We were disappointed that all the animal feed machines were empty, my niece wanted to feed the animals.. Park was clean, not a lot of people on a Tuesday night so we never waited in line for any ride which was nice. Park is great for kids 12 and under. Lots of playgrounds. Got a ride pass for 17.50 for 10 rides and it was perfect for 2 of us to ride each ride once.

A must have place to go every summer. Families all have a blast at this amazing place! What dont they have??They have bike and walking trails, so many playgrounds, and a nice campgroundbwith many camper spots, cabins and tent spots. There is mini golf, go carts and bumper boats close by with a little lake for swimming. You can rent paddle boats, bikes, and other transportation rigs for kids and adults for water or land! There are also sand volleyball and baseball diamonds for playing outdoor games!Lets not forget Storybook Land is just a short walk away. They have a small zoo and the Land of Oz as well.Like I said, you cant go wrong! Check it out!! We will be back again next year!

Really enjoyed myself during a visit to Aberdeen, SD. There are so many things to do within the park area. Storybook Land is great for the kids and is kept up very well. I believe the upkeep comes from donations so entry into the park is free! Just a short drive within the park area is entertainment such as miniature golf and go karts for a price. Both offered great fun as I was there with other adults. Definitely would return next time if Im ever in Aberdeen, SD.

Lets face it. We are hundreds of miles away from any major attraction. However, what Wylie Park has to offer will paint your photo album nicely. With several outing venues to choose from, you dont have to experience it all in one trip. In fact, its better if you visit more than once. The atmosphere is filled with joy. The setting is rustic and the ambiance can be similar to being at a fair as the summer draws to a close. Do come! Do bring family! Do enjoy!

My dreams of seeing bison on our NW mostly off grid camping trip were diminishing during Covid as were getting set to start heading east and south back into Houston, until we found Wiley Park and campground! Great bicycling/ walking trails, awesome little zoo, super well manicured grounds. The campground has cabin rentals, RV sites are by reservation but they also keep several pull thru sites available on a first come first serve basis which is great when you dont know when or where youll be stopping

The coolest park in a 200 mile radius. Something for everyone - especially the kiddos. I highly recommend.

Its a fun little place. The go karts are always a joy. The trampoline set, lazer maze, and bumper boats make it a nice place for an event. The lake is a bit.. dirty? I guess it makes sense since its a lake but Ive seen lakes with clearer water. Nevertheless, its still a fun place to swim and hang around.

Quiet campground while we were there. Stayed in a medium cabin, too small for a family of 6, in our opinion. As we were outside there were no mosquitoes that we noticed. There was also plenty of shade. Theres a new jungle gym that the kiddos loved! Staff was very friendly.

Cool place to take young children. Park wasnt open yet as far as attractions or rides, but still worth the visit. Great exercise too!

Review №13

Hours of fun. Wasnt to busy while we were there so was very enjoyable as a family especially since the kids did very little standing in line for the go cars!. The goose poo along the beach made it kind of icky but swimming was free and fun for all ages. The bikes were fun, the mini golf was neat and well kept and fun for the while family. Lots to do with the family or as a larger group!

Beautiful grounds that is well kept! We love to have picnics here. Sometimes we rent one of the many picnic shelters if we have a big family gathering. Most of the time though, we can find a small shelter to eat at. There are several playground areas the kids can play at. It is a beautiful place to go on a walk or bike ride at too. I have even fished or swam at the lake there. You can rent all sorts of things for reasonable prices: paddleboats, canoes, tandem bikes, bikes that are low to the ground, and more. There are volleyball pits and Storybook Land and Thunderoad are right there too. Its a popular place to camp, but I have never camped there.

I went to college in Aberdeen and visited Wylie Park on several occasions. Revisited it this past summer, and it has made numerous improvements. They now have a water park, animals, a wonderful paved walking path, and plenty of parking. There is a small lake with nice beach as well. The campground is still one of my favorites!!!!

Review №46

So much fun and so much to do! We went on the go carts, bumpwr boats, and the eurojump trampolines then rented a 4 person bike for an hour. It was a blast and the bike rentals are very reasonable and you can ride all over the park for the most part with the exception of inside the Storyland Park. On the weekend you can rent canoes and paddleboats for the lake and swimming area. We also spent some time at Storybook Land. They have 4 rides which you have to pay for, but the park is free to get into which is awesome. The yellow brick road is so cute too follow they the forest to the talking trees and eventually to the witch! Very cute and clean! Also fun to see the small zoo and the petting zoo inside!
