Man oh man is this a tough review to write…read more First of all, I want to be clear, there is nothing else in the Northwest to even compare Silverwood to. So, with that regard, it is without question the best amusement park within several hundred miles in any direction. It also has a water park, which again, is kind of peerless for the area. So, if we're just comparing this to other amusement parks in the inland and Pacific Northwest, Silverwood gets five stars. However, when you compare it to other amusement parks in the country, and look at the actual experience itself, it does come up a little short. Now, don't get me wrong, it's still a great time, still a great place to spend a day or weekend with your family. The biggest problem with Silverwood is the running of the rides themselves. Not that the rides malfunction, but the staff members who are coordinating and operating the rides, could across the board do a better job. First of all, all of the lines move ridiculously slow. You will be waiting in line for an unreasonable amount of time, even on not busy days. Second, and I know the park is mostly staffed with high school students on summer break, but the staff members often don't seem like they know what they're doing. On my last visit to the park there were several instances of staff members being unclear about what we were doing. About how to get into the trams. About whether or not we could store our backpacks. Which, especially after waiting in line for too long, doesn't lead to a great experience. But, overall we all had fun and it was a really nice day.

The bowling alley is clean compared to most bowling alleys and they have lanes for super little kids. It's a fun way to spend the day, albeit very expensive. Cons: The arcade was a let down. I had the $7.50 arcade credit and most of the games I wanted to play were broken/not working. But able to take my money. The lady at the counter was helpful in refunding it but it was still annoying. We tried to play 2 player games but every time one of the games wasn't working so we had to do it separately which isn't as fun. Plus all the games are insanely expensive like $3-7 for maybe a 1-3 min game. We reloaded our wrist bands and it seemed all the games make it so you have to keep putting money on your wristband and can't quite play any game without doing that OR you just leave without using the full amount that you paid because there aren't any games that cost less than what's left on your wristband. Mini golf was alright All in all, it's a fun family place but some improvements could be made for sure!

One thing…read moreto note is that the gondola makes frequent stops along the way to load and unload passengers, which is pretty annoying, since it disrupts the flow and experience. In my opinion, it's not really worth the price. While the views are nice, they aren't significantly better than what you can see by simply walking along the park paths. Just save yourself the $15 and enjoy a short walk down the park path.

There was incomplete construction, wasted space, and the whole venue smelled like a stinky sock for what seemed like a decade. Now there's a new ownership which has really turned the place around. They cleaned, remodeled, painted, added big screen TVs and arcade gizmos, enlarged the rink, and continues to make improvements. There are still a lot of imperfections and I have complaints, but I will come back here again and again because I always have a good time skating with friends. Recently I've been there on adult night, Thursday. Thank goodness for this 18+ day, because I've skated here many times when there are a bunch of careless kids on the rink that appear to me only as hazards that I have to dodge constantly. The 90's nostalgia that Roller Valley had in the 2010's is mostly gone. The place feels newer and the soundtrack is almost always what the younger generation is into. Song requests are accepted and the result is a smorgasbord of music that I can't relate to. I think this is the reason why I see several skaters wearing noise cancelling earbuds, so they can jam to their preferred music while they roll. Staff is a mixed bag but I expect nothing more as the service industry in today's job market is kind of bonkers. Some staff appear longing to be anywhere else as they impatiently operate the credit card machine, while others rolling around on quad skates sport a cheery smile and happily greet patrons. I liked the food I tried. Gone are the sticky licorice ropes available during my childhood, present are some tasty breaded fries which came recommended. Just another sign that Roller Valley is moving forward and exists in the here and now. My biggest complaints with Roller Valley in 2022 are related to cleanliness and restroom privacy. I repeatedly smelled a moldy odor near the rink's entrance. Another frustration is the lack of urinal partitions in the men's restroom, as well as the extremely short toilet partition which I think I could see over if I were brave enough to sit down. TL;DR: Give Roller Valley a chance. The atmosphere here is relaxed and fun. Things are imperfect, just like us. Don't let that stop you from having good times and making memories.

The Looff Carousel (apparently also known as the Riverfront Park Carousel) should be a mandatory…read morestop on any visit to Spokane. It's located in the beautiful Riverfront Park area and is easy to find. It is a classic, old-school carousel that has been in operation since the early 20th century. That means it is completely mechanical and the speed of the ride is actually pretty fast in comparison to more modern electric versions. The horses, tigers, and seats are all the classic carousel design. Plus, the entire carousel is enclosed in a glass structure meaning it operates and can be ridden regardless of the weather outside. Hot, cold, rainy, snowy, doesn't matter. They also have added a unique "ring game" where you try and grab a small plastic ring as the carousel goes around and then throw it into a small target as you pass by. It was actually more fun than I thought it would be and pretty challenging. They have also implemented a pretty clever pay structure. The cost is somewhat reasonable for a couple rides, and they have a day pass for a bit more. We got there late so only rode it a couple times. But the kids loved it, and so did the bigger (adult) kids. Definitely worth a stop while exploring Riverfront Park!

There is a team member that stands on a platform and refills a mechanism that sticks out close to the carousel so that his arms linked to the carousel. At the end of the mechanism there is a ring that you need to grab. The carousel will spin around and on the other side there is a stand in which you can throw the ring into and try to get it within one of the holes. It was so much fun. Try new aim while stay on the carousel. The ride was very inexpensive for all four of us. There is a gift shop in the same building that you can buy Spokane gifts at and also get some goat food. IYKYK. The carousel sits next to a lake and is located near a tower. If you're in town stop by and try to get the rings into holes.
