| - I have to say, the road to Bonnie Springs is absolutely amazing. Bonnie Springs itself is like a secret gem within Las Vegas.
Located far off Charleston on the west side of the mountains. Is old town Vegas that seems very interesting for tourist and kids alike. The drive there is amazing. Then again I'm that kind of person who like the scenic view of the mountains and the valley surrounding it. It's not far from Red Rock either. So, able to drive threw Red Rock was also a treat. But arriving at Bonnie Springs, it was kind of interesting, since its a narrow road and have to drive close to the bushes whenever oncoming vehicles are leaving. We were also stopped by a few burros that were just roaming the road. One of them actually came to sniff the hood of our car. It was interesting and funny at the same time. Kind of slowed us down to our final destination but it was kind of cool.
Getting there, parking wasn't the usual parking lot you might expect but a pit in the area and find your own parking spot is more like it. Which was okay, it wasn't as busy, but there were a few cars here and there.
They had a small train track for people to ride a train around the area, but I guess it wasn't working. But we were able to get our wrist band for the petting zoo. I thought the animals would be fenced, but when we got into the area, animals are just wondering around in one big cage. There are a few animals that are behind fences but those that are wondering are harmful. We got to pet goats, deers, donkey and see animals behind fences or cages within the big fence. Those animals wondering around you can also feed. They have this gumball looking machine that has animal feed in it. Put in a quarter and out comes the feed. It was a nice experience, especially if you like petting zoos.
We even walked around the old Vegas town, where it shows how the old town looked like, where people got married and still can get married there today. Even the old steal mill that they had. They had a wax museum but its more of a guided museum where there is a set time slots that you have to be at the door by, in order to be guided threw the museum.
We also went to their restaurant which seems really decent. But I have that in a different review. I do find it very cleanly and unique and customer service is good.
Overall, if you want to look on how old Vegas use to be back before there were casinos. This might be a good place to check out. The petting zoo, taking a look at old Vegas and other activities, all in one place is probably worth the trip. Especially looking at the scenery of the mountains and Red Rock is a plus. Very well recommended
