What a great place for younger children! Not only is this place fairly large and has great toys for the kids to play with, it's also decently priced. It was $12 for two hours. This was for both my daughter and me. You are required to have socks. They have socks you can buy if you don't have your own. The point of the socks is because you don't want shoes on the play area when the babies and kids crawl. It's to keep everything clean. There's two different play sections. There's a section that has an area for them to climb, a ball pit, and a little thing they can spin in. Then there's the other side that has multiple toys for the kids to play and use their imagination! There's different play kitchens, a grocery store, a pet hospital, a castle and so much more. You can also host a birthday party here. There's two different rooms. I believe you have the option to rent out and share with the public or you can rent out the entire space for a private party. The nice thing is they have pricing available on the website. They also sell small snacks and drinks. There's a changing station in the bathroom as well. And overall the place is clean. Definitely will be returning especially on rainy and super hot days! read more

Elys's Play House is a great indoor play option especially if you have younger children. My toddler loves coming here. Grippy socks are required & you can sign a waiver before arrival. They also have a points system which is a nice perk. There are many different options to play with with the jungle gym, play pin structure to the very large back space area for imaginary play. I would recommend checking out their Instagram for real time business hours. Overall clean facility. My daughter loves it here highly recommend you check it out! read more

Ely’s Play House - Ball pit! - Indoor Playcenter Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

This place has lots of fun activities and was great for bringing my toddler. She wasn't as interested in the big kid area, but she had fun in the other areas. The place seemed mostly clean. A few toys were missing parts or broken, but still interesting to a toddler. But overall, everything seemed well-kept. My only complaint might be that some of the songs playing didn't feel child-appropriate. But most of them seemed fine. The music was mainly noticeable from the front room. read more

We attended the st Patrick's day event for our first visit today. The place has so much to do for kids. My son is almost 3 and he loved all of the pretend play, slides, blocks, etc. they truly have everything for any type of activity a child can be into. The place was very clean and organized and the staff was very friendly. Price was very reasonable and we even got to meet bluey! Would definitely bring my kid back! read more

This place is amazing amazing. I took my 11-month-old and it was perfect for younger kids. One of the best parts is not having to stress about older kids running around or little ones getting trampled. What really stood out is that it's way more than the usual play spots. Instead of just a jungle gym and ball pit, they actually have little themed areas like mini kitchens and small workshop setups, which makes it so much more engaging. There's also this fun little roller coaster-style toy my baby absolutely loved. It really helped her practice motor skills and stay active in a more intentional way instead of just running around. The staff were super nice and everything was really clean. They even had high chairs available, and they were already spotless and ready to use, which made things so much easier as a parent. Overall, it felt safe, clean, and actually designed with younger toddlers in mind. Definitely one of the better play spaces we've been to and we'll for sure be coming back. read more

My hubby and I stopped in with our toddler a few days ago and she had an absolute blast! Her favorite item was the little piano and she loved playing in their play kitchen and play store! Mirarose is just 1 so she got fussy before our time slot ended. My only complaint would be to replace the batteries for the toys in the baby area to really get the true experience. This indoor playground caters specifically to ages 9 months to 8 years old, they have plenty of seating, cubbies, sell snacks and drinks and even host birthday parties! Their deal for June is just $12 for 2 hours! We forgot to bring Grip Socks, but they were just $3.25 each and we signed the waiver conveniently online! 4/5 stars, a great place to tire your kids out and stay cool inside! We'll be back with our 8 year old! Support this small business! SYOY! :) *Song Credit: Uplifting Children Music by REDproductions Site: https://pixabay.com/music/-joyful-hope-carefree-uplifting-children-bright-corporate-music-16510/ read more

I have nothing but great things to say about Ely's playhouse!!! My kids love coming here to play and they have such a great selection of toys and activities and the jungle gym for them to run and exhaust all their energy! I planned my daughter's first birthday here and gave the owner my vision board and she did not disappoint! She kept me in the loop when she chose the decor and brought my vision to life! Great deal, great service and beautiful decorations!! everyone was talking about it and I am so happy on how everything turned out! Thank you so much read more

