HorsePower for Kids & Animal Sanctuary

We had an amazing time at HorsePower for Kids & Animal Sanctuary! The kids (two boys, 9 and 4) had the chance to get up close with so many animals, and the experience felt very natural—not over-constructed like many zoos and aquariums. One of the highlights was the pony ride, which brought huge smiles to my boys' faces. Feeding the goats was also a lot of fun. Tons of smiles. And also felt like amazing value for a day trip relative to other Tamps attractions.

We had a wonderful experience with our toddler. The place has a variety of animals for kids to see up close. The free train ride and guinea pig petting experience was lovely.

There is so much to see and do! There are many animals, some of which I never thought I would get to pet or touch. Kangaroos have very soft chins and love to be petted! There was a friendly camel and zebra too that came right up to me. For kids there are also a couple of play areas with not only traditional playground equipment, but a couple of zip lines and a large area filled with dry corn kernels- much nicer than sand! Horsepower for Kids is a gem- a delightful experience from start to finish!

Great family friendly place! Tons of different animals and wildlife. While I considered the admission prices fair, they do have financial applications for anyone fallen on hard times! This is a terrific program! Huge play areas for kids to have fun, petting zoo part of it is great and you can even go in with a bunch of goats. Though, some get a bit ornery so be cautious with smaller children. You can also buy pellets to feed the animals which turns into a feeding frenzy if you bring it in the goat pen lol. Overall, terrific place for kids and adults! It seemed to me the animals were well taken care of, and had a huge area to roam around in. So you won't see large animals in a 10' x 10' cage which is amazing!

WOW!!! What a hidden gem! Simply incredible up close and personal access to an incredible number of animals! Want to go again- as an adult- just bc it’s so so cool!! Took 4 year old and she was blown away! Where can you pet and feed kangaroos, pigs, goats, zebras, and dozens of other animals?
