After a long drive all you get to do is stare at some deer through a fence and the kids feed them a bag of food through the fence too. That's it!! Definitely a waste of money. No one even came and explained anything to the 10 kids we had there. Very disappointed!! More

We had 1 of those passes bought online one day deals, and even that was over priced, my poor 3 year old was so excited to be going only to be completely disappointed when getting there. Would never go back or recommend More

It was like being in an open zoo environment. The deer come up to the car. It was okay but not somewhere that I would return to. More

More information on American Indian lifestyle and culture as opposed to spirituality would have been helpful. As well, the lengthy talk at the beginning was not suitable for our Y4 students. More

I bought a special off the web for this and am glad I didn't pay full price. You have to buy food to feed the deer after you pay an overprice just to see the deer. Was expecting more. More

This was a big disappointment. I had bought tickets for our family through one of those one-day internet deal sites. For $15 for a family of 4 it was still a complete rip-off. There was NOTHING to do there. All the deer are behind a big wire fence- you can stick your hands through and pat them or feed them... More