Came here for a friend's kiddo's birthday party and had a good time. Overall, there was plenty of space for the kids to run around, the equipment was relatively well maintained, and we didn't see or find any issues w/ hygiene or uncleanliness, which is impressive giving that they're catering to kids. I think they don't want adults in the ball pit because we would crush the plastic balls! :) The food and the decorations were solid. Plenty of mish-mash miscellaneous toys and gymnastics equipment as well as play kitchens, houses, and castles for the kids to run around in. There is a jungle gym area to explore for the bigger kids as well. Plenty of adjacent parking in the lot, although the lot is shared with a billiards/bar location and is tucked away from the main street. Would overall recommend to check out if you're planning a kiddo party. read more

Why a wonderful playhouse for small kids/toddlers. So much room for kids to play and different things to play with. Your kid will not get bored. They have a room u can reserve for your party. Decorated so nicely and u can bring your food from outside along with their food package. Amazing venue! Gave it a 5! No complaints read more

Ely’s Play House - Reserved room eat area for kids fully decorated!! - Indoor Playcenter Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

This place is pretty gross. When we walked in, I explained that it was our first time and the staff were rude, impatient, and the blonde one with the nails actually rolled her eyes at my mom for not moving fast enough so she could talk to another customer (a "party mom"). The entire place looks like a mish mash of garage sale children's toys/equipment. Everything is run down. The enclosure to keep kids inside is multiple different baby fences zip tied together, and the actual "air lock" gate is a household baby gate that was wobbly and very easy to push open. Everything is dirty, even surfaces that appear relatively easy to simply wipe down on a daily basis. The small toys in the back room and infant area were strewn about and obviously haven't been cleaned recently. I'm not surprised to read that another person reported their kid getting ringworm from this place. There are signs EVERYWHERE telling all the stuff you can't do ("no parents in the ball pit", "keep balls in the pit", "don't remove toys from this space", etc.). It's excessive and weird considering most of their clientele (small kids) can't even read yet. They also have hobby lobby style live laugh love -esque signed everywhere as well, some very rude. It's super off putting. Lastly, there is play equipment that is simply unsafe. There is a gymnastics bar that has only one side covered in padding, leaving the metal exposed. This place is depressing, dirty, and unfriendly. We only tried it out because Enchanted Cosmos was closed... which is where we will continue to go in the future. I'll never bring my child back to Ely's. read more

This place has potential to be good, but it is filthy. Like actual grime and dirt everywhere. It was disgusting. I won't be returning with my kids because it's very evident that staff does not clean anything. Complete germ breeding ground. read more

Love this playground. Felt safe letting my 18mo old run around. Everything is padded well (except bathroom area). Currently $16 for 2hrs, $20 for all day play. Hours posted on their IG and website. If 2nd parent, need to pay extra which I wish wasn't a thing since we like to do things together as a family. Discount for siblings. Membership $60/mo. They have a small room for birthdays/ classes and 2 large rooms for play, good use of space. Lots for younger kids to play and the playground area is fun for kids to run around in. Outside is unassuming but inside is fun fun fun. read more

I visited Elys Playhouse and was really disappointed. The place was dirty, toys were scattered everywhere, and most of them didn't even work. This was my second visit, and somehow it was worse than the first. The girl working had her boyfriend sitting at the front desk while she was in the back on her phone, and the whole space felt completely unmonitored. The toys are extremely old, not maintained, and there's barely anything suitable for a 2‑year‑old to do. Everything just felt filthy and neglected. They really need to invest back into the space and the toys because right now it's not a safe or enjoyable environment for young kids. read more

Used to be a decent place. Not worth it for the money anymore. Check out any of the other indoor places for a batter value....roseville or rancho or locally. This place is falling apart and owners dont seem to care other than getting their money. read more

Went there recently for my nephew's birthday party! The kids had a lot of fun. They did not want to leave. My sister booked the party room, so it was private for us. The kids shared play area with other kids. Overall, it was a great experience and fun place for kids especially young ones to go! read more

This place was so good for my 13 month old that's almost walking. She loved all the different toys they had to offer, play kitchens, soft ramps, etc! I'd definitely recommend this place for any age whether it's an infant crawling to a 7 year old running around. There's so much for everyone. This was my first time here so they provided grip socks for purchase for me and my daughter that are required to wear. The staff was nice and friendly. Only thing that made me laugh was every adult in there was glued to their phones while their kids ran around. I guess that's the point, to give parents a break but it made me chuckle. read more

