Reviews
"I love this place! So many memories from when I was a kid. It was great to be able to share them with my little dog Boo Boo. Leo the Lynx and Boo Boo are best friends now."
"First: HAL! The Groundhog! Clean, lots of space for events, loads of parking. Easy to find using maps. Colorful "wood with hole" for photos."
"This was orchestrated quite well. Plenty of parking and easy access to the main entrance. Check in process is best if you prepay for tickets. Don't waste time waiting in line to buy tickets in person. The display is tasteful and great variety with different rooms. Outdoor decorations were nice as you exit or take outdoor pictures. Money from pictures which is optional helps support the animals onsite."
"The Holtsville Ecology Center's Christmas lights display is a magical experience, especially for kids. With twinkling lights that bring the festive spirit to life, it's a winter wonderland that captivates the young and the young at heart. Admission is reasonably priced at $10 per adult, and kids under 3 enter free, making it a great family outing. The opportunity to meet Santa, though a bit steep at $30, offers a wholesome and memorable experience. This enchanting light display is a must-visit destination for those seeking to immerse themselves in the holiday spirit."
"Nice small zoo to visit, animals look well-cared for. I actually like that you can see animals close enough. Highlight of the visit was black bear’s enclosure (wanted to check him out again since he was quite funny and friendly few years ago in my 1st visit). Donation is quite appreciated as this is not some typical zoo, but one caring for some disabled animals."
