I honestly can't recommend this place enough. I was completely blown away…read more From the moment we walked in, the level of professionalism and cleanliness stood out, especially for a kids' arcade and activity center. Everything felt well run and thoughtfully managed. One thing that really impressed me as a parent was the staff member monitoring the entrance and exit. He was incredibly attentive. He recognized us, noticed our child, and was clearly keeping track of who was coming and going. Of course, you should always watch your own kids, but having someone that alert adds a huge layer of peace of mind. We used a Groupon, and if you have ever used one, you know it can sometimes be a hassle, but not here. The process was seamless. A staff member radioed ahead for us, and by the time we got to the snack counter, they already knew what to do. No waiting, no confusion. We were set up immediately and on our way. That level of coordination was impressive. Every game we tried was working perfectly, including VR games, which is rare in most arcades. Even smaller details, like all the basketballs being available at the Papa Shot machines, did not go unnoticed. The kids' drop ride was a huge hit with my daughter, and the claw machines, which guarantee a prize, were a fun bonus, especially as a way to end the visit on a high note. The prize center was also well balanced, with reasonable ticket costs and fun options. They had some great games too, like rhythm games and classics, that made it enjoyable for both kids and adults. The real surprise was the food. We ordered pizza expecting typical arcade food, but it exceeded expectations by a mile. It was soft, fresh, and genuinely delicious, easily better than what you would find at places like Chuck E. Cheese. The entire dining area was spotless, which is almost unheard of in venues like this. Tables were clean. Floors were clean. Everything felt cared for. The service continued to impress throughout. Our food came out quickly, and when we finished, the staff handled all the cleanup. We actually went out of our way to find cash just to leave a tip because the service deserved it. We originally came for the full experience, including batting cages, laser tag, go karts, and mini golf, but honestly, even before doing any of that, I can confidently say this place is incredibly well run. Based on everything we experienced, I have no doubt the rest will be just as great. If you are a parent looking for a fun, safe, and well managed place for your kids that you will actually enjoy too, this is it.

Be careful going to Family Fun Center. I used to really like this place, and hosted several…read morebirthday parties here. Over the years the technology they use doesn't seem to be keeping up, where things will glitch causing lots of time and effort to get the tickets earned reflected on your card. Luckily we took a picture of the ticket rings that were won at the claw machine prior to adding them onto the card, but even after that, it was still a big hassle where management seemed suspicious that we were trying to dupe them out of tickets that were earned properly. What was surprising is that they didn't even bring the staff member over that scanned the ticket rings initially to confirm she had added the tickets. After adjusting the tickets, my card account was still active on the board, so I went back and checked to make sure it was closed out properly to avoid any further ticket issues. I asked the original staff member if she remembers adding my tickets, and she said she did but we should be good now as this was a system glitch. I accepted the explanation and took that as issue closure. Later when we went to pick prizes, another "lead" employee approached me (wish I would've taken her name), and immediately accused me of being rude and aggressive towards the staff member that added my original tickets. As a lead, I would have expected her to ask me if there was any issues with the employee, instead of outright accusing the customer. I asked her to clarify what was taken as rude or threatening, as I never raised my voice or said anything out of line even though this issue took some time to resolve. She wouldn't give me any specifics but just warned me to not be rude. Instead of getting into any further back and forth with her, I decided to just pick a few prizes and leave. I found it very unprofessional for the lead to approach me in that manner, while the Manager Tabitha didn't step in, even being close by. If something was said that was perceived as rude, let's bring everyone together and hash it out. I can guarantee *God as my witness* that I never said anything offensive, threatening, or rude to any of the staff members. All I did was provide details and proof that there was a system glitch and the tickets that had previously been added were not on the card. At no point did I ever blame or fault anyone at FFC for this issue. Rich Yee, if you'd like to discuss this matter with me directly please reach out.

How thrilling! I liked the reasonable price, the great location at Miners Landing, the short time…read morecommitment and the realistic flight over the state of Washington. I paid for my ticket at a nearby ticket booth. There was a short line at the door, a short pre-show presentation in a separate room and then I was seated and strapped into a seat in a relatively small four row (?) theater. At first, I was concerned that I couldn't see the full screen from my seat. Then my seat lifted as the experience began for a breathtaking view. I was flying behind an eagle over many of the various natural highlights of Washington with a couple of scary and fun close encounters with other flying objects. I also experienced the mist of a waterfall and the smell of a field of flowers. It was a great experience!

One thing that seemed to be missing during our ride was the scent effects, which would have added even more to the 4D experience. As a visitor, I also wish they would call out the locations shown during show maybe in pre-show or throughout the ride. Washington has some incredible scenery, and knowing where I was "flying" would have had me adding places to my must-visit list. Still a fun attraction and definitely worth experiencing while visiting Seattle.

