 | | T.M., Co-op Member | | This zoo was located on the top of Mill Mountain off the Blue Ridge Parkway, it is a beautiful and scenic area. Our time at the zoo was okay, it was small but had a decent variety of animals to see. We enjoyed the location more than the actual zoo. There is a park right next to the zoo, so this trip could be a great relaxing stopover if traveling on the parkway. |
