Reptile Discovery Center

Large collection of venomous snakes and live venom extraction program twice daily. Nature trail, picnic facilities. Open Thurs-Sunday.

Reviewed By E8097OCjamesc - DeLand, United States

Been here a few times. Small, but very cool. Awesome exhibit to walk through inside as well as doing the snake venom extraction. Very intense and fun, but safe. They also bring out different reptiles for the kids and adults to touch and hold. Another little hidden gem in Deland that people have to check out with the kiddos

Had the pleasure of touring the Stetson Mansion, today (Jan4th, 2019), amazing architecture, the decadent Christmas Decorations, with thought to every detail and theme, loved all the nativity sets, and particularly appreciated the salute to our Military, Veterans and Families..and last but not least our tour guide Sue, and greatly appreciated her love and knowledge, not only of the home, the Stetson Family, but the very generous current owners..Don't Miss it!

Barkley Square Dog Park

Reviewed By Lanceswifealway - DeLand, United States

We just got a puppy and have been taking him to Barkley. It is clean and spacious. A lot better than some of the dog parks I have been too. Recommend. Wish the dog bath would work though. It's been broken for a long time. There are thefts. Don't bring anything of value.
