Beautiful place to visit. We took our 2 young ones and they were amazed at all the wildlife and beautiful flowers. Tons of butterflies too! The staff in the nature center were very nice and were happy to answer any questions. Truly a beautiful place to visit. Even the bathrooms were very clean.

A great place to take amateur photos. I love it here. I bring my dog all the time. Perfect for family picnic. You can sit here all day and just relax in the shade. Also trail's to walk that will lead you to another park I believe. Also have a reptile nature center. Only con I have is people getting high in the parking lot.

This place is therapeutic in the early morning and for a break from the concrete jungle of life’s bustling daily to-dos! I took my toddler exploring, unfortunately they were closed to go inside but the outside views, ponds and Little Rock trails didn’t disappoint. We saw Dragon Flies, butterflies, hummingbirds, hawks, geese, ducks, squirrels! When trying to attempt to open a door a nice man named Guillermo came out to politely let us know the center was closed today for an event but he brought us out a DIY nature project to come back when open and can’t wait to come back! Thank you so much the experience was so nice!

Is there allowe do sports outdoor

Gustavo Montanez | Aug 22, 2018
Airñ Haz’rrd | Aug 22, 2018

"Sports allowed?" This question begs for clarification, it's vague. Human & wild animal SAFTEY comes FIRST! That said, commercial sports, I believe not at all, however, if you were to have a sporting event, such as a paper airplane contest, sure I believe thats acceptable. In any case why go to a nature/animale park for sport entertainment while there are many sport parks everywhere?
