We took my kids and my niece for a tour of the nature Center..the staff was friendly and helpful and let the kids visit and experience the animals in a way they could not normally get to do outside of that environment..very educational!

they do a great event as you enter the nature center. every step you take may be your last! its scary fun for the whole family. the customs and student volunteers are well prepared for this event and the price per person is great. We try to go every year and each time walk away with a favorite. this time... More

While I won't re-hash the previous reviews (old, run-down, over-priced, in need of repairs, etc.), I would like to add a caution to anyone with strollers and/or wheel chairs - THIS LOCATION IS NOT HANDICAP FRIENDLY! Our group included my sister who has a motorized wheel chair. We were NOT advised upon getting there that most of the facility is... More

The cost of 10 bucks to get in the door left me hopeful. However, disappointment hit once we made it past the welcome desk. Hand made cages and displays coupled with aquariums on stands was about all they had to offer on the first floor. Outside thee was a small touch tank, but it only had three fish in it... More

They decorate a really long walking trail, and for the last three years I take the family out for the Christmas walk. They have a great area where they have all kinds of animals they rescue. I have never had a bad time when I came to visit. Very family friendly, and very engaging for my two year old.

It was a beautiful afternoon and thought lets go to the Nature Center. upon arrival everyone was completely dissappointed. There was hardly anything to see and what was there wasn't was kept, the place smelled of animal feces and the tanks were filthy. The trails were boring and overgrown. The planetarium saved it a little bit, but that is the... More

Took a friend there, from up North ,very disappointing. Few birds, looking bedraggled and neglected. No butterflies in butterfly house! No staff members in sight. Facility is run down and dirty They are charging outrageous fees and giving nothing . By contrast, Peace River Wildlife Center in Punta Gorda is very well maintained, staff is friendly and informative. Lots of... More

My son and I went and it was very disappointed. It seemed dirty, and not well kept. I would not recommend this stop....spend your time and money on something worthwhile.

$10 each! are you kidding me! we were welcomed by McDonalds garbage and old plastic water bottles which had sat at the entrance of the building for some time... no toilet paper or hand soap in the rest rooms and the a/c was out at the planetarium... The nature trail did not have one stinking animal... I live here and... More
