点评:IGNORE THE HATERS. Just ignore them! I’ve been bringing friends and family here for 9 years. This is OLD FLORIDA. Yes, it’s weird and quirky and strange. Yes some of it is run down or dirty (especially the men’s room!), but there is absolutely nothing like it anywhere else in Florida, and probably the world.
TAlK to the staff and you’ll better appreciate what they’ve gone through trying to run AND improve this place. Yes! There have been noticeable improvements over the past few years, but the removal of some animals the limits on which you can feed and what you can feed them are courtesy of our government. That’s all I’ll say about that! But most of the critters have water on demand and places to avoid people when they desire,
Most of the fish tanks are noticeably cleaner as are the grounds and the spooky indoor miniature golf, alone worth the price of admission!
Last year they added a cheesy guided tour to begin your day. I think it’s much more for the little ones but they address everyone.
I would have given it 5 stars, but I just can’t get over that men’s restroom! Take Dad’s advice and “go at home before you leave” or stop somewhere on the way. That urinal perpetually covered by a trash bag year after year and the often backed up toilet are the perpetual parts of the experience I’d rather miss.
翻译:别理会那些喷子。真的,别理他们!我带朋友和家人来这里已经九年了。这里才是真正的老佛罗里达。没错,它有点怪异,有点古怪,有点另类。没错,有些地方破败不堪,有点脏乱(尤其是男厕所!),但在佛罗里达州,乃至全世界,都绝对找不到第二个这样的地方。
和工作人员聊聊,你就会更能体会到他们为了经营和改善这个地方所付出的努力。没错!过去几年里,这里确实有了显著的改善,但一些动物的移除,以及对喂食种类和数量的限制,都是政府的“恩赐”。我就说到这儿吧!不过,大多数动物都能随时喝到水,而且在需要的时候也有地方躲避人群。
大多数鱼缸都明显干净多了,园区也干净了不少,还有那个阴森森的室内迷你高尔夫球场,光是这个就值回票价了!
去年,他们还增加了一个有点俗气的导览游,作为一天的开始。我觉得这里更适合小孩子,但他们也照顾到了所有人。
本来我会给五星好评,但我实在无法接受男厕所!听爸爸的劝告,“出门前先在家解决一下”,或者在路上找个地方解决。那个小便池年复一年都被垃圾袋盖着,马桶也经常堵塞,这些都是我宁愿错过的糟糕体验。