We found this place on a Google search when looking for a place to have our 5 year olds birthday party. My daughter tends to get scared on bigger play equipment and she wasn't scared of anything here. All of the kids had a blast on all of the equipment and I was very impressed with the decorations they provided in the room. We will be future visitors for open play for sure. read more

PSA for Anyone Booking Events Here We hosted my niece's first birthday party at this venue, and it turned out to be a terrible experience. The party host was rude, unprofessional, and tried to end our event early, even though we had reserved and paid for the full time. To make things worse, they refused to return our deposit, claiming some of our guests were on the carpet with shoes and food -- something that did not happen, it was also open play during the tine of our event which means it was also open to the public . We cleaned up after ourselves and respected the space, yet we were treated unfairly and spoken to disrespectfully. After looking into other reviews, I realized we're not the only ones. There are multiple complaints from other customers describing the same issues -- rude staff, unprofessional behavior, and unfair withholding of deposits. Please take this as a warning before booking your special event here. It's sad when places that are supposed to help families celebrate milestones end up taking advantage of people instead. Share this so others don't go through the same thing. read more

This place has a lot of potential, but my experience hasn't been the best. The staff aren't very friendly and seem a bit rude at times. On top of that, the rules keep changing depending on who you talk to. It feels like the staff don't really know their own policies, which makes things confusing for parents. The play area itself could also use more attention. Some of the toys seem dirty, and the ones that are supposed to light up or make noise usually don't have working batteries. It's a good concept and kids can definitely have fun here, but with better staff training, clearer rules, and more upkeep/cleaning, this place could be so much better. read more

I came here to attend a birthday party and my two toddlers had a blast!! This is great indoor playhouse for younger kids. There's essentially two different play rooms. One is like a "jungle gym" but still has a small playarea for little kids, lots of wooden toys and some lovevery toys as well. I was actually impressed with the higher quality toys like Lovevery brand items. There's a room with playhouses and slides, reminds me of what some smaller home daycares would have. There are padded cushions that allow kids to climb in this area. There's a toy kitchen, playhouses and tool bench area. This is really great area for my younger kids who love to make pretend and play. There is no food in the play, must bring or purchase grippy socks. If you rent out this space, there's a small room to the side for a party where the host can set up cake, food and drinks. They even have kid friendly table and chairs in this area for the kiddos. There's also table seating for adults to sit, rest and snack. The bathrooms area is relatively clean. There are lockers near the bathroom area for families to put their stuff. We didn't have any trouble with the parking lot. Easy to find parking. However, we did come when it was raining so even though we parked closeby, it seemed longer in the rain! read more

We love coming to Ely's playhouse. My kids enjoy getting some energy out and meeting up or making new friends. I know my kids are in a safe and clean enviorment to play and explore. read more

My family and I were one of the first customers to start coming to Ely's when it first opened a few years back and it was such a great idea, SOOO clean and well kept. We had my daughters birthday here back in march and that was okay, the kids had fun but our decor was lack luster and tbh it was $700+ and NOT worth it whatsoever. At the time I thought the upkeep was decent, they had a good amount of staff. I decided to stop in today with my daughter to get some playtime in and I was so disturbed by how genuinely filthy this place has become. Toys that look easy to wipe down were very clearly dirty, most of the little play kitchens/houses didn't have working batteries and many were without their original pieces. We didn't even play an hour before I just grabbed my daughter and left. There's groups of people who come and sit at the tables talking and just let their kids run wild without actually watching them, the blonde front desk girl had her son there who was terrorizing others and throwing stuff around. It was such a bummer to see how quickly the overall quality has gone down. Fingers crossed we don't get some crazy illness from this place because wow read more

Brought my two kiddos here to get some energy out with the rain and cold weather and this place was great! Lots of things for the kids to play with, really clean and super friendly! You pay for two hours of play and it was just enough to get some energy out! read more

This place was filthy. Toys, floor, walls were all dirty. The inside of the play structure was lit up with floor lamps so it was dim and stuffy. It just didn't seem like they cleaned or disinfected anything in there... ever. When we left my son's knees were black from crawling in the play structure and we all had a weird grimy film on our hands from how dirty it was. It's next door to a bar and a tattoo shop. Seemed like a strange location. Could be a coincidence but both my kids got croup 2 days later. read more

