About

Explore over 1.5 miles of trails in a 60-acre dinosaur-themed park, filled with over 40 life-sized dinosaurs and New England's LARGEST Splashpad!

Story

Although it’s been more than 66 million years since dinosaurs roamed the earth, The Dinosaur Place™ at Nature's Art Village is home to over 40 life-sized dinosaurs situated in a pristine, picturesque, 60 acre woodland setting.
Stroll through over 1.5 miles of dinosaur trails wrapping around a scenic lake. Access the trails by walking under the belly of a life-sized brachiosaurus, an immense creature that measures 75 feet long and 40 feet tall! Enjoy the state-of-the-art playground featuring the one-of-a-kind SpaceNet, designed exclusively for The Dinosaur Place™. Get lost in a"MAZE"asaurus where families can play together to find their way out sliding down the mouth of a giant T-rex.

NEW THIS SEASON… See dinosaurs come to life with a NEW Animatronic Dinosaur Encounter. He moves, he roars, and more!

During the summer, bring along your bathing suit and get wet in New England’s largest SplashPad® where dinosaur-themed water features delight kids and adults of all ages. Enjoy a variety of picnic areas, find tasty treats at Monty’s Munchies or enjoy an ice cream at the Ice Cream Shop.

While at Nature’s Art Village, make sure to explore indoors and enjoy an adventured-filled, hands-on activity center, Discovery Depot! There you can dig for gems in Jackpot Mine, pan for "gold" in Thunder Creek, and uncover a dinosaur fossil with Dr. Bonez as a junior paleontologist in the Bone Zone. Best of all, everything you find you get to keep!

Visit The SHOPS at Nature's Art Village for artistic jewelry, gifts, toys, beads, minerals, fossils and more.

Such a wide variety of beads! This is my go-to place for gem and mineral beads where I get to hand pick the stones that go into my art. The prices are reasonable (I get a lot of chip beads, and always check what’s on clearance) and their staff is very helpful. Definitely get a punch card if you’re an avid beader, 15% off after 10 punches (save this for your big haul!) While you're there for the beads (or with the kiddos), check out the mineral room! Incredible specimens of a variety of gems, fossils, and more. View for free, but many of them have price tags so you can take home your favorite for the right price.

I found this place to be very pleasant and very clean thruout. Some might say the food is expensive, but certainly no more than any other tourist attraction. Same goes for the quality of food. If you seek fine dining, perhaps a Dino Park isn't the place to go. Others complain admission is to expensive. I disagree, when I take into account the amount of land required and maintained. Overall, you can easily get 3 or more hours of entrainment for your kids, which by the way, is exactly what's this place is geared to. Dinosaurs, splash park, playground, bounce house, picnic area, more than enough provisions to drain your young ones of their energy for a few good hours!

Adult pays $20 to bring a kid for $20 for a cute place with dinosaurs. Be sure to bring socks and water shoes, otherwise you aren't able to use the two main attractions. The store of course will sell you overpriced low quality socks and water shoes for an additional cost. A few playscapes, a maze, a water pad and a well groomed trail with a few cool dinosaur statues. The food place was closed. Nothing for adults or older children. It is a nice place, but we will never return. I would recommend against this place. There are other alternatives with more for less.

Nicely setup park with as lot of dinosaur life size sculptures. Trails around lake well kept. The dinosaurs static. If they were animated would definitely increased value pod this park Park is closing early, give yourself at least 2 to 3 hours

Not a bad place but waaayyyy to over priced! Nothing to really do for adults and a family of 5 is over $100.. it's basically an overpriced playground with a few dinosaur exhibits. Adults should not be charged to get in and if so definately should be charged a much lower rate
