I remember when I first drove by and saw these dinosaurs from the road over twenty five years ago I couldnt believe my eyes. I drove back to the street theyre on and there were a lot of them back then in much better condition than they are now. Some of them still looked large from the main road. The years have unfortunately taken its toll but it is still fun to drive by now and then to see them.

It was pretty cool. Most of the dinasours are falling apart. The ones in the ground look like real fossils. I enjoyed it.

A bit sad that most of them are broken, but the brokenness was actually the cool part too (for someone who likes ruins, abandoned places etc). Surprised to see it in the middle of a quiet residential area :)

This review is current as of July 2020 unfortunately most of the dinosaurs are deteriorating very badly and there are very few still standing but if you are interested in taking some cool pictures and checking them out you should do so right away before there is nothing left to see. For those of you who dont know theyre used to be over thirty standing dinosaurs and it was supposed to be a golf course but the Creator ran out of funds and it has been deteriorating since the 1970s. Just a cool little place to stop n appreciate someones dream.

They are neat to go see. It has deteriorated a lot. This is on private property but unused, so be respectful.

It took me a couple of months to visit this site after friends who know Im always interested in exploring told me about the dinosaurs. Im glad I did, its unique and I wish I had a solid history for this site. It seems to me that way back when, the property owner, was trying to build a dinosaur inspired miniature golf course. Ill wager the city or county got on him over permit issues or such and either shut him down or pushed him out and, he just walked away. A lot of work went into what was created and its a shame that it exist today as is. Neglected, abandoned and vandalized. Ill update this post if and when I learn more.

Unique, interesting, and a little sad. These statues and structures were built by hand and had they been taken care of the place would be really fun to visit. All of the statues are either crumbled and broken or on their way. We figured out it was supposed to have been a putt putt course, not sure if it ever was. Still, it was in an odd place, and had a different vibe. If you like weird, check it out.. just be respectful.

It would be so cool if it wasnt pretty much destroyed. They fenced it off but it doesnt look like it helped much

Destroyed. Dont waste your time.

I grew up next door to these dinosaurs,I remember mr. Kaufman building them..had fun as a little kid running around on those trails,just wish you couldve seen it back in the day

Good place to explore in Apple Valley California.

Was pretty cool. Like a lot of people say most all of them are damaged. My autistic son loves dinos. But had a good time looking. There is a lot of broken glass. Would be cool if someone would fix them it would draw more people back. Great for kids

Worth checking. Out for quick fun for kids. All damage. Now. Interesting. History if you. Read up on place. If. You were in 1983-1986. Blast. Of time

Disappointed that the artwork has been vandalized. Wonder what it would have looked like decades ago.

Awesome little oddity!

Cool to see, too bad it never opened up as a miniature golf place. It looks like a lot of work went into this. Cool place to visit. Be respectful of the neighbors if you go by there. Thanks.

Very interesting abandoned spot

WOW! What a fun place. My family and I recently visited the Worlds Biggest Dinosaurs and had a GREAT time in their new museum and park! The kids loved the robotic dinosaurs in the museum. They even got to ride on two of them! They have a great fossil cave at the entrance of the museum. We all had fun at the gemstone panning. We found some gemstones and interesting rocks. Our kids also had a good time at the dino dig where they found the marked quartz rock and won a dinosaur prize. The short walk along the dinosaur exhibition trail to hike up into the T-Rex was cool. I really think everyone would enjoy seeing the dinosaurs, museum, and park. Its fun and affordable

Cool little display

Sad to say they are crumbling down.The man who built them had so much fun.Bet he never thought they wouldnt last:(

Pretty cool place, the kids loved it! All of the dinosaurs were broken to some point. Some much worse than others. I think it would be cool to get the current owners permission to paint them.

This is not a tourist attraction. Looks like someones abandoned backyard art project.In is rual neighborhood, not worth the detour.

Crazy cool old dinosaur park

Nice place

Came by here many years ago with my grandsons and the dinosaurs were starting to fall apart then but you could see that it was meant to be something quite unique. My grandsons and I returned recently and the dinosaurs are even more in shambles now so it is even sadder to see. You are able to drive around to see them but there is a fence around the property so you cant walk around them anymore.

My girls love it.

The trip made a bit out of the way thru scenic Apple Valley, only to be shunned away by the private property/no trespassing signs awhile teasing you by throwing all the busted up Dinos behind someones backyard. These had the potential to be a cool quirky road side stop, but whomever owns the property clearly doesnt want you hanging around, but not doing a good job of hiding it to keep the inquisitive from trampling into your backyard. Might as well mark this closed.

Beautiful amd odd place right by home.Unfortunutly over the years it has gotten run down.Be careful not to enter private property.

Most are in need of great repair,. Interesting. Sad. Someone built a wonderful attraction.

Wish it was up and running again

Cool but run down. All the dinosaurs are damaged

My daughters backyard. Ive known about this place since 1974.

Fun

Could be rebuilt.

Rawr XD
