Pilcher Park Nature Center

Great place to visit! The nature center is small enough to give you that hometown personalized service one on one! The staff is super and very knowledgeable. My granddaughter was able to pet a ferret as well as touch one of the snakes with the handlers supervision. One of the trails had "diary of a worm " booklet tied to the trees and as we walked along, we read each of the laminated pages - it was fun and we learned some interesting facts about worms! It's a great outing for a morning or afternoon! Oh, and don't forget to stop in the greenhouse too!!

This is an excellent park located in a forest. The lodge has an array of live animals (turtles, snakes, fish, etc). The trails are easy and beautiful. My only critique is the trails are well marked in some areas and not marked at all in others. This did make it hard to find the trail when coming back.

Went to our grand children's birthday party there. They had one of the people show animals and information about them to the kids and adults! Very informative and fun!! Great time was had by all!!
