| - Had a great time here with our two kindergarten age kids. I was wary of taking the family due to some of the bad reviews of this place, but I figured we had to try for ourselves. We had a great experience. Be sure to check their online calendar to be sure the Rides Section is open during your visit, especially on weekdays. During slower hours only the mini-golf and arcade are open.
We went on an early Friday afternoon, a perfect time since the rides were opening up and there wasn't a huge crowd. Minimal waiting for most rides except the go-karts. We got the Gold tickets with unlimited rides, a round of golf, and $10 in arcade money. It was just an awesome family outing. The kids were tall enough to ride just about everything and loved the rides. The two coasters were better than expected. Granted, they're not Six-flags rides, but they're not dinky carnival coasters either. The arcade was two stories of fun with old school games, games for younger kids, and all the newer games too. It's all on an e-card system which we liked better than carrying around a bunch of game tickets. They swipe your card at the prize counter and tell you your ticket amount. I do agree with the other reviewers about the arcade not being wheelchair friendly. It would be wonderful if they could renovate and accommodate everyone.
The mini-golf is a hidden gem. It was probably the best mini-golf course I've ever played on. The 4 courses are maintained very well and so whimsical and interesting to look at. They cross paths so you really have to watch the sign colors to be sure you're staying on your course. We got mixed up a couple of times, but it's not a big deal.
We didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. Water was $1.50 a bottle, which I actually thought was okay considering how much they charge for water at most theme parks or festivals.
Overall, an awesome experience. No 'scary' people as mentioned in other reviews, at least when we went. The staff (mainly teenagers) were all nice enough. Rides, mini-golf, and arcade were fun. We'll be back.
