| - If you're looking for a fun night away from your backyard where you spend your evenings lighting money on fire, this is it. But if you don't enjoy wasting your hard-earned dough, skip it. I came with my sister and bro-in-law and their 3-year-old son. We all bought Groupons. I had a discount code, but I believe it was $16 per person. Kids under 2 are free; any kiddo older than that pays adult admission. I didn't realize that price only includes admission. Similar to a county or state fair, you must buy tickets for all the rides, which are $1 each. You save the more you buy, but the best deal was 25 tickets for $20.
Each ride or activity was 3-9 tickets each. In hindsight, we didn't need to buy that many tickets, because my nephew was content to run around one small bounce house for the entire time! And that's really all it was, several bounce houses and inflatable slides spread out over a muddy gravel lot.
I was surprised they had a bar and a 16 oz. beer was only $6. That's not cheap, but considering it was $10 for a s'more you have to make yourself, that seems like a decent deal. Everything was expensive. Kids could get pictures with Ana and Elsa or Santa, but they wouldn't allow you to take pictures of your own; you had to buy theirs. Huge ripoff and disappointment.
If you are looking for a similar-type activity, make the trip to the Marana Pumpkin Patch/Post Farms for Christmas on the Farm. Much better family outing and it costs a lot less.
