Super cool! A ton of local wildlife and so much information on each animal. A beautiful place! The playground is also awesome.

My husband and I really enjoyed the trails and exhibits. It's very family and child friendly. They've done a lot of updates since I had last visited. The animals are neat although we went at a time where many were sleeping. I can't wait until my next visit. The cost of entry is definitely worth it.

A nice representation of NH wildlife. The staff are caring and knowledgeable, ready to answer any questions. There is a great indoor interactive play area (chevron closed to COVID), and a very nice outdoor playground where you can pretend to be a squirrel evading predators. My kids love this place!

Very nice place, clean and informative. Different from other places - lots for kids to learn hands on. I was a little apprehensive due to the cost and not many animals but felt like it was worth every penny. I would recommend packing a lunch and taking advantage of the trails - make a full day out of it.

Absolutely exceptional place to go. I've been to other nature centers in Maine and New Hampshire and love this the most. The enclosures were well taken care of and the employees cared very much for the animals. The raptors were very well taken care of and the place was not run down like some other places. A lot of my family went of all different ages and every one of them was captivated by the beautiful animals. A very natural Scenic setting and much education. Check out some of the photos.
