A definite must for animal lovers. Not a typical petting zoo; never been swarmed by dozens of deer at a petting zoo. They will suck on your clothes if you're wearing anything flowy. And when you feed them, their deer lips will get your palm all slobbery. But it's worth it for some serious deer bonding time.
The boldness of the hungry deer might be overpowering for frightened little children, who may ask to be held rather than slobbered upon.

We saw this on our way to the Grand Canyon from Flagstaff. I was traveling with my 14 yr old son and my mother. We stopped by just to check it out and we all turned 6 again. Even my 14 yr. old admired the magic of the place. I mean, you step into a childhood cartoon, a childhood memory. It is not what it used to be I am sure, it looks a little rough, but I think that gives it more of a realistic stone age feel. We all took turns sliding down the tail of the dinosaur yelling "Yabadabadoo," just like Fred Flintstone at quitting time!

- Williams, Arizona - Pete's Route 66 Gas Station Museum
Pete's Route 66 Gas Station Museum is the best place to see old Route 66 stuff and memorabilia. It is very authentic and all the things are original. Ester and Pete are very nice people and you get good information about Williams, Route 66, and all about old gas stations. Admission is free, but you should leave a tip to support this great place. The best on Route 66 in town!

Bearizona is well worth the admission and stop. We saw plenty of animals in the driving portion, as well as the walk-through exhibit. Plus there's a petting zoo with goats and chickens!

This is one of our favorite Roadside America stops so far, and well worth the detour. Even my indignant teen was impressed! We arrived just as the sun was setting and had the place to ourselves, which added to surreal experience of walking into a Hannah Barbara cartoon. I definitely got my five dollars worth in photographs.

The museum is actually in an old gas station, with a 1950 Ford parked under the canopy next to the glass bowl gas pumps.
