Thanksgiving Point Reviews

Great place for all kinds of family activities year round.

Absolutely amazing place for kids. A must visit whether you live here or are just passing through. The photo is of the butterfly exhibit.

Great Service in the VIP area. Beautiful experience.

So fun! ...as long as you have one kid or one adult per age range of children. Spectacular, educational, unique and high quality things to see, do and learn, and the nicest staff in the world. Absolutely love it- just need to go by myself sometime so I can do what I want to do instead of chasing down kids haha

We got a family pass and have enjoyed all of the places you can visit in thanksgiving point.

Love this place. Lots of things to do, and places to eat in the area. My only complaint is that they need more and bigger signs telling you where to go, and where things are.

Tulip update as April 21th 2018
The front entrance of the tulip festival espectacular and is free ! After you pay $20 bucks p/person a short walk after the lobby the tulips are perfect timing for pictures just look my picture here in the review
After that some beds of tulips need more time to bloom others are almost there my guess give another 1 week for full glory of tulips-
Expect crowds of people with lots of kids n yelling parents, weekends will be the worst time to go
Watch out for golf carts going fast around, good luck !!

I love thanksgiving point and my kids love it too. It is pricey but so worth it. The year pass is really worth it if you are planning to go more that 3 times a year and it gives you entrance to 4 different places which is a nice variety. The farm has wagon and ponny rides which my kids can do over and over for hours.

Only bad thing is the mac and cheese. Everything else is flawless!

We went to the Farm. It's a great place to take kids. My kids loved seeing the animals and feeding them.

Lots of activities but kind of expensive and I didn't like that they won't serve won't at the restaurant.

One of my favorite places. I lived in Utah for almost 15 years before moving and even after moving we still visit. they have many options of amazing places to go. the gardens are beautiful, there are many fun places for people of all ages, and it has amazing staff. I am always exited to go there and I hope to return soon.

Over-priced for casual visits, but if you're going to go once in your life it's worth the money! So much to do and experience! The membership is way worth it if you will go more than a few times a year. Kids 4-12 are probably the most worthwhile to take for the curiosity museum, ages 7+ for the dinosaur museum.

Thanksgiving Point is amazing! There is some thing there for everyone.

Corn Belly's is the spot during the fall. Love that huge turkey leg!

Great place to take the kids or a date. Their many special events are spectacular.

Beautiful place, great awesome activities and events for the whole family

The gardens are my favorite venue. The price is why I didn t rate it higher.

Visited the dinosaur museum with my grandson and had fun!! Maybe a little expensive but very interesting!

Good family outing. Membership will save you in the longer run. The dinosaur exhibits are amazing

I really enjoy all the venue's at Thanksgiving point. The staff is very courteous and helpful. You can tell they put allot of time and effort into making their gardens, museums, exhibits and overall experience enjoyable for their guests. This is definitely one of the best places to visit in Utah County. I highly recommend Thanksgiving point.

Hot yoga was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Many things to see and do here, Gardens petting zoo good activity center for children and of course the world famous dinosaur museum. The theater complex immediately South in the complex is wonderful.

Love Brick Canvas! Peaceful and beautiful atmosphere. Great instructors. Happy people. Positive friendly vibe. I could stay all day.

Very overpriced, every venue. I visited Farm Country, Dinosaur Museum AND Tulip Festival. Museum was most disappointing. Tulips we're beautiful but still expensive and no coupons available.

So much stuff to do at the point.... buy a pass if you can, it will be worth it.

Just this year we bought a pass to Thanksgiving point and it is completely worth it! It s awesome to know that on any given night we can just come here and hang out for an hour or two with our little one and have a great time.

Gorgeous gardens but it has lost some of its charm. Way too crowded and commercialized. We used to love it.

I had a wonderful time there recently, with a friend of mine, exploring the rose gardens, the life size "Life of Christ" statues gardens, the Butterfly Arboritum and watching her granddaughter ride the ponies (for free), as we were running around the whole place in a golf cart. Very enjoyable.
Previously, I've been to an exquisitely beautiful family wedding reception here, the Dinosaurs Museum, Christmas Lights display and got to experience glass blowing with 3 for price of one glass blowing projects at the Art Barn, there a few years ago.
I still remember when they first opened up in the 70's when I was barely married. There's always something new going there and done in good taste and in first class style!

Yummy food and ice cream sundaes! Fun treat for families

This is the best family place around. My kids never want to leave (3 and 4) any older cousins were being love it. Everything bug is so well done it is hard not to like something about it. I fully recommend Thanksgiving pinot. It also has many high end venues and events.

We love going to Thanksgiving Point.

Here are some of our favorite things to do there:
1. Tulip Festival -- Go in the springtime because it's when the gardens are the best (IMHO).
2. Rent a golf cart if you do the gardens. It's fun with the kids and they'll think you're the coolest parent in the entire world.
3. Butterfly Biosphere. You aren't SUPPOSED to touch the butterflied but rule only works to your benefit if one actually finds a perch on you. They're huge.
4. Labor day Luau. It's like the Polynesian Cultural Center Luau and night show wrapped into one. So great.
5. Eat ice cream at the Tower Deli.

