This is a wonderful experience for animal lovers of all ages! Where else can you feed ring tail lemurs grapes from a porcupine quill and hold a baby kangaroo? The owners have excellent knowledge of the animals and are willing to answer all the questions children pose. There are picnic tables available. We have been on both the schedule tour and the open weekends. Can't go wrong with either. My grandchildren love to visit the safari when they are here from Massachusetts.Adults shouldn't miss out on the fun of feeding.

It was part of the field visit for a summer course. Still, we enjoyed the beautiful views of the area. You can easily get there by university shuttle. There are cool yoga classes in the garden.

Boomer Lake is very scenic lake with a 5K (3.1 miles) track to jog around, fishing, Frisbee golf, canoeing, covered pavilions, restrooms, annual fireworks show, annual Polar Plunge, and yes, lot of friendly Canadian Geese! :) It's a great place to unwind, soak in the view, have some fun, and/or exercise.
