The building features a unique green tile ceiling which is worth a visit just to see it! Admission is free but a 5.00 donation is suggested. A typical visit lasts 15-30 minutes. Parking is free.

Yes, there are fish and tanks to check out, but honestly, half the joy is just admiring the architecture. The tile work, the arched ceilings, all the tiny details... it's beautiful and full of history. It's an easy, low-pressure stop where you can wander, take it all in, and not feel rushed. For anyone with little kids, heads up that some tanks sit a bit high, so you may end up lifting them to see--but even then, they're still wide-eyed and excited. It's short, sweet, and totally worth the visit. Such a special little gem, I'm really glad we stopped in.

Almost no trees and it was a 90 degree day when we went. Maybe a bit more enrichment for the animals....they looked very bored. The guy running the tour was knowledgeable and seemed nice. The price of $24 per person was a bit steep tho.

I like that the levels are fairly tall so adults can go up with their littles. They have a huge ball pit, a climbing wall, toddler section and tons of tubes and playing areas. They even had a cafe inside to order food and drinks. I ordered an iced coffee and was wowed by the flavors! Great spot to bring the kiddos.

This location at the Central Park Athletics is fairly new, this used to be the Windsor Ice Rink years ago, and I have since moved back from London a few months ago and have seen the change. The building itself inside is vast and has lots of immensities for people and families of all kind, it's a no judgement area, not like a gym where all you see is buff people working out seemingly judging you. It's nice to have access to the equipment I liked to use at Goodlife for workouts, and the weight area. It's nice because it's not busy during the weekdays at all and it's a nice quiet environment to work out in. The staff are really nice and they're knowledgeable about events, and were very clear about things when I signed up. As for monthly membership fees, if you're on a fixed income or a family rate, you get a certain discount that you can afford, which I still need to sign up for because I'm still paying more than what I did at Goodlife. This facility is clean, it has a basketball court, a pool, family changing rooms as well as men and women's. Friendly staff, good working equipment, they have a weight room, cardio area is always clean and they have a disinfectant spray and cloth to wipe the equipment off when you're finished using it. What a great place to come to for a judgement free workout and a place to feel like you belong.

This a decent workout place. Relatively new facility. Clean. Most importantly family oriented.read more

The staff member at the front is always on it--no corners cut, super attentive, and clearly takes the rules seriously. I really appreciate the setup where adults can't just wander in without a child; that extra layer makes a huge difference for peace of mind. Everything feels well thought out, organized, and genuinely clean. My kids always have a blast here and honestly don't wanna leave.

The manger stated it was kinda busy and to come back around 8pm when they closed. We came back at 8pm and she stayed around to help us out til about 9pm. Kudos to faith ( I believe that was her name) We the show up the next morning at 8:15am as we were told we could to finish setting up cause they opened for the private party at 9am. We show up along with vendors and the manager told us we could not come in til 9am. She was very rude and not pleasant to have communication with. She did end up letting us in around 830 but the air was so thick with tension it was so uncomfortable for all of us setting up. It is not like it was a bunch of kids that were there. It was the birthday girl who was minding her own cause we knew they weren't open. She then asked if he could go play and we informed we don't want her to get yelled at so she would have to wait. The party was a success but it started out on the wrong foot and did not leave a good taste in the mouth. If you need a place to have a private party I WOULD NOT recommend this place.

It was pretty delightful & the staff were super friendly and interacting with the animals. The CC was started 20 years ago with Al the Alligator! He was dropped off at the Vet clinic and they started CC all around him. Pretty awesome. It's not a massive space so it was perfect to get there at 3:30pm - in time for the 4pm show which is followed by an Al the Alligator feeding! We checked out all the habitats on the outside as well. Super cool experience - I'd love to come back for one of their turtle yoga, 18+ paint nights, etc. They always have pretty cool themed programming.
