  We had a blast. Employees were all friendly and very informative. The animals look very healthy and lots of space. I personally would rather drive extra to go here again instead of the Milwaukee zoo to see animals. It is a bit of a walk which we don't mind but they do offer golf carts to get around. Definitely plan to spend at least 2 hours at minimum viewing the animals. Everyone gets a free ice cream before you leave. Will be back again for sure!

  Shalom, come along, where the wild things roam, through woodland and wetland they wander at home. Hoof after hoof and horn after horn, furry old faces from dusk until morn. Elk in the timber, deer in the dell, bison built broader than barn doors as well. Big bucks strut while little bucks stare, antlers like branches stuck up in the air. Wapiti walking, whitetails watching, fuzzy feet plodding while wild things go trotting. Snorters and stompers, grazers and grinners, four-legged loafers awaiting their dinners. Walk it or ride it, take your sweet thyme, wind through the woods at a wandering rhyme. Around every corner another surprise, something with antlers and enormous brown eyes. There’s something quite peaceful about watching them be, beneath Wisconsin woodland, meadow and tree. No hurry to nowhere, no race to be run, just creatures and country and wandering fun. So shalom to the hoofers, the horns and the herd, shalom to the critter, the creature and bird. Come wander, wonder, watch awhile, then leave with a little more wild in your smile. Hoof it. Horn it. Wander and see, wild Wisconsin wandering wonderfully free. From beast in the brush to buck beneath tree, Shalom is a woodland safari to me. Forward, Wisconsin. Peace. Piece. Peas.

  Can’t give it any more stars. Entire park smells like exhaust from all the gas golf carts rented out. Wasn’t even that crowded on the day we went. Wonder what the air quality in the park was. I can’t imagine how miserable it would be if all the carts were rented out. Maybe you should have to have a handicapped sticker to use a cart. 45 dollars for a cart so they make lots of money off them. Not that big of a zoo. Children can be easily pushed in strollers. Animals appeared well cared for. Some enclosures did not look very secure. Won’t be going back and I wont recommend this zoo.

  First time there and didn't know what to expect. Had to wait a few minutes for a golf cart and we arrived before noon. It was extremely busy because it was a beautiful sunny day! We were able to see most of the animals in their enclosures. Some of the wolves and nocturnal ones were hiding. Able to go along the trails through the entire area at our own speed. Staff allowed us to take the golf cart to our vehicle to get a disabled person into it and out of it because the entrance walk way and golf cart parking area is really not wheelchair accessible -- gravel area with potholes and hills. The trails would be difficult in a wheelchair too - packed dirt with lots of hills and holes and tree stumps and roots. Suggest purchasing apple/carrot bucket and grain bucket - lots of animals to feed and petting zoo at the end to feed goats and birds. Can bring in snacks drinks and picnic lunch. Lots of rest areas and shade throughout the entire area. Well worth the money!

  This place is amazing! I’ve lived in the area for almost 20 years, I have never visited and I really wish I had. My son and I will be visiting when we can. It is affordable, a great way to spend the day. Give yourself about 3 hours if you plan to walk it. The walk isn’t that bad in my opinion. I like that they offer pails of feed and pails of apples/carrots to feed some of the animals. Having the opportunity to interact with some of the animals is awesome! The staff is absolutely amazing! I would personally prefer this zoo over others. It’s nice, it’s close to home. The animals look happy and healthy. If an animal is under care, it is acknowledged which I think is great! They truly love and care about their animals! I will continue to support Shalom!! Thanks for an excellent experience!!
