We drove up from Milford for a day-trip in August. It was an absolutely delightful experience for me and my two kids (6 months and 3 years). We used a jogging stroller and intermittently used a baby harness - both kiddos benefited from opportunities to ride, as the path is relatively long for little legs. We were greeted by lovely staff, who gave us useful information about picnic areas (there are two) and bathrooms (there are several). Then we got to roam around the property, greeting various animals. There was a bat show and a Bard owl that we got to see up close. The only sad part was that the mountain lion wasn't on site the day of our visit. I will definitely be making the trek up to visit this place again next year.

We stopped by here on the suggestion of 2 NH natives as a place our 10 year old grandson would enjoy. Well to use "enjoy" would be an understatement, if I were to describe my grandson's experience. There are so many different exhibits, each inviting and engaging young and old minds alike. The animal habitats are brilliant in design. We watched a presentation on the porcupine that had my techno-geek grandson filling up the Q & A session with his curiosity gone wild. The whole staff is very knowledgeable, professional, and polite. The trail and exhibits are clean and well kept. The whole experience was great for our grandson and myself as well.

Another fun experience at Squam. It was clean and beautiful. Always great to see the animals. The kids always love it.
