Two 82 year old seniors visited and were very impressed especially with the knowledgable volunteers. We noticed an elevator, rentals for strollers, wheelchairs and scooters. We enjoyed walking among the Australian area, the Californian gardens, Nairobi Walk, through the African Loop to the African Tram for a 30 minute ride to see the huge animals. A keeper shared the Tiger talk and another showed us an ambitious turtle. It is a spacious place, well looked after, and lovely to see the elephants as we walked up the hill. There was a bit of wind and we noticed the hot air balloon was not available for rides. It was a wonderful day especially to see a new baby born among the animals.

My husband and I stayed at the Welk resort while out visiting family in California. We were very pleased with our visit at the resort. The golf course was great and in excellent condition. The staff everywhere was friendly, we loved the Canyon Grille.The food was exceptional and the wait staff was excellent. The only issue we had was the TV, we made a call they came right up and fixed it and then followed up. That was one of the things we noticed that they follow up. We would most definitely stay again, and recommend it highly to others.
