Love this place...went on field trips when I worked at a daycare from ages 5-12 they loved it we are going to plan our daughters 4th birthday here we can't wait!!!!
My daughters daycare went here for a field trip this summer and if she was a little older I'm sure she would have loved it. I really think this place is for children who really understand how to play the games and who would really enjoy riding the go karts.
In the summer i take my 4 kids to Haunted Trails to go miniature golfing. Its a scary haunted theme so the kids like looking at the little haunted houses & swamp monster in the golfing area. Afterwards we use the coupon on the back of the score card to get the buy one get one free go kart rides. My little ones love it because they can ride with us as we race eachother. In the winter we enjot the arcades & indoor rides. Its a nice place to go to when you want to take your kids somewhere and you dont know where to go.
