Mary Vagle Museum & Nature Center

My girlfriend and I took her granddaughter here. And all of us enjoyed ourselves. The staff was very friendly and caring about the people visiting the nature center.

I believe this is a very nice (and free) educational opportunity for the community!When I arrived, I believe there was a group of children that were attending a session where they could touch trained animals. This occurred in the main area. However, I could still walk around the area where I believe most of the animals were housed, which looked like it could also function as a classroom.For me, it is a bit of a drive. However, I think this is an excellent place for those in Fontana to visit!

The trail is so peaceful and naturistic. You see a lot of different plants and get to learn or be one with nature. Inside you get to learn about some history of our deserts. Also see live animals.

I love it my daughter loves seeing the flowers turtles and ducks there and inside the building they have cool reptiles and insects and kid activities for kids and they do have little showings for kids

This is a very nice trail educational area. Came here after hours not knowing what to expect heard great reviews from my 5 year old nephew. From my understanding when it's open they have snakes and lizards in cages to look at. Only drawback I had was the walking around the lake was half way around was a dirt trail and the other half cemented. Which makes it difficult if you have a baby in a stroller. There weren't too many benches for seating in the shade area on the cement side. Would come back with the older kids. Not a baby haha

A nice little hidden gem! Saw some ducks, butterflies, squirrels, birds, and a California desert tortoise named George! There is an abundance of trees and shade so it's quite enjoyable even in this heat. I did not go on the dirt hiking trails too much. For small kids, I'd recommend bringing a jogging stroller (as opposed to a regular stroller).I wish the museum opened earlier than noon. We ran into someone who said they bring out the animal around 1:30pm for the kids to see.All in all, a nice little park that I'd come back to visit again.

I have been to the park for a few years now and I got to say the new displays in the building are really awesome. I especially like when the water fountains are turned on it just really enjoy the outdoor space I'd like to see more of a butterfly exhibit in the future.I definitely recommend if you're looking to get some quiet time outdoors.

My wife and I took our wedding photos here. Loved the scenery. It was perfect the place to spend our wedding in nature

Nice, pleasant little park with a museum! Never been inside the museum but the park is full of ducks and swans(?....see the pics)! The park is clean and well maintained. No creeps hanging around and no homeless! Peaceful place to come to meditate or game lunch

My son went on a field trip here and he loved it. Asked to go back all the time. Seems affordable for a quick family outing
