What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo
A fantastic place to take a family and spend a few hours. Our kids loved all the various animals and the play structure was a hit too. Lovely grounds, well kept and clearly well cared for animals and very helpful staff. At $10 per person it is a steal of a deal. We’ll be back without question.

Vanderlaand is such a great place for an afternoon trip. You can tell they really take care of their animals and land. 2nd time going and could not be more impressed.

Brought my 3 grandkids today. They really enjoyed themselves! Animals are well cared for, and the owner is very friendly. Lovely park, and very family friendly.
