This place was fantastic! I wasn't sure how it was going to be, but they're really great here. It has a ride-through safari where you drive your own car through. It was very fun and felt like you were going on an adventure! I couldn't help from singing the Jurassic Park theme the whole time...
My favorite part by far was feed the bears!!! For $5 you get a cup of frozen grapes that literally throw out to the bears! Oso, a HUGE Grizzly bear knows how this works and waits for you to throw and you literally play catch. It was wonderful! This isn't one of those dumb things where you put food into a plastic slide... you literally throw it from your car into the huge area where they live. I guess it's good for them too because they are foraging what they miss.
Other highlights were seeing Buffalo, lions, tigers, cheetah's and elephants... but again, the bears stole the show.
Additionally, you can walk around their "zoo" near the visitors center. I think that part might be free. It was VERY cool!!!
The ONE place that this place must improve is the restaurant. That almost costs them a star, but the place was so much fun, I'm letting them keep it. The staff is VERY friendly. But the food itself is incredibly limiting and the most stereotypical "them park" food you could think of. Everything else about this place breaths top notch, so not sure why they let this slip so much. If you're on a road trip out this way... definitely stop!!!
