This is a real carousel with horses that are locally carved. They have BIG horses that even adults can ride and very reasonable prices. This carousel is kept up really well. They have an onsite gift shop and a wonderful playground next door for the children called Dragon Hollow. Both the carousel and the playground are part of the Missoula park sytem and sit on the edge of the Clarkfork river in downtown.
PROS: Reasonable prices, kid & adult friendly, safety conscious
CONS: Parking is sometimes hard to find
