    A great day!
    I took my family here while we were down for Siblings weekend at ISU. I used to come here while I was in college with friends and it was such a nice break from college life. The zoo is on the smaller side, but my husband, college freshman and HS sophomore thought it was great. It was even better than I remember. The lake, the Southern Pacific caboose, nickel plate rail road locomotive and war cannons were interesting to my family. It was a great day.

    Little but good for toddlers
    We went to the zoo it's small but we had toddlers so they enjoyed it. It's right next to a playground and a splahpad we were going to go to the playground but it started to storm halfway through. It's a nice little zoo to get out of the car at if your traveling with toddlers.

    Great Zoo
    This a great smaller zoo. I would definitely suggest to people with smaller children. Something to do and enjoy. Not a lot of walking and great up close with the animals.

    Cutest little zoo ever!
    We were in town for a wedding and had a few hours to kill. Decided to go to the Miller Park zoo with our teenagers and we all LOVED it! Hardly anyone there so we could spend as much time as we wanted at each exhibit. Animals were active. Staff very friendly. It’s small but very nice!

    Pathetic Zoo
    The poorest excuse for a zoo I have seen in my whole life.. 1st grade School Field Trip. Cost $13.90 for 2 to get in, should have been $9.00 for chaperone's. Over half of their exhibits were empty... I would not recommend this zoo to anyone..

    A Gem that Bloomington / Normal is lucky to have!
    I go to the zoo several times a year. Most people do not realize how nice of a zoo we have here in blono. Highly encourage you to visit and see for yourself. I am a photographer and have taken dozens of excellent images at our zoo.

    Beautiful park. It has a small, but nice zoo. Splash pad for kids is exceptionally nice! Worth the trip to Bloomington!

    Good Outdoor Activity
    This was a nice outdoor activity during COVID. It's a small zoo, but our grandchildren enjoyed it, and we did, too. The carousel was not running because of COVID restrictions. They had several inflatable Halloween decorations, but they were not inflated. We don't know if that was because it was windy the day we visited or if they don't inflate them until evening. It's pricey for such a small zoo - $6.95 for adults and $4.95 for youth ages 3-12. There is a nice playground outside the zoo.

    great zoo for a small town
    Wide variety of animals. Great place to take kids. Wife and I usually go once a year, not including special showings or event.

    Small, but a nice place
    This is a very small zoo, but it is a very nice place to stop, especially if you have small children. They have a carousel, and a nice park for kids to play with several monuments right next to the zoo to look at. Everything was well taken care of and reasonably priced.

    Nice place
    Went on a Sunday still not to busy everyone was polite. Very nice zoo for a town this size. Hopefully they can keep the price down for all to enjoy it's not a bad deal now.

    Perfect size zoo for a half day trip
    Today was our first time at Miller Park Zoo. This zoo is the perfect size for a half day trip with kids. It’s not too big, but not small either. The zoo is clean and has a lot of animals. The playground and splash pad next store is great too. I highly recommend the zoo and playground area.

Very good zoo given the size of Bloomington. Don't expect a "big city" zoo; yet get better than you'd think. We spent just under 2 hours here. Easy to follow paths. Wide variety of animals: Australian walk-about, tortoise, wolves, birds, goats (can be fed and petted), guanacos, flamingos, otters, tiger, red pandas and more. They have a lunch counter; plenty of tables. Plenty of shade (we went on a warm day), yet also open areas. Great for kids of all ages.

This is a “cute” little zoo perfect for a day with family. Easy to walk, well maintained and reasonably priced. It’s perfect for a afternoon with grandma and grandpa and not overly crowded like many big zoos.

Nice clean small zoo. Perfect 3 hour activity. Hit the splash pad & park while you’re there! Take your own snacks & bring towels for the splash pad.

Miller Park Zoo is fine for younger children. But if you’re comparing it to Lincoln Park or Brookfield Zoo - you’ll be sorely disappointed. It’s kept up good but not in the best part of town.

Wow - many changes since I was a kid! Fun clean zoo and a great zoo for kids. Plenty to do and see! Parking can be limited depending upon the day and what else is going on at the park.

Small but semi-maintained park, has a lot to see and do, if children are traveling with you. It is an easy walk and has inside and outside exhibits. It is situated in a very nice park area.Seen several student groups being entertained by zoo staff and their lectures. It is well worth the price of admission, I and the people that I was with enjoyed it and you go at your own pace. I recommend it for all ages

We loved the zoo! For the price, we feel that we got our money's worth! Most of the animals were out and about. Did not see the flamingoes and the inside of the big cat habitats were closed, but other than that, it was a great experience!
