I bring my kids here when I'm looking for a less crowded place to burn energy. There's plenty of room to lay out. Plenty of seating, tables, and benches. There's a play area for the younger ones and a nicely sized climbing structure/slide for the bigs. They have a dual swing that you can't find at too many other playgrounds. The only problem at this park might be parking. I highly recommend this lowkey park.

I love Zoos and will always have a bias towards the positive. I enjoyed this zoo but perhaps not as…read moremuch as others. We paid for the polar bear experience which was a bit cooler than the average experience but just not as awesome as I hoped. Some cool other animals to see but overall just not that impressive. Also spending $40+ on a shirt at the gift shop was a bit much. But I'm still glad that I could say I visited here.

Oh where to begin.... I would like to preface this by saying any community members who ask…read morequestions about the most recent incident have been immediately blocked by the zoo. that is enough of a red flag but i shall explain more ref flags. there have been many instances of aggression from one animal towards the next and with warning signs that have been repeatedly ignored. Most of the aggression is with the bears unfortunately. We have all heard about the most recent event, where a very small, blind, and deaf female bear was placed into the enclosure with a much larger boar (male bear) during peak mating season. that was reckless and resulted in a bear fight, the boar ripping the females skin off of her back, and it took over 30 minutes for the staff to even get to the scene and begin to assess the situation. 30 minutes. the zoo is small why did it take thirty. minutes. mind you, the warning signs hours leading up to the event were noticed by the visitors for the bears unusually closed off and defensive behavior... but the staff didn't care. (picture included) The smaller bear, btw. was never around any other bears... so why the h.. would they throw the small solo non socialized bear with a huge male bear in peak mating season??? COME TF ON NOW DUDE. what an absolutely embarrassing and disgraceful way to represent our beautiful state. common sense says that's a bad idea, but whoever was in charge of the placement shares a brain cell with a rock. NEXT. in 2022 there was a polar bear and another species, i believe a grizzly, housed together. why would you put different species of bears together? especially the 2 most aggressive species.... they also got into a fight before separation. One bear had a pretty messed up bloody jaw and there was no closure to their habitat. The staff allowed their habitat to remain open despite the animals need for "peace and quiet" as well as no regards to the families and young children who came by seeing the poor bear (picture inserted below) NEXT. There were 2 more bears that were constantly on edge constantly fighting. it took MULTIPLE incidents for them to finally separate the bears for good. I could continue with more and more they've done (or didn't do) but i think we get the point. the zoo is a sad excuse for a zoo. they're volunteer based and not part of the AZA and clearly aren't trained properly and have no real knowledge on how to read wildlife behavior and have no intention on maintaining a SAFE and FRIENDLY environment, just money hungry individ

Service is good, they're friendly. Prices are pretty normal I think for a coffee shop. For kids the play is hit or miss. Sometimes there's big kids who get into the infant area, sometimes the kids are overly aggressive and parents don't supervise their children. But this time was good, no bullies to my daughter, she got to drive the little bus and play construction. I do like it here but when there's a party going on it's a bit much and easily feels over crowded

I think we spent maybe 30 minutes playing the 18 holes with two people. I like the theming of the golf areas, one underwater and one arctic. The holes were kind of simple, but a few had cool things sprinkled in. Maybe 4 total had something cool. It was $9 for 18 holes, each person. No 3D glasses were offered but don't really need them.

All of the kids were miserable cause they were freezing we all had to wear our full winter gear inside. It's so dark in the "party room". 9/10 of the arcade games did not work. Definitely not worth the money. $200 to rent the "room" and then $20 per person/ kid on top of that to golf. It was just pathetic to be completely honest. They are many other places to host bday part events that are well worth the money and price. I wouldn't recommend this or do it again.

The Play Palace sits in the nearly dilapidated midtown strip mall. They are nearest REI, right next to Kawaii Nails. It's a basic set up. There's a table/chair area with most of the space dedicated to the play area. They are obviously just getting started but they have all the right elements to thrive. The Play Palace staff are welcoming, cleanliness is prioritized, costs are affordable, and the kids seem to enjoy themselves. We will continue to support, in hopes it'll continue to improve. It would be nice if they rotated equipment in the way First Cup Playhouse does, every so often.
