Was really impressed with the new location. My grands enjoyed interacting with the animals including Kangaroos, birds, porcupine, rabbits and more. Great open space, firetruck and structures to play on.

We were recommended to visit Kangaroo Creek by a hotel receptionist when she learnt we were going to visit Kelowna and we are very glad that we did. We loved being able to feed and touch the kangaroos, wallabies and wallaroos. The staff were extremely knowledge and volunteered information and it is clear that they are proud of the work that they are doing.
The on-site food was also very good.
Highly recommended to visit even if you don't have children with you!

This is such a fun spot in Kelowna! There are a lot of cute kangeroos to pet and hang out with along with some goats, pigs, bunnys, and capybaras. A decent amount of animals to see and pet, they even have a porcupine. Definitely worth checking out and visiting especially if you're a fan of kangeroos or animals in general!

What a fun place. We met kangaroos, wallabys, emus, turtles, snakes, parrots, sugar gliders, capybaras, goats, pigs, bunnies, and even fed a porcupine. It would be a great place to take your kids too.

Small farm but so worth the visit. When else are you going to see kangaroos and pet them unless you travel to Australia…

Came here with the family as it was recommended by Tripadvisor and we were not disappointed. My daughter really enjoyed all the animals - in particular the wallabies and kangaroos which you got to feed. Apart from the Kangaroos, there are lots of other animals walking around in the open such as emus, turkeys, porcupine, goats, and pigs . The reptile show was fun and so was the bird aviary next to it.

Came here with the family because it was recommended by a lot of our friends. My family really enjoyed all the animals - in particular the wallabies and bunnies which you got to feed. There are lots of other animals to see like emus, turkeys, pigs, goats. It was good to come. They're machine was busted so had to pay cash which was annoying as we don't usually carry a lot of cash. Family had a good time.

Does the farm have covered areas so that we can still visit if the weather is bad?

What do you do with the kangaroos as they get older?...or at the end of the tourist season?

We asked about the winter and the farm has large heated barns but the kangaroos have in/out access and can often be found playing in the snow.
Is there seating for people with disabilities? I am not a robot.

Yes, there were many benches for persons with disabilities. There is also shade. I do not think you would find it difficult at all. Handicap Parking isn't a problem either.

How much time should we plan for the visit? How long does it take to walk through the farm and see the animals?

I would say 90 minutes but you could spend less than an hour if you were in a hurry.

Thank you for reply, but I might not asked clearly - my interest is when the kangaroos are born and when I can enjoy the babies on my lap, feeding with bottle? ..., June or July? Thanks!

Oh, sorry about that, I misunderstood. We have joeys available for the public to hold most of the time. At present we have 6 joeys and several more that are about to emerge from the pouch. We will certainly have joeys through the summer season that can be held in visitors laps. We no longer allow visitors to feed the joeys from a bottle. This is now done only by staff.

When it is best time to come to see, cradle and feed baby kangaroos, please? I'd love to have such an experience. Thank you!

That's a great question! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to tell our guests that some times are better to visit than others. Try to visit off-peak days and hours. Our peak season is in July and August. It's always VERY busy, especially on the weekends and especially on holidays. Your best bet, for a relaxed visit is to come during the week outside of July and August. If you must come during peak season, try and get here at opening time. In July and August that's 9 a.m. We even let adults in for half price for that first hour of the day. As the day goes on, it just gets busier and busier. An alternative to coming first thing in July and August is to come during the evening. That runs from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. This is also much more relaxed and cooler too. We will also have the Okanagan Reptile Refuge in to give a presentation that is free to our visitors in the evening.

I would like to know if this is one of the attractions that trip advisor will no longer have on its site since announcing they will no longer sell tickets to animal attractions that promote animal cruelty.

I would hope not, as this farm/sanctuary has limited hours and a limited season specifically so the animals are not overburdened with human interaction.I visited there 2 weeks ago and thought it was a very well run place. It's not even close to being in the category of a circus or large aquarium. Just my thoughts...

Are you allowed to feeg the animals?
Do you sell snack packs for feeding the animals or should a person bring their own, if so what should you bring.
Kim B

The staff walk around with buckets of food and give it to you, free, to feed the animals.
Do you know where to buy sugar gliders?
car0greg
Kelowna, Canada7 contributions
Sorry, I cannot recommend any particular source and do not know of anyone selling gliders at this time. Please do your research carefully before buying a glider and make sure that the person you are buying from is responsible and knowledgeable.
Do you practice ethical ways of caring for these animals? I know when visiting Thailand friends of mine discovered that the Tigers they could pet and cuddle with were doped on opium - please tell me this, or anything like this, is not the case here?

No, we don't drug our animals unless it's a therapeutic drug of some kind (antibiotics if they are ill for instance.) Plus it's not really legal for anyone to just go around administering restricted drugs to anything, human or animal, unless they are a professional, with a license. People have commented on how relaxed our animals are. But they are just that....relaxed.
