Cool place to visit. We rented Lucy's Den Cabin for a weekend. A bit pricey for what it was. Cabin could use a better coffee pot and more attention to cleanliness. (In cabinets and drawers was a bit of roach/bug feces.) Pool was ok'. The tour ride around was awesome though. Tour guide was great and very informative about wildlife. Very cool animals all around. Great for kids.

10/10!!! Love this place ❤️ We had a great time. Definitely recommend the guided tours. They are able to go off the trail and the animals know to come right to the trailer. My family had a blast!! Family of 5 used 3 buckets of feed so fast. Tour guide, Tuesday, she was awesome and so friendly. She took time when the animals approached and insured we had a wonderful experience. Thank you so much!!

This zoo is a great place to visit with kids! In addition to designated areas where both children and adults can get up close with animals, there are also plenty of interactive experiences available (though they require an extra fee). Besides the family-friendly play areas, visitors can also drive through the park to feed the animals. The park boasts a rich and diverse ecosystem, making it a fascinating experience. If there’s one thing to note, it’s that the animals here seem incredibly eager for food! The moment a car approaches, they swarm around it, and even after being fed, they’ll try to stick their heads through the windows or chase after the vehicle. They’re definitely enthusiastic! Of course, I’m joking when I say they look “starved”—all the animals appear to be very healthy and well cared for. One of the most exciting highlights was seeing American bison and Scottish Highland cattle that were even larger than my car! On the other hand, the baby sheep and young Highland cattle were absolutely adorable. It was truly a memorable experience!

We had an absolutely fantastic time at Exotic Zoo Resort! The property is beautiful, with so much to see and do. The playscape was a hit with the LO, and we loved relaxing under the stars and roasting marshmallows in the one of many fire pits. The animal interactions were incredible—getting to see all the exotic animals up close was a highlight, and kissing the camel was so fun and quirky! The petting zoo was also a great experience, with tons of friendly animals to feed and pet. The only downside was the kiddie pool—it was a bit dirty with leaves and bugs when we arrived. But after cleaning it out a little, we still had a great time swimming and enjoying the day. Overall, Exotic Zoo Resort is a must-visit for animal lovers and families. We can’t wait to go back and experience it all again! Highly recommend!
