Super disappointing. Drove nearly 40 minutes to get to Lazy 5 and realized they don’t take debit or credit cards. We asked where we could find an ATM and as we exited, we saw a tremendously large Tr… Full review by eejaykay

I didn’t know this place existed. I visited ZOOTASTIC PARK and this would have been on my way home towards the north. Can anyone tell me which one is better or how much different are the two? Also has anyone gone to tiger world to compare?

Just as with the other replies, we too go to Lazy 5 and Tiger World almost yearly and both are very much worth the visit. However, unlike most of the reviews for Lazy 5, we prefer not to go on the wagon rides for several reasons: the tractor rides are on set schedules and must return at set times whether you’ve seen all the animals or not. In your car, you travel at your own pace. Also, while the carts pulled by the tractors do have small canopy’s, you spend a good amount of time sitting in direct sunlight; and during the summer months with NC’s heat and humidity, you will start to be relatively uncomfortable from the sun and heat after just a very short distance into the park. Staying in the vehicle is our preference as you can still enjoy the ride through the park with the windows open and the A/C blowing. To add to the fun, stop on the way home at a car wash and give the kids the vacuum hose. For a buck and a half, the car is cleaned up before you even get home! What kid doesn’t like using one of those vacuums? Make your own choices to your preferences but definitely go to both, Lazy 5 AND Tiger World. You will have a great time and agree that it is well worth the money!
They have tables and chairs in a few spots but I don't know if you can take your own food in or not. There were spots for sure to have a picnic if food is allowed.
