I never pass up a chocolate shop and Cocoa Safari is adorable. It's small but is well laid out and has plenty to chose from. We couldn't decide so went with dark chocolate malted milk balls, chocolate covered almonds, coconut clusters and a few other items. Luckily we had done plenty of walking around town 1st. Staff were very helpful. Stop in!
![cocoa safari madison indiana](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/26S3lVG-Z4GE51izWHrNWA/348s.jpg)
Lots of chocolate options. Some items pre-packaged but you can pick and choose as the case confectionaries are by the pound.

Another great local spot right in the heart of Madison. It's a small shop, but they have a lot of different chocolates to try! We bought a bag of malt balls + a chocolate pop - both were fantastic! And the size of those malt balls were no joke!! The staff in the shop were very friendly and helpful, and there were so many unique treats that it was hard to choose which one I wanted... Guess I'll have to come back for more ;)

Cocoa Safari Chocolates was such a fun find during my recent day trip to Madison. My friend who lives in Madison recommended it, and I'm so happy she did. This shop has so many sweet treats, like giant s'mores, truffles, bark, buckeyes and more. I'm still kicking myself for not buying some of the baby turtles or chocolate-dipped peanut butter Ritz crackers. All sound amazing. One of the employees told us that they make all of their chocolate treats in-house, which is very impressive. I did buy some black licorice for my step dad for Father's Day. (Yep, my stepdad is the one person who likes this stuff.) Cocoa Safari is such a great spot when exploring downtown Madison. A must-visit!

Solid chocolate, affordable prices with a nice atmosphere. The girls behind the counter were very helpful, great spot.

After reading some of the reviews, I guess people have wide expectations for what makes a good chocolate. I am not sure if things have changed over the 10 years this independent chocolate shop has been open, but I loved everything I purchased! First, note that all the chocolates are made in the back room. No importing from some large chocolate company is done here. Everything is made in small batches for freshness. I like that too! When I walked in, I was greeted and was able to move around easily in the lobby area outside the display counter of individual chocolates and the wall of packaged chocolates. I can't tell you how many chocolate shops I have had unfriendly staff, so I really appreciated being welcomed here. I noticed some small bags that I picked out. One was a dark chocolate pretzel bag. Another was a milk chocolate covered almond bag. They also carried a bag of mixed nuts (salted) that I grabbed as well. Note: I haven't tried any of their hand dipped individual chocolates yet, but I plan on doing that the next time I visit Madison. I was served right away and was soon on my way enjoying some of my purchases. Review #3401

I decided to seek out Cocoa Safari after a friend, who is a fellow Yelper and chocoholic, gave me a heads up. On a chilly Saturday, a steamy cup of hot chocolate seemed like the perfect treat while window shopping down Main Street. The address listed on Yelp is either old or another location (I'm guessing old) as I found Cocoa Safari on Main near The Red Roaster. The shop is dominated by a candy counter on one side and shelving chocked full of baggies on the other. You can pick up anything and everything chocolate covered from almonds to gummi bears. The counter showcases amazing and decadent treats including giant s'mores, chocolate-dipped cookies, and truffles. I ordered my hot chocolate, but couldn't resist also taking a huge turtle home with me. The confection was so large, palm-sized, that it should have been considered a tortoise. The rich and creamy, hot chocolate was topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. At $3.95, the cost was on par with coffee shops, but the quality was much better. The turtle, like e other candies, were priced by weight. It was well worth the $5 as the chewy caramel perfectly complimented the milk chocolate and crunchy pecans. I'll definitely stop in again on my next trip to Madison!

