My family went on a little vacation to Minneapolis and had some free time. We found this place and…read moredecided to go to have some fun. Although the entree was a little pricey my experience was really enjoyable. The mini trampoline park was fun, and it burned lots of calories - lol. My younger brother learned how to do a backflip. At the trampolines there was supervision by workers and other parents. At the arcade there were many few games that I wanted to play, but I am very picky. Laser tag wasn't really that fun, but only because we went against 4 really good guys. I ended up with negative points because of them . Mini golf is a fun family activity to do with your family! There are water hazards and many of the golf balls were the water which I thought was really funny. It's not even that hard to have your ball land in the water! We didn't try the batting cages but it looked super cool. They had bats and helmets already there for the guests. Near the end of our stay at the grand slam we were tired so we ordered 2 large icee's. The icee machine was frozen and couldn't make the icee's. So the workers gave us a free large soda. I wasn't that mad at the situation. Over all I give this experience a 5 star ranking! A wonderful family friendly place to go in your free time!

My family stopped by for a game of mini golf on a Saturday evening at 6 pm before our dinner…read morereservation. The course is old and easy, but we have played it before and liked it. This time it was a disaster. Completely overrun by little kids who treated the course like a playground. Some had parents who were present and not trying to keep any order. In fact, we had adults just standing around the holes we were playing. When I asked one lady if she could move, she asked why! People were running around randomly playing--total chaos. An employee walked through and did nothing. If I was looking for a jungle gym for my small children, ok, but DO NOT COME HERE TO PLAY A ROUND OF MINI GOLF. You can't!

They brought out a huge snake and a young alligator for us to see up close. You can also get pictures with some animals for an extra charge. Fun for everyone, but especially little kids.

I honestly have no idea what the bad reviews are about. Kamp Dels is AMAZING…read more My friend has a seasonal spot overlooking the waterpark and I would spend every weekend here if I was her. Killer waterpark, petting zoo, bowling alley, arcade, mini golf course, big playground for the kids... And it's right on the lake for fishing. There's a tram that drives by every 5-10 minutes to bring you anywhere in the park. Kamp Dells is easily 5 stars for me. For this part of Minnesota, it doesn't get much better on a hot summer day. Seasonal spots are expensive, which seems to be what a lot of the complaints are about. But if you accept that the price is the price... I really can't imagine what anyone would have to complain about.

I'd jump with another company next time. While the jump itself was a breathtaking experience,…read moreSouthern Minnesota Skydiving is very difficult to work with. We purchased Groupons for two tandem jumps plus videos, and it was very easy to schedule our jumps at first. However, due to weather, our jump was canceled and rescheduled twice. It's completely understandable to cancel due to weather, but their team dragged their feet when trying to help us reschedule. After weeks of calling, texting, and emailing their team, I was finally able to get a hold of someone to set a date and time. When we finally arrived for our jump it seemed their jump team was unaware we were coming. Whoever I had spoken with to reschedule, never put us on their calendar and the team was about to cancel on us again. We said we'd wait as long as we needed to, and after 4 hours we were finally able to jump. The jump itself was amazing, breathtaking, and beautiful. We knew it would be, which is why we had purchased videos with our package. The team said they'd send us their videos within a few days after the jump, but we still haven't received them. It's been a few weeks now, and they're not returning my calls, emails, or texts. Nor are they returning calls from the other jumper in our group. The videos alone were $40/each.

The employees and crew are great people. More than helpful honest and most of professional. We had…read morefive people jumping and due to the weather we had to reschedule for the following day. Even though they had people scheduled they let is come early and jump in front of the others who were scheduled. I will never look at the sky the same again. Absolutely breath taking experience.

Spare Time is the local bowling alley with a bar and restaurant, I don't bow, so this review only…read morepertains to the restaurant. I've eaten lunch here a few times and I really don't have any problems with the food. I've had their pizza before and I was impressed. Good ingredients and a quality thin crust. On my most recent visit I had a ham and swiss panini with fries. The taste of the panini was fine but I thought there could have been more ham. The fries were very good. Just enough crispiness and mildly seasoned. Unfortunately the thing I remember most from each visit is sub-par service. My server was very nice but didn't know what beers they had on tap. When I was done eating I waited at least five minutes to get the bill and this was the first time I'd been approached since my food was delivered. In her defense, she was probably new and over-worked. She was the only one I saw doing anything. The prices were standard. The food is good but not great. My overall impression is that it's adequate.

Very disappointed, went there for lunch, ordered the Hawaiian burger special for the month of June…read more They pulled it so no more. No new special. It's June 18th??? Then wanted fruit instead of fries, usually get two or three different kinds of fruit, grapes, cantaloupe and honey dew melon , got only the honeydew melon, ugh.. so frustrating.

This is our favorite dog park in EP. Sometimes I go to the smaller park on Flying Cloud because it…read morehas a separate little-dog area, but I've never had any trouble at Staring with either my mini dachshund or chihuahua. This is a great park for dogs who love to run fast, like our corgi, or dogs who just like to sniff, pee on every blade of grass, and wander along. I love that the park is a fully fenced 4-acre hilly woodland place and even if a dog runs away, they can't get out and will find you eventually. There's no open or standing water, so your pooch won't get wet and stinky for your ride home. Spring and fall are my favorite times here because these woods get buggy in summer; that's when I switch to the park on Flying Cloud. It's smaller, just over an acre, but more open (wear sunscreen!) and there is agility equipment for both the large dog side and the little dog side. It's hilarious to watch my doxie "leap" over the 4" hurdle!

Plus it has an out house toilet in case the humans need to use it.

Another awesome Minnesota State Park! I spent one night here in June, 2021 at a drive-in campsite…read more They also have cart-in sites with carts available, and some backpacking sites. I also spotted a building that looked like a rentable event room. But if you just want to spend part of a day here picnicking or hiking trails, they have you covered as well. When I arrived, I went to the front office to check in and buy firewood. The staff were were really, really nice. Like, exceptionally enthusiastic about welcoming campers. And they provided a lot of useful information. There are a good number of drive-in sites, but they were mostly occupied even on this rainy weekend so definitely consider reserving in advance if you can. The whole park is right by the part of the Mississippi River that's wide enough that they call it Lake Pepin. You might spot that on the map and expect that you will constantly be seeing cool views of the lake, but in fact there are so many tall trees along the slopes that you have to go find lookout spots to see the water. It is totally worth finding those lookouts! There are some very gentle hiking trails through the pastures and woodlands, but the Upper and Lower Bluffs trails are definitely more challenging. Lots of nice lookout platforms along those trails, plus there are spots where you can walk down to the rocky beach. Overall I had a great time exploring this park, and I'm excited to return!

Best way to spend my birthday out snowshoeing with friends! The trails here are very scenic with…read moreviews of the Mississippi, and lots of wildlife to boot. Definitely worth the trip especially if you are visiting nearby Red Wing. My only criticism would be that the maps along the trail didn't have a "you are here" marker, but that went away once I figured out each intersection being assigned a letter. Will have to come back in the warmer seasons for a hike and/or camping trip!