Problem with employees bringing their own kid they do not watch. These kids are annoying and bossy and getting away with things the should not be . Also employees chit chating and gossiping with customers. ​ Tried to explain to employee what their child was doing , she just got defensive and did not want to listen . Going to be video tapping stuff now . Maybe turn it into the BBB read more

I'm always on the lookout for new play places for our toddler and I was excited to check this one out! We got a Groupon for half the regular price but I think their normal pricing is already comparable to other similar places in the area. This one has a lot to do for both older and younger kids, and it's really spacious. There is a sitting area for parents too if your kids are older, and a few benches spread out inside the play areas too. To make your sign-in process go faster, sign a waiver online and make sure you bring non slip socks so you don't have to pay for them! We came at opening on a weekday and it was so nice and quiet (I think they forgot to turn on the music) but as time passed, more and more kids showed up and it became more chaotic as expected in this type of place. The lady who checked us in was super nice also. I saw they had some coffee and snacks, I assume for sale. Their Instagram shows a lot of birthday parties also, for any theme you like! My favorite part is it seemed super clean and everything was so new. Some other places are more rundown or older but everything was so neat and clean here, probably because we came when they opened too. We easily stayed for 2 hours and time flew by. I can't wait to bring our son back again soon! read more

This place is great for children of all ages. We had a birthday party for my son and he was so happy with everything. We were nervous holding a birthday without visiting the place, but we were very impressed with the results. They did a great job decorating the bubble guppies theme and the different play areas made it so you child can be entertained for at least a couple of hours. We were able to bring in own cake and food and drinks. We recommend this place for a birthday and my 3 yr old already keeps asking to go back. read more

Went here recently for a birthday party and my son had such an amazing time! He is an almost 11 month old and really enjoyed playing in the infant area and also the big room that has the kitchen area and gymnastics little set up. There was so much for him to do and definitely wore him out after a good 1.5 hours. Will definitely be returning soon. I appreciated also all the signs they have posted letting people know to take shoes off. With having a baby thay crawls around it is nice knowing that there isnt all those outside germs getting everywhere that he was crawling. read more

We just had our daughter's 5th birthday at Elys and it was a great experience! We rented the whole building for our private party and I would recommend to anyone with a a lot of adults and kids for a summer birthday party. The staff communicated all the rules and prior provided the waivers for parents to fill out ahead of time rather than when appearing for the party, and that was helpful with the kids all wanting to run off instantly to play with the birthday girl! read more

I brought my son here for the first time, the staff (front desk blonde hair with the long nails) was extremely rude to my mother in law, snapping at her to get out of the way while actually rolling her eyes I order to becon another mom who was paying for a party. It felt very strange and off putting. Then we entered and it made more sense. The place was filthy, I had a white shirt on that wasn't white by the time I left. The spaces they dont think you will look are covered in hair and dirt. There are safety issues everywhere, like an elevated gymnastics bar over exposed metal legs with bolts sticking out, which is along the path of a ramp where kids are launching themselves across the floor on ride on cars. The signs where the ridiculous part though, lots of signs everywhere saying that you can do this or you can't do that, dont criss here, no balls there, no person of age here or there. The welcom-ish sign above the back play room was particularly fitting as it intonation that you may be welcome depending on if they like upu enough or how long you are staying. Overall, this is a very unpleasant experience. We felt pretty grossed out most of the time that we were there. I don't usually leave reviews, however, this place and its staff caught my attention. I would not patronize this business as there are much better alternatives in sacramento. They really don't seem to care about their customers, it definitely feels like they're tolerating you not welcoming you. read more

My 10 month old baby had a blast. We will definately be back. Well worth the cost too.

Brought our 4 and 7 year olds here for the first time and they LOVED it! Very reasonably priced and it wasn't crowded, although the staff said it's 50/50 whether it's super busy or chill. We felt comfortable relaxing while our kids played and there was a lot for them to do. We spent a solid two hours here and the kids did not get bored. Great way to pass some time and have some fun. We definitely plan to come back. read more