Nice chocolate shop in the heart of Main Street Madison. Friendly service and the treats are hand made on site. You can purchase pre-packaged items at a reasonable price for such quality. There is also a nice display case of choices. We opted for pre-packaged milk chocolate covered gummy bears and dark chocolate covered espresso beans. Haven't had either yet. But we did eat our massive "tortoise" (big soft gooey caramel with whole pecans and chocolate) and hand dipped s'more. I bought both in milk chocolate and they were so good. The chocolate melts in your mouth, not waxy at all! The s'more had 2 milk chocolate covered grahams and sandwiched between was a white chocolate covered HOMEMADE vanilla marshmallow that was so soft and fresh. We got the last s'more today! They must make small batches because there were limited quantities- however, you know what you are getting is fresh. Will definitely stop back in when we come back to Madison!

While doing my research on Madison, I kept coming across Cocoa Safari. So Cocoa Safari earned a firm spot on my list of places to visit while in town. The store is somewhat small and very cute. I loved how consistent the safari theme was throughout the store. There was a wide variety of different chocolates and truffles for sale. I must admit that it is a little on the pricey side though. I ended up getting a small bag of dark chocolate covered espresso beans, which was $3.99. I also got two crystallized Gingers dipped in dark chocolate and a milk chocolate covered tortoise. My total for all of this was about $10. All in all, this is a nice shop on Main Street in Madison! The staff was very friendly and all the chocolates were delicious.
![cocoa safari madison indiana](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/4KKpLCqFkc4KKCUWqijCUA/348s.jpg)
Wonderfully delectable chocolates that are always fresh. Nice variety to choose from and they even offer sugar free items.

This place is so good. I highly recommend the truffles! They are made there! Go early if you like dark chocolate!
Beautiful little store with incredibly delicious handmade chocolates! We were celebrating my husband's birthday, so I went a ... little overboard. We bought: chocolate covered espresso beans, malted milk balls, a jar of cinnamon honey spread, and a largeassortment of truffles and creams. I also choose three cold drinks from their cooler because it was a very warm day. The youngwoman who waited on me was not very talkative and didn't know how long the business has been there. She wasn't unkind, justrather quiet and focused on her work. Everything we purchased here was delicious, and we would happily return when we're next inthe area. Read more

My favorites have always been the Truffles and the Creams . At Cocoa Safari Chocolates, they had more than just a handful!
On the outside, Dark or Milk Chocolate topped Truffles with flavors on the inside that ranged from Raspberry to Mint to Espresso–as well as a varying list of seasonal Truffles like Pumpkin Pie or Lemon Chiffon. Wowza.

Overnight safari park opens in Madison

After moving to Georgia’s Lake Country 11 years ago, I read reports about a new safari park “coming soon” to Madison. Target opening seasons were announced but kept getting pushed back. Originally called the Georgia Zoo and Safari Park, the name was changed in 2016 to better align with a “mission-based programming to save wildlife and their natural habitats through conservation, education, connection and inspiration,” according to local press reports at the time. Now, after a decade of red tape, construction delays, a pandemic that caused a pause and a shift in plans with even more red tape and construction delays, the Georgia Safari Conservation Park is finally open.
The 530-acre property 60 miles east of Atlanta sits among gentle rolling hills in the woods and pastureland just south of I-20, its main entrance only a quarter-mile from exit 113. Currently, 286 acres are in use, 230 of them as pasture habitat where grassland animals reside behind a dual fence line inside a perimeter fence encircling the property.

