Reviews
"Very cozy place! Have 2 parts - for both sides of the street. There are a lot of parking spots and a charming church with stunning lake walks. Price is very affordable - $7 per adult."
"Perfect aquarium for young kids! Enough displays and tanks to entertain them, but not so many as to be overwhelming. We went on a rainy day so spent most of our time in the 2 buildings. There were other things to do outside, and fish & turtles to see, if the weather had been better. Very reasonable entrance fee."
"Very nice place to visit. Not too big at all. There is an aquarium here, but the focus is on fresh water fish from new york state. There sre frongs and turtles and salamanders and a few snakes. The outdoor pens are where the fish are corralled. If you stop to take in everything they have it will take about an hour. Perhaps it would be best to go when they hold a special event. The folks who work there care about their fishy friends."
"This place is not too big, but it is very interesting to see all the fish jumping, the old turtles pool, the snakes, frogs, etc. There are two houses to visit (one red house across the pools that make sure you dont miss) There is a huge lake behind it that has an amazing view and your pictures become awesome. There is lots of parking."
"George the tour guide was AMAZING!!! VERY INFORMATIVE!!! Took a few campers here for a guided tour. The facility was clean, a great variety of animals. We were able to feed the trout and that was a great experience. Seeing the yellow spotted salamander up close was pretty cool too. Definitely recommend this place for all ages a great outing."
