What an incredible local zip line park! Yesterday, I took my girls and my nephew to Trinity Forest…read moreAdventure Park, and we had an absolute blast. I was surprised to find such an exciting outdoor adventure spot right on the edge of Dallas. The staff was fantastic--friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. The park features nine aerial adventure courses, each offering different levels of difficulty, making it perfect for all skill levels. Every course was a thrill! We spent three hours tackling as many challenges as we could and completely lost track of time. This is a fantastic destination for families and groups looking for a fun and active outdoor experience. We'll definitely be back!

You will have to buy gloves for the activity so you don't mess up your hands while doing the courses or they also do have them for sale in the entrance for $10 each pair. Upon checking in, 2 people at the front aren't the best at customer service, not welcoming at all. Our instructors tho were amazing and we thankfully got out into a bigger group and we all had a blast. Very shaded activity as well, no need for a hat in my opinion, they also had free lockers.

5 stars -- We had an absolute blast. I took my 2- and 4-year-old by myself and wasn't entirely sure…read morewhat to expect. My 4-year-old had seen Fritz's on YouTube and wanted to go, so I did just enough research to know we needed tennis shoes and that I should be prepared to climb and crawl with them, and off we went. Both girls were nervous about several attractions at first, but that honestly became one of my favorite parts of the experience. They were able to try things at their own pace, build confidence, and go back to obstacles that initially scared or challenged them. Watching my 2-year-old repeatedly attempt one obstacle, finally master it, and come running over so proud of herself was worth the admission by itself. There was plenty for both of their ages to do without harnesses, including the underground tunnels, climbing areas, airplane and laser maze. I also loved that this isn't exclusively a little-kid attraction. We saw toddlers, elementary-age kids, teenagers and adults all genuinely having fun. As my kids grow, there will still be new things here for them to try. I participated with my kids instead of watching from the sidelines, and I had just as much fun as they did. If you're bringing younger children, I'd definitely recommend wearing comfortable clothes and tennis shoes and being prepared to climb, crawl and explore with them if that's your parenting style. The facility was clean, the staff were friendly, and we were pleasantly surprised by the food--it was good and reasonably priced for an attraction. We stayed for hours and still didn't do everything. We enjoyed it enough that I bought a season pass. With my girls currently being young enough to enter free, it was an incredible value, especially for an indoor, air-conditioned activity in Texas. We'll absolutely be back.

My son enjoyed himself, but there are HUGE safety concerns here. He would have been safer on a…read moreconstruction site. He ran into a concrete wall at full speed and almost hurt himself because it was so dark. He also got injured while in the plane and his friend also got injured on the slide. I have included a picture. There was also a man who made him extremely uncomfortable who works there and who was wearing black lipstick. Tattoos everywhere and just not professional. Additionally, my son and his two friends went to get snacks and one of the items his friend was buying was .12 cents short. The worker gave him no grace and wouldn't let him have it. I mean, I get it was a little short, but seriously? He was buying it for his friend who needed a drink too. You guys lost an opportunity as a business to go above and beyond -- especially for an eleven year old! My son had a fun time, but I'm not sure if I'd take him back. I think his friends made the experience TBH. Y'all need to hire better and fix those safety issues. Someone will sue. UPDATE: They went through the motions of responding publicly, but once contacted through email completely stonewalled me and never responded. Will never give them another dime and neither should you.

Suppose you've been at the indoor water park at Great Wolf Lodge for 2 full days and you are ready…read morefor a different, less soggy activity. The weather outside is a gorgeous, sunny, breezy 65 degrees. You don't mind spending $13 per person to balance on tightropes 5 stories up in the air. Now is the perfect time to conquer Howler's Peak. Our group of 3 went out around 2pm on a fall weekday when most kids are in school, so we had no wait at all. The staff quickly helped us get harnessed up, then we were attached to the safety track snaking throughout the course and set free to roam at will. From the ground, it doesn't seem too tough. You can see that many of the paths look like sturdy wooden-looking ladders on their sides, with plenty of stable foot landings and hand-holds for your crossing. However, once you climb up the stairs to each level, you realize that many paths you must cross are only rope, or with large breaks between tiny foot holds, and few or no handholds. The wind feels stronger up there, balancing takes more effort, and everything seems to sway a bit. Even though you know that there is no way the safety harness can let you fall, it is quite a feat to overcome your brain's message to your body, "Hey, dummy, you're about to plummet to your death!" After going around the 2nd and 3rd stories, including 2 thrilling zip line paths, my 8 year old had had enough. He was ready to get his feet back down on the ground, but I knew it was my duty to continue on. I had to show him (and myself) that even though I was nervous, I was not going to quit until I reached the top. From 30 feet to 40 feet to 50 feet I climbed, as a crisscrossed my way around the course. My goal was the top southwest corner of the structure, where I'd jump down to the ground. I've never been interested in bungee jumping elsewhere, as I question the safety & maintenance of the equipment & training of the staff at most of those tourist trap, beach town places. However, the staff & equipment at this attraction made me feel that risk was minimal. Once I made it to the prep station, my harness was transferred to the pulley system and throrough safety check was done. At that point, I just had to make my legs walk off the end of the platform. Wheeeeeeeeee! I'm probably not going to start base jumping any time soon, but man, that was fun. I'll definitely be coming back to do this again the next time I'm visiting Great Wolf. By the way, even if you aren't a guest of the hotel, you can experience Howler's Peak for $25. Closed-toe shoes are required, and I recommend that long hair be secured and sunglasses worn if it's daytime. For little kids under 48 inches, there is a smaller version of the course on the ground, with a smaller fee and no harness required.

