This is a very pricey cross between a zoo and a nature trail. The science center features several exhibits relating to the animals in the area. It also has exhibits relating to conservation etc. They offer animal shows, demonstrating live animals several times a day, and feedings three days a week, so check the schedule to see if your favorite is on display. In addition to the move animal exhibits the center features several walking trails offering an opportunity to see local wildlife and plant life. Most tree species are marked for easy identification of the local foliage. There is also a ninety minute boat tour of squam lake available for an additional fee.

At only $22 for an adult, this place was incredible for its modest size. The staff was very quick to service and friendly. The park and the restrooms all appeared to be very clean as well. I will say it is very heavily directed at children for a learning experience. But I absolutely love that honestly. If you are in to nature and conservation then you know that teaching the children about these wonderful animals and ecosystems is the key to sustaining them for generations to come. The exhibits were very straightforward and the educational aspects were presented in fun ways ranging from buttons to highlight points of interest, buttons to play the different sounds of similar animals, and many sliding/rotating levers to reveal fun facts and differences between photos/items on display. Loved everything about this place, and next time I'm in New Hampshire, I will definitely be returning!

Squam lakes was a great experience. It was very expensive to get in so I recommend checking your library to see if they have discount passes. At every exhibit there is an activity for your child to do such as puzzles or matching and etc. There is a great picnic area as well as nice playground for the kids. The animatronic dinosaurs were great for my son. They also had a cool spot where there are slides inside and tunnels. We didn't mind spending the money since all the money goes towards the native animals that are there either from being rescued or orphaned. My family spent 3 hrs here. We would go again but with passes. For a family of four it was $92. That's with two kids. Very interactive here.
