Not quite 5 star worthy, but definitely worth the trip. It's expensive ($31 for adults), so definitely try to score BOGO coupons. Also, there are a couple small rides inside that cost extra. Bottled water... $4. Yikes it can really add up! My favorite part of the whole zoo is feeding the giraffes. Not only do you get close enough to feed them, it's close enough for them to wrap their slimy blue tongues around your hand! So gross but so cool, lol. The kangaroo area is free range that you walk through, love it! Anyway, lots of animals. Warning: the indoor attractions are hot and smell horrendous :-/. Also, it's great if you love birds because there are soooo many. Oh look, more birds! So I'm not a huge zoo person... Just walking around looking at animals in cages... But this one is worth the drive for some good close ups.
