We love this zoo, priced right, friendly staff. Only thing is in this chilly weather, to many animals are missing...can't wait to go back in warmer weather, we were there yesterday. My grandkids had so much fun. We will be back as always.
My most favorite place ever! That's why I am there so much! The animals are very well cared for and the staff is very friendly!
Looking for something to do around the Grand Rapids area we opted for the zoo and what a great choice!! As an animal enthusiast, this zoo is packed with different kinds of animals is a very beautiful spacious location along with a super friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this to any one visiting the area!
My experience working with the Bissell Tree House to host my corporate holiday party was spectacular from start to finish. My event coordinator, Darci, was professional, informative and very detailed helping me execute the event without any hiccups. The venue is breathtaking at night in the winter when you can see the Grand Rapids skyline and a light dusting of snow on the trees. Darci coordinated arrivals/setup with all my vendors coming in making my life easier. There were staff members posted all over to direct my guests ... read more
The Zoo has always been one of my favorite places. It's amazing that some of the animals (Gerald and Betty among them) are the same ones I loved as a child--but at the same time there's so much MORE zoo than there was then. Mokomboso Valley, Lake Manyara, the Woodland and River Realms, and Wallaby Way all delight me the same way the otter and puma exhibits did when they were new. Keep on growing, JBZoo!