The staff was the best I have ever seen and although they were young they were the most dedicated and dependable people. They went above and beyond and were willing to help in anyway possible. They checked up on us all the time and let us do our Retreat our way. The accommodations were perfect for our group of 60 but we did have to get hotel accommodations for our Married couples that were not able to stay at the campsite with their kids. The facilities were clean and for a small retreat site had lots to offer. They had Archery, BB Guns, Canoeing, Rock Climbing and Zipline. They have a really awesome lake that you can swim in as well. The Worship Center was really awesome and had rooms for different sessions on the second floor. They had a brand new A/V system and everything was set up for us when we got there. The staff was again the best I have ever seen because they set up a campfire, joined in the singing then took us on a hay ride. We also had a impromptu dance night at the outdoor dance floor and they taught our young kids some line dancing and the dance from Footloose. Our group definitely will be using the retreat site again because of the location, staff and accommodations.

Fun morning for everyone! Don't forget to sign the waiver online for each participant! And check out for deals they have! We have three boys and one adult who love gokarting so deals are great!

We drove 40 minutes looking forward to go-karting, but the unexpected fee and how our concerns were…read morehandled left us disappointed. After booking tickets online, we arrived and learned that we also had to purchase a required membership pass. That extra charge wasn't clearly disclosed to me during checkout. If a membership is mandatory, customers should see the full cost before paying and making the drive. Finding out at the counter felt misleading. The website advertised speeds of 45 mph, but the front-counter employee told us he could slow the karts down. They definitely didn't feel that fast to me, although I can't verify the actual speed. The experience didn't match the expectations the advertising created. When I brought up the membership fee with the manager, he essentially said it was corporate policy and there was nothing he could do. I understand he may not control the policy, but his response felt dismissive rather than helpful. I'm sharing this so others can make an informed decision before booking. Ask about the required membership fee, the total price, and what speeds you can realistically expect. Clear upfront pricing and a more thoughtful response would have made a big difference.

Lockers if you want to lock things up or cubbies for shoes and a little cafe with quite a few options. There's also a pretty diverse arcade, so lots to keep your attention. It is VERY loud. Between the constant blowers, kids screaming, and loud music, it's hard to hear announcements. Not great for kids with sensory struggles unless you plan accordingly with ear protection. Otherwise, very fun place. We'll definitely be back, and I'll definitely bring ear plugs next time.

They have sports areas like soccer and basketball, large slides, and a jousting type area that had tons of teenagers having a good time. The arcade and claw machines are a good spot for a break/change of scenery. Staff: staff did a good job of monitoring kids and kindly correcting improper use of equipment to keep everyone safe. They were super courteous and kept areas clean. I appreciate staff that can interact well with the kiddos. Price: I love that they have much lower prices for parents. Adults are $7 and kids are $19.95, ages 3 and under $15.95. There is a 2 hour time limit but you can add on time for a lower cost as well. We spent about $50 at the food court for a family of 4, including treats like slushies! We were all full. I reccomended getting food after jump time has run out. It's nice to have a one stop shop. Pizza and wings were good! Love that it's indoors and well air conditioned as the summer approaches. Excited to be back!

Plano has some amazing recreation centers. Even though I don't live in Plano, I make the effort to…read moredrive there once a week now to go swimming. They have several recreation centers with indoor pools. The one at Oak Point is the closest to me, so go here even though my membership is good at all of Plano's recreation centers. The first time I tried this out, I bought a one month pass for $33. That's the cost if you are not a resident of Plano. After enjoying my weekly experience swimming here, I decided to invest in an annual membership. It's over $200 for non-residents, but since my city doesn't have an indoor pool available year round for residents, this is my only option. This is an olympic sized pool, but the lap lanes are lined for the short course of 25 yards instead of the long course of 50 yards. Thank goodness because I'm horribly out of shape. I love that when I come, I can usually split the lane with someone. It's rarely crowded, and plenty of people are lucky enough to get a lane to themselves. There is usually a lane reserved for water walking. Sometimes there are other activities that take place and many of the lanes are closed for reserved groups like swim team or water aerobics classes. This pool also features a deep end with a diving board. On the other side, there is a jungle gym obstacle course pool area. Off to the side is a shallow toddler pool. Outside there are two more pools! One of the outside pools has a shore entrance and periodically a horn sounds to let you know that some wave action is about to start. The two outdoor pools are popular with kids and families. During the summer months, the outdoor pools are open every day. After Labor Day, I think they are only open on the weekends. My membership allows me access to other Plano recreational facilities. Also, there is a gym inside Oak Point with free weights, weight machines, and cardio equipment like treadmills. I haven't even been into the gym yet. Not sure I ever will. I'm just so happy to be able to swim year around in the indoor pool.
