    We love wildlife and thought this would be an interesting way to spend a couple hours. The guides were energetic and passionate about the wolves and did a great job of telling the story of Wolf Hollow as well as the truth (and misinformation) about the history of wolves. The wolves were beautiful and playful, when they weren't lounging in the shade. The tales of their unfortunate reputation along with getting to see them up close and hear about each one's distinct personalities was a worthwhile experience that generated even more awe and respect for the animals. My only complaint was that it was a very hot day and the presentation was about 2 hours long and sitting for so long listening to someone talk was making a lot of the kids antsy but most of them seemed to really enjoyed the question and answers with the guides. Overall it was family friendly, informative and definitely worth checking it out for a good cause.

    The Adventure of these Magnificent animals is hard to convey, but all you need to do is look into their eyes and you see beauty. The attraction and explanation of the wolves is told by the caretaker in a way that you understand the passion and hierarchy these animals have have for each other and the lessons people could learn and live by if THEY followed these same rules. The Human person believes in myths that misrepresent the wolves, and simply stated, most are truly wrong. The general populace and their lack of knowledge about these "laws of the "pack'" leads to the destruction of these animals. Just to state a comparison of how they are endangered, there are 5,000 wolves in all the USA but 10,000 coyotes just in Massachusetts. Wolves are truly natures pinnacle of animal survival and protection. I suggest to you this knowledge about the wolves is not a secret, just go to "Bartletts Ale House" in Abington, and they have a preserved wolf behind glass, with a plaque with the same message I am presenting to you now. Let's keep these animals on the endangered species list, and let Wolf's Hollow be only the beginning of the emancipation of the magnificent animals.

    We've done both the private photo sessionand the general tour and cant wait to go back. The wolves are stunning and loved the gift shop too!

    As an animal rights advocate,I never paid much attention to the plight of wolves in this country. Wolf Hollow changes my attitude. This sanctuary takes one to a close distance to an animal that is on the brink of extinction and wolves have done nothing to warrant their extinction. The lecture given to guests reminds one to respect these creatures who desperately need to be preserved,they are a vital part of the life cycle in nature,others animals will perish as well if they are gone. Wolf Hollow has a marvelous gift shop full of wonderful items that are educational. I bought pics of some of the wolves which sit proudly in my livingroom.The visit at Wolf Hollow is about an hour and a half. Children will love to howl with the wolves at the end of the presentation. Wolf Hollow is open only on Sundays beginning in December and is open weather permitting.mother wolfprotects her cubsbut man hasother plansshe howlsas her hopeof survival diminishessome seek topreserve thiswild caninewho is nature'sbeautythe spirit ofthe woodscalls a newattitude and lifetowards this majestic wolf

    Beautiful wolves, very educational, gorgeous rustic setting near Crane's Beach and Russell Orchards and Cranes Castle. Visit! You will not be disappointed with the knowledge of the staff/owners and the beauty of the wolves and the outdoors.

    I would recommend this place for about an hour of educating yourself and children about wolves. Its something different to do and connects kids with nature. The wolves are beautiful and well cared for.

    It was great - much better than we expected. Our 7 year old grandson is into wolves so we took him for his birthday. He loved it and he adopted Linnea a two year old pup. The show was very informative and my husband and I found it extremely interesting. The fellow who did the presentation was excellent and really interacted with the audience and encouraged participation. I would recommend this place to all.

    We visited Wolf Hollow because my nine-year-old daughter likes wolves and really wanted to see them up close. It did not disappoint- the presentation was excellent and we got a close look at the wolves and their behaviour. The people who run it are very passionate about what they do and saving the wolf population. The seating is bleacher-style so it's easy for everyone to see. There is a nice little gift shop too where we bought some stuffed wolves. I didn't give it five stars because the only restroom is a porta-potty, which, according to my husband was "really gross." We drove to a seafood restaurant down the street in Essex where we had lunch and used the restroom. My advice would be use the bathroom before you leave, and plan to stop somewhere afterwards if you think you'll need a bathroom later.

    We took three generations to Wolf Hollow on Father's Day. What would have been useful to know before hand is that the ONE hour presentation is the only thing there. After the presentation you can walk around the area (small), but really you have to go to the presentation. My kids (ages 7 and 11) were able to sit for the whole thing, and the person speaking was a middle school teacher and was able to keep our attention. However, sitting on a wooden bench for an hour was not comfortable (although it was better than standing for an hour). I learned alot as did the children. More information on the website would be helpful. For instance, I thought it would be set up as a zoo, so we could spend some time walking around. The parking lot is gated and did not open until 30 minutes before the show, and there is NO sign that you can't park on the street. If you ask, they will tell you to move the car into the lot, but a sign would be helpful.I thought it was great educational wise, but I would not be able to spend the day there.

    Wolf Hollow does weekend presentations about wolves, of an hour's length for individual visitors and families, starting 1.30 pm. It is about an hour's drive from Boston. We went on a hot day, about 90 degrees, and the wolves didn't like that very much. Still, it was worth while. The staff gave an informative lecture and the wolves cooperated within limits, minus the howl. No howl at this temperature. It was suggested that winter might be a good season to visit. The current population at the Hollow has a female chief, Nina, who shows the rest of the pack who is who. The rest of the pack would include the attendants, who are tolerated but not cuddled. If you have kids with an interest in wildlife, and don't live too far away, go. Unless you prefer to shoot at wolves from helicopters.

    We was very looking forward to check out at wolves & learn more history about wolves but we felt pretty bummer because we both are deaf and we had no idea what was all about from one hour of presentation. It would be nice if they have already printed papers so we can read & understand more about the wolves better. More activities and visions, not just sit down and listen to the presentation.

    I finally went this Sunday to Wolf Hollow. I really enjoyed it and would encourage young and old to try it. The pack had recently lost the alpha male and was interesting to see the new dynamics of the younger males who may become alpha. The caretakers were extremely knowledgable and entertaining for all. They have deep affection and healthy respect for these predators. I would go back for the more private photo sessions in the future.

    Great couple of hours with my teenage kids. We'd seen this place a dozen times, but it was always closed. Book ahead - I think they only open over the weekend for a few hours. The volunteer 'guides' bring the life of a pack into real perspective and you're only feet away (behind a fence) from the animals. Despite what you think you know about wolves, be prepared to have that all turned upside down. We were all moved, this place is well worth the trip.

    This is a super cool place to go and when I was young, we "adopted" (sponsored) the alpha wolf. Unfortunately, there was a coup mere weeks later and he was killed (we were informed, did not witness of course). It was a great learning experience, mutiny and all!

    I visited Wolf Hollow more than a year ago. It was a great experience. I've loved wolves my whole life. To be able to get up close to observe them and hear a pack howl was amazing and worth the trip. Note, not an all day event, so plan to do other things in the area.
