Deer Forest Park

If you are looking for a good old fashioned place to take the kids or grandkids, this is it. Many animals to feed by hand and pet, amusement rides, mini-golf, playground, train, ice-cream parlor. Great place to bring a picnic, lots of tables. Clean bathrooms. Many improvements have been done this year.Don't miss it. Pros: ample parking, clean bathrooms, lots to do,spend the whole day Cons: children will get dirty (having fun) more

\r This past weekend my family and I (My husband, son and daughter) visited Deer Park. Let me just say that for $46.50 it left A LOT to be desired.\r \r First of all the way it is represented on the website is that the park is clean and inviting. Let me tell you from our visit it was not. It was filthy. The rides were covered in mud and not to mention the ride operator was rude. The only animals we saw were the deer, a bobcat, a turtle, a rabbit and the goats. Of which the stench from the Bobcat cage was appalling and it had look like the cage hadn't been cleaned in weeks.\r \r They had plenty of ""hand"" stations throughout the park however only a few actually had hand sanitizer.\r \r The highlight of our trip was actually leaving. My children were disappointed, and we were disgusted. This was not a place that we would recommend, and this is certainly not the Deer Forest that my parents and my husband's parents remember visiting as children. more
