This was my 2nd time here, but the first time I took my five year old and it was very cool. It really looks like how an old western town would look. The petting zoo was ok. I'm not a big fan of petting zoos, but my daughter liked seeing the animals and it did not smell as bad as... More

This is a recreation of an old west town. They are trying hard to fix it up, but it is very old and run down. Part of the site, including the train, is only open weekends. The actors in the dramedy and the hanging are very personable with kids and adults and seem to enjoy themselves. The petting zoo is... More

We went to Bonnie Springs but we did not actually pay for any services and I was extremely disappointed about the situation. If you plan to go, call ahead and try to confirm the times for your activities (especially horseback rides) but good luck getting a solid answer. I communicated my frustration via e-mail message but have never received a... More

I've been going here for years and just took the grandson yesterday. Was pleased to see that they have done a major facelift and the place looks great !! Rode the train, watched the gun fight and hanging and had lunch which is always good. I don't understand how reviewers have gotten lost and "drove 20 miles into the mountains".... More

This place was great! Unlike most things in Vegas, this attraction was priced very well! The live shows were hilarious! This is definitely a must do if you have children who love cowboys! More

Apparently, this place has been an old west town attraction since the 1950's. I saw a description of this place that said it had a gunfight. I read it to my husband and he really wanted to go. We finally found the place (I missed the turn and we ended up 20 miles into the mountains). There isn't much of... More

Not a bad day trip. Only $7 a person to get in. We enjoyed the petting zoo. The animals were very friendly and liked to be fed the food, which cost 25 cents for a handful. The deer was a little overzealous and tried to eat my shirt but it was ok. Also enjoyed walking around the duck pond. The... More

This was a really fun, old-time attractions, perhaps the first family-activity attraction in Nevada. If you're expecting Disney-type glitz you'll be disappointed, but for old-west ghost towns in a desert environment, it was just right. It could use a lot of paint and some restoration, but the price was so reasonable and the atmosphere was relaxed, friendly and cheerful. The... More
