So friendly! We were there for “meet the animals” and got to touch snakes and lizards. They even have an axolotl!

This is a hidden gem! Great for young children and completely free! They have lots of reptiles for the kids to see and staff will even take some out for them to touch! They have story hour and meet an animal at 11 daily when they’re open and it was lovely. They have a library to spend time in as well. Bathrooms were clean and plentiful. The adjacent trails along the river are great too. My kids loved it.

No

Do you have a gift shop, and if so, do you sell children's books?

I can confirm that the Nature Center does NOT have a gift shop or items available for purchase.
