So I have wanted to do a party here for years as my littles absolutely love inflatables and I have…read moreheard so may good reviews and recommendations at that time but then covid hit and it just hasn't worked out for us. Well this past week was my neices first birthday and we had the party set to take place here as it would be a great place for the kiddos to play out of the heat, everyone get a full belly and great spot for us all to get together. We had the 11 to 1 spot(the very first spot) well you would of thought this was their first time ever having a birthday party here, no one knew what we needed, we had to walk back and forth several times between the pizza ranch side and county fair side to figure out where to pay/get wrist bands and arcade cards(through the party package arranged) by time we were able to get in and get started we were already a good 15 to 20 min past our start time, but no big deal. (Mind you the party room was less than desirable with dirty floors, a bucket with water which appeared to have been due to a leaking ceiling at some point, and not a lot of room. The bounce area and arcade were also a big let down with many games not working, giant puddles of water from what appeared to be another leak in the bouncy area and just overall not clean) We let the kids bounce since we knew we were on a 2 hour time limit while we started eating lunch. The kids had a chance to eat but were antsy to play the arcade like kids are so we let them take a break to play for a bit before coming back to finish lunch and have cake while watching the presents being opened. We only played for a little while as each child only had 24 tokens(most games cost 3 or 4, some only lasting maybe a min to play) my sister cane to me saying the guy told her we needed to be out by 12:50 because there was a party after us. We were taken back because we were not informed of this when booking, especially since we didn't even get to start on time but fine, we will hurry up the kids and get back to the room. Next thing I know (as I have just convinced the kids to go get cake and ice cream) my sister came to me saying they had been kicked out of the room (mind you it's only like 12 30 or so at this point) the next party had shown and they decided we needed to leave. Our kiddos couldn't even finish their party. I have no clue why this party took precedence, maybe theyvare to blame as well in ruining my neices very first birthday as well, but the facility shoukd of handled it 1000 times better than what yhey did. This experience was beyond disappointing. I had hoped to have my sons birthday party there in August as I was so excited to finally get to take my kids here, but we definitely will not waste the time or money. I highly recommend going anywhere else.

Stunning Park, Deeply Disappointing Experience and Park Practices:…read more A park this beautiful shouldn't leave visitors feeling deceived and angry -- but after my first visit, I'll never invest another penny to return. The grounds are pristine, the scenery breathtaking, and it's the kind of place you'd gladly support -- I would have happily donated to help preserve it. But being blindsided with a $128 citation for parking in the visitor's lot, at the ranger station, before even reaching the park itself, left a lasting mark that no view could erase. We were short on time, but since it was her favorite birthday tradition -- and her two friends (myself included) had never seen the park she loved so much -- my friend offered to give us a quick drive-through using her season pass. We parked just outside the small brown ranger station at the main entrance -- before entering the park itself -- and hopped into her vehicle, which had the pass. We stayed only long enough to share a small cupcake and take in her favorite view. When I returned to my car minutes later, I found a $128.xx citation on my windshield. I was stunned! My car had never entered the park -- it sat at the ranger station where visitors commonly stop for information. When we explained the misunderstanding, the ranger repeated a script he seemed to know too well: "You don't have to pay the citation if you buy a season pass." When it was clear that wasn't an option, he moved to, "We also have a monthly pass," and finally landed on "daily." Why not start there? It felt rehearsed -- as if this situation happens often, relying on loosely interpreted rules to justify charges. We had deliberately parked outside to ensure we were abiding by the park's rules -- a choice made out of respect, not avoidance. Ironically, we could have driven through without a care and paid the same or less. It made me wonder if this is how the park maintains such immaculate grounds -- by penalizing good-intentioned visitors for honest mistakes, time and time again, until the script is second nature. For those unaware: the moment your tires touch the gravel -- even before reaching any usable part of the park -- it's considered "entry." There was no signage clarifying this, no grace for an honest misunderstanding, and no willingness to resolve it fairly. What could have been a memory of shared beauty became a lasting disappointment. Instead of creating lifelong visitors, this experience ensured that none of us will return. It breaks my heart that a place so beautiful left such an ugly impression.

And not in a good way....a lot of the things that made this Zoo so special and dear to me have been removed. The food is mid, the ambiance is depressing, and overall it's just not at all what it was. The animals are still cute as always and there's even been some new additions! However, I wish they would stop trying to be basic and boring and instead bring back what they used to be; Fun and engaging for all!

From very young to a little over the hill, they all were having so much fun performing and showing what they could do. The first half of the show was meant as a demonstration and instructional type show with the announcer explaining what they were doing and what the technical terms were. It gave some of the newer skiers an opportunity to perform and get used to the nerves! He also provided background on a lot of the performers and it's amazing how many have gone on to win awards throughout the world, all starting at Catfish Bay! It's a small little lake but they're doing amazing things on the water! The corny little skits by "Norm" as filler had the kiddos laughing hysterically!!
