see that we hadn't seen in our local zoos. Is you have young kids, this is a great place to visit!
Really friendly staff that cares about the animals.
It's sad to see animals in cages, but there's also the point of view that exposing people to animals will help foster learning.
The wild animals and good food. Great for birthday parties and very knowledgeable about the animals.
Really cool, amazing quality and diversity for such a small zoo. Kids absolutely loved it
The cost is WAY TO HIGH FOR HOW SMALL IT IS AND U DONT EVEN HAVE A TOUR GUIDE. I love animals and enjoy seeing them but come on the price is ridicious.
Great little zoo that is always making improvements to benefit the animals and the visitors.
