You will miss it if you do not exit the highway. Such a wonderful place. We had a great time wandering around and taking pictures. The product of such a creative generation.

Met Bill Swets, his zoo is still open and he's still working on his sculptures. Don't miss it.

The Swetsville Zoo is awesome! Loved the Snoopy flying ace with Woodstock. There was a clever one of Humpty Dumpty, too. Our kids, ages 3-14, enjoyed it, and even took their shoes off to walk in the creek on the side of the property.