Beautiful! Confusing to figure out where to go and park.

Thanksgiving Point lots of things to do we're all people plants animals you name it trinkets gifts food good place to go. For the day

We went to cornbelly's and absolutely loved it. So many activities to do. Absolutely fabulous. The kids had a great time and we didn't even get to half of the activities. There are lots of fun games you can do without paying and some really fun activities to do with paying a few extra dollars. Great shows as well which we didn't even plan on.

Thanksgiving point is awesome! They have a dinosaur museum that is amazing. They have farm animals you can walk around and see. There's an Imax theatre, at Christmas time they have an amazing light show you can walk around and see. In the summer they have a tulip garden you can walk around. They have had a butterfly exhibit, along with many others.
It's a great place to spend some family time. There is so much to do!
The only down side is it can be a bit pricey

This was a great place for a treat after visiting the museum, but the price increase and reduction in offerings makes it no longer worth the visit.

The Museum of Ancient Life is one of the few places where you can stand at the feet of a brontosaurus, see how fossils are extracted and preserved, and measure the fangs of a smilodon. It's an amazing place with a fantastic staff. Great for kids of all ages.

Really crowded and littered with children. The farm was the best part, but overall too expensive. We paid for all 4 attractions and only went to three. If you have wild kids that need to let out some energy, the museum would be worth it.

Went to the animal petting farm. My grandchild loved it. Very helpful staff and the animals delivered.

This place has lots of great attractions for the whole family.

The membership is the way to go! Something for everyone! Gardens is one of the best things around! My kids love the farm and museums!

The gardens have a few spectacular spots that I love. It has an Aroma garden which has tons of aromatic flowers to smell, the Secret Garden is so cool and right out of a story book, my all time favorite is the Light of The world exhibit. There are no words to describe it.

The farm always seems to be the least busy and extremely interactive and informative for kids and adults alike. My kids got to milk a cow, ride a pony, and feed the animals all in the same day.

The dinosaur and curiosity museum is an absolute must if you have kids or just love museums. They among some of the best museums I ve been too.

Cleanest theater I've been to in a long time. The reclining seats are great!

This place has anything for any age. Excellent for local families to take kids or for visitors and foreigners to see.

They have done so much here! The butterfly exhibit, dinosaurs, the farm, curiosity museum, the gardens ALL of it! It's amazing!

Fun activities for family. They know how to make a place friendly and fun. Polynesian fiesta was great.

We are a Thanksgiving Pt family with a membership. We love the high quality educational entertainment it provides.

Went to a pre opening visit to the butterfly biosphere. It was incredible, alot of butterflies but they are more active around noon

It is my favorite place. When I go there I get the tuna melt with their house fries and a drink and it's always fresh and I love it

Tulip Festival was nice. A lot of walking but you can rent a golf cart. Thought there would be more tulips. The entrance and exit were same doors which caused a lot of congestion. Prices in gift shop were high.

Nice museum. Not large huge can make it through quickly. Oriented towards a young crowd. Children will enjoy the dioramas and activities. Children cost is ok but a bit pricey for an all adult party.

Okay selection, surprisingly high quality food, but boy is this place LOUD! Can be a bit of a deterrent as far as I'm concerned. I need a little more ambience to enjoy my meal.

Very difficult to find your way around this place. But really nice when you go inside.

This place has a ton going on. There's a lot to do and my family always has a good time here. The pricing is on the high end for a lot of things but I wouldn't call it overpriced.

To think this place used to be a swamp blows my mind. The gardens are so well taken care of. There's so many flowers and a man made waterfall that just is so perfect. This place is a secret to me. You can chill out and read a book by some shade during the afternoon and come back in the night and enjoy a film with your friends.
Luminaria is another story. It's the most incredible light festival you'll ever see. Make sure to stop in the greenhouse to check out the extremely detailed gingerbread houses. Get yourself some good hot chocolate. It's so cool, words can't express it. Thanksgiving point does have a lot of Christain landmarks to it and it definitely has its own theme going. I'm not into it but it was still so well put together it honestly didn't bother me.
And then the Tulips Festival. It's just so beautiful and you can't take enough pictures. There's honestly so much to do there and so much light coming from one place that essentially "resurrected" it's circumstances and is now one of the most beautiful gardens in the world. It's not pricey either.

The butterfly biosphere is an excellent addition to the thanksgiving point attractions! Just get the year pass, there is plenty to make it worth it!

There are places to eat and a movie theater. The butterfly dome is pretty cool as well as the dinosaur museum. There are some good activities for younger kids.

Always a treat to visit the garden, see the lights, go to weddings, the museum, the food! Everything adds up to many many fun afternoons

Every time I've been to this theater the concessions have been slow. Every time. I get it, sometimes places get slammed, But today, I waited 30 minutes for nachos, was late for my movie, and my food was completely burned. No one was ever around to even ask for a refund. This theater has been lacking for years, and it shows by how they've downsized their lobby, like an outdated shopping outlet. Maybe it's time they closed their doors. This place is a joke. Cinemark, here I come.

I love this place. Pay for the year round pass and come here weekly. The only way to go!
