We loved visiting Hartley's and were thankful we could enjoy it over the span of three days! The second crock attack show we saw was completely different than the first. Same for the lagoon boat ride! ALL of the employees genuinely seemed happy and helpful. Plus lots had good humor to keep it fun and interesting during the shows and boat tour. SO grateful we came to Hartley's. It was a highlight during our trip!
