The park is best known as the home of the iconic Butterfly World attraction, the first butterfly park of its kind in the Western Hemisphere. On select weekends, the park's Tradewinds and Atlantic Railroad attraction offers small-scale steam railroad rides, giving visitors of all ages a unique vantage point on the park's beautiful scenery. An 18-hole disc golf course is also offered, along with a freshwater fishing pier and a plethora of athletic fields available for day use. Other attractions include equestrian trails, children's pony rides, an educational farm museum, and rental-use picnic shelters and overnight camping tents. During the holiday season, the park hosts autumn hayrides and an annual drive-through Christmas light show spectacular.