When you arrive, you check in and sign some waivers. You get suited up in a jumpsuit and they take you through some basics of what to expect. There are several instructors with you and they will take one at a time and make sure that you are able to get left and have a great experience. While you're waiting, you can observe and hear the instructions so you know what to expect. I would recommend this for anyone who is looking for the thrill of skydiving and also for group events.

First, 5 stars for the staff. Everyone was super friendly and Tyler was a great instructor! From…read morefront desk to fan operator they have an exceptional team of people that make you feel comfortable, and getting set up did feel pretty seamless. I noticed in the group before mine they were very gentle when flying the young kids which was good to see. A helpful thing to know: 1 flight = 1 minute. They can slice and dice, so if you have 3 flights, you and your friend could each get a 1.5 minute flight. I just wish the sales model didn't feel so gimmicky. First, all the sticker prices are marked up. After you fly, they'll offer you 50% off the 4, 6, and 10 flight packages to get you to come back. Pass on it? You've broken the cycle and you're back to paying full price. Or you've escaped the matrix--frame it as you please. Next, they're going to offer you a $25 "high flight" before each turn. It's cool. The instructor takes you up high in the tube. It doesn't seem to cost them anything extra though--it just eats into your precious 1 minute of flying and takes away from time you'd otherwise use to improve your flying skills. Finally, they'll hit you with the media purchases. They'll snap about 4 photos ($4 each) and a video ($8). This means they spend a bit of your flying time placing you in frame to ensure they have media to sell you. Between my squinting eyes from the camera flashes and the high winds on my face, I looked wasted in all photos lol. So, if you max out the add-ons, you're looking at an additional $49 on top of whatever your 1 minute flight cost. Just for fun, if you made $49/minute full-time, you'd rake in $6 million a year (pre-tax, of course)! And you probably wouldn't think twice about buying the photo package for the lols. At the end, the instructor goes in the tube for a demo flight full of elaborate tricks. Honestly, that was one of the coolest parts. So, it's a neat thing--do it once! I did indulge in the 50% off deal to share the experience with my gf, but I probably won't seek it out much beyond that. In this economy, I can respect their hustle if it's the only thing keeping the lights on.

WILD WAVES CLOSES FOREVER ON 11/1/2026!!!…read more This is the parks 50th season as well as their last season ever as they are closing to make way for a warehouse............. The park is what it is and what that is a positive experience for the community it's a place generations have gathered to enjoy a beautiful day outside riding roller coasters and sliding on water slides it's a fun place to spend a day or the season it's a place that will be missed by all those who have passed through its gates! I've been here a few times over the years and every time has been a fun one I don't even live in this state and I've came here over the years because they have some fun roller coasters and slides like with that how can you go wrong! With that said I hope the community comes together to try to save the park because it truly is a Washington landmark! Overall I've had nothing but good times here and I hope to have one more before the end of the season!

Was once great, but it appears they aren't keeping up with the park since it's closing soon…read more Just recently went one last time before it closes for some childhood nostalgia and was pretty disappointed. There are very limited hours, the coasters don't open until an hour after the park opens (??), and when they are open, the lines are horrendous. I'm not sure if they ever had 2 trains going on the rides but we stood in line for an hour to get on the Timber hawk... that is Disneyland level wait times for a quarter of the amount of people. It was expensive! The tickets are $70 for a day, which is about 7 hours, but the coasters are only open from 12-5:30. I will say the chicken basket had a lot of chicken but it was also $25. The waters were nearly $7, and alcoholic beverages were almost $20 a drink. The elephant ear was $18. There was trash around all the rides that looked like it had been there for more than one day, and no one enforcing any rules. Fences were broken and leaning, rides were shutdown. I understand that they are closing this year but it's a shame that they are going out and seemingly just giving up on the last season. Would've been a great opportunity to make some great memories for Washington residents and leave on a high note.

Definitely the best coaster in the park! The day I went I was surprised that the line for it was…read morereally short compared to the Wild Thing steel coaster that is located up front. Probably because it is kind of hidden all the way back in the park. Wooden coasters are designed to be shaky and give that going off the rails feeling. It's sad that this one is a lot smoother than the steel one because those are supposed to be much smoother. Some tips. As with any coaster, the best seats are usually all the way in the back where you can feel the full G forces when you go down drops and sharp turns. For this ride, you are not allowed to ride it without shoes. No, there is no camera that takes your pic for you to purchase. There is a small shack at the exit that wasn't open so I assume that would of been it. There are no storage bins to put your loose articles in like glasses, hats, etc. You can just put on the ground next to the wall and pick it up as soon as you get off the ride. Minimum height requirement is 48 inches. Overall, The price of admission is not worth it for the whole park. Even if you chose to swim the water park part of it, I think it is still overpriced for most of the park is not maintained properly. Refer to my Wild Waves theme park review. I salute you Timber Hawk! You are the only great ride worth mentioning for the ride part of the park. Yelp 2015 Review #45 545 overall
