Super cool! A ton of local wildlife and so much information on each animal. A beautiful place! The playground is also awesome.

Very nice place for kids to walk, run, play, and learn in the warmer months when they are open. Feels more like a stroll through the woods with intermittent animal displays and play areas than a typical zoo. Has good educational sessions, excellent outdoor and indoor playgrounds, and a nice little hike off on one side.

Fun, family friendly zoo. This facility is built and maintained to be a very natural setting for the animals. They have native species to New Hampshire like fox, fishers, deer and black bears. You get to enjoy a beautiful walk in the woods while learning about the local wildlife. They also recently built a wooden kids play area that my 13 yr old and 5 yr old love. Beautiful facility, animals areas well maintained, friendly staff. We are annual visitors.

Had a fun visit there with my kids. We saw a presentation with a live porcupine which was cool. The presenter was very engaging. We spent about two hours total, just drifting around the main loop looking at everything there. The mountain lion and bobcat were pretty neat to see.

Lots to see, nice trails easy enough for a toddler to walk and explore. There is even a playground for kids. There is a picnic area just inside with plenty of tables and a place to buy snacks if you didn't pack your own.
