Reviewed By caseysellshomes November 2025Just one of the coolest little spots with the pub right behind it and the zoo across the street. What’s not to love. Plus their turtles
Full ReviewWhat fun!
Reviewed By MargieD300 June 2025Amazing turtle sculptures! Great for climbing and sitting - and across the street from the St Louis Zoo. Designed by American sculptor Bob Cassilly, the park was opened in 1966.
Full ReviewNot a big park, but cute.
Reviewed By jillmW4256DE August 2024Cute little park. The sculptures are fun, but I didn't understand the baby turtle eggs and the snake. Could use a bit more landscaping but overall nice for a few pictures.