The park had a soft opening June 1 and is permitted a limited number of visitors this month to ensure the animals have time to acclimate to their new surroundings before a wider opening later in July. Finishing touches were still being applied, mostly landscaping and road work around the parking areas and on a trail leading to the safari-style tents where overnight guests stay.
The Georgia Safari Conservation Park has the distinction of being the first overnight safari park in the state and the only one in the Southeast. One and two-bedroom tents represent glamping at its finest with air-conditioning, luxurious furnishings and linens, walk-in tiled showers, stand-alone soaker tubs, kitchenettes, dens, floor-to-ceiling windows and wraparound decks overlooking a private savanna not included on the daily safari tours. A one-bedroom suite inside the giraffe barn has large picture-frame windows with views of the giraffe habitat and a balcony overlooking the outside enclosures.
Standing on the deck of the safari tent after checking in, I was greeted by three curious ostriches who wandered up to the fence line. With the provided binoculars I spotted water bucks and watusis nearby, and two Southern white rhinoceros in the distance. The rhinos were in their own enclosed field relaxing under a sailcloth shade next to a giant mud hole they seemed to relish rolling around in. It was hard to tell their actual color since both were fully caked in Georgia red clay mud.
The rhinos were also visible from a closer standpoint on the daily guided safari tour, which is included with all overnight stays. This is the main wildlife experience offered by the park where guests are led through the grassland habitat in a covered open-air vehicle by an expert guide on a 90-minute tour.

During my tour I saw two newborns — a 2-day-old impala, and a 1-day-old American bison. Both babies were up and walking around, sticking close to their mothers. Other species seen on the tour were groupings of Asian water buffalo, common eland, roan, Grant’s zebra, bongo (a threatened species) and a single desert addax (a critically endangered species).
The tour group was led by animal care specialist and pasture lead Tiffany Portillo. She called every animal we saw by name and referred to them collectively as her “kiddos.”
The animals come from similar facilities around the U.S. Rhinos Mo-Joe and Akagera came from a park in Ohio and the 1.5-year-old reticulated giraffe named Phoenix arrived from a safari park in Texas. Portillo stressed that soil and water testing is done before any animal comes into their new home to make sure it’s a suitable habitat for them. There are no big cats yet, but they’re part of a longer-range plan requiring a new habitat with specialized high fencing.
Along with the guided safari tour, the park offers a private VIP tour for up to eight people that includes a hands-on encounter with exotic small creatures such as a fennec fox and a bearded dragon. A giraffe and rhino encounter providing an up-close experience with these large land mammals is also available.
No dining options currently exist inside the Georgia Safari Conservation Park — that’s coming later in a future phase along with the big cats. The closest place to eat that isn’t interstate exit chain fare is at the Farmview Market Café three miles away, south of exit 114. Farmview Market sells food sourced from local farms at a specialty grocery store and at its farmers’ market every Saturday between May and September. The café serves breakfast and lunch every day except Sunday. For other non-chain dining options head 3.5 miles in the other direction to the historic district of downtown Madison.
Madison has come a long way on the dining front in the last few years. A lot of that progress can be attributed to one man, Preston Snyder, and the company he founded, MAD Hospitality, which operates five food and beverage establishments within a block of each other around the town square.
Snyder relocated to Madison from Atlanta in 2018 to be closer to aging parents on Lake Oconee. A former managing partner at Braden Fellman, an Atlanta real estate development company, he fell in love with Madison’s historic vibe and started acquiring vacant properties. Sensing a need, he turned the properties into a French bakery (Patisserie on Main), an English-style pub (Hart & Crown Tavern), a coffeeshop/cocktail bar (The Sinclair), a diner (Betty Gene’s) and a chef-driven fine-dining restaurant (The Dining Room).

“I went back into the restaurant business,” said Snyder, whose first job as a young man was working as a server at the Dining Room in the old Ritz-Carlton Buckhead location during its Günter Seeger glory days. Atlanta patrons of a certain age may feel like they’ve walked through a time portal upon entering the Dining Room in Madison, its interior design an homage to the former Ritz-Carlton Dining Room of the late 1980s. Across the square, Betty Gene’s, named after Snyder’s mother, is an affordable breakfast and lunch spot that serves the best biscuit this side of Athens.
The latest of Snyder’s Madison ventures isn’t a restaurant but the 15-room New South Motor Inn, formerly called the Old South Motor Inn. Snyder purchased the dilapidated property and was amazed to find that the old sign out front still had its original neon from the mid-20th century. The restored neon now lights up the main highway between the interstate exit and the downtown historic district, serving as the gateway to Madison.
