Then he walks away. Dude, I'm clearly leaving. There was no sign and no one told us to move the stroller for the 2hours we were there. If it was as concerning as he made it sound, then proper precautions like a sign or even a cone would've been placed by the cord. What irked me was that he was unprofessional and lacked customer service. Clearly hates his job. Walked away without saying "thank you." In summary, it's a fun place for kids, but watch out for disgruntled employees.

The booking process was smooth, and the owners were a pleasure to work with--friendly, helpful, and professional.

First of all, the space is equipped for children of all ages (from babies to big kids who have a trampoline and a zip line at their disposal)! All the children who were at the birthday party were delighted! Secondly, the party room is also good! There is enough room for approximately 30 people. Definitely enough space for everything. Thirdly, the service is impeccable! The new owners are really wonderful people, very flexible, easy to negotiate, helpful, kind... I have no words! Indeed all the praises! They are good organizers, and have great ideas that will improve this place even more! I would definitely recommend this place to everyone and for sure will come back!

Last week were invited to a 2 year old birthday party. Never heard of the place, but based off the…read morereviews, we were very eager to see what we had in store. Being a private party, the entire area was closed off for the evening, allowing 15 kids from the ages 9months-12 years old to roam freely without any public foot traffic. Already giving that a 5/5 for less stimulation. The place was extremely tidy and every kids dream, from trampoline, zip lining, climbing, and Montessori toys. This place has a wide range of sensory toys for everyone. Definitely writing this on my list of "fun activities " to do with my little ones. Nervous about visiting during public play, but hoping that if we stick to early hours, we can get a low traffic play time. Would recommend for any parent looking for a change of environment compared to traditional trampoline park or Gymboree play place.

When you're looking for stuff to do with your kids, you have 3 main questions:…read more 1. Will my kid have fun? 2. Will it make my kid tired enough to sleep? 3. Can I do this without spending a fortune? In the case of Jump Town, the answer to all 3 is: YES When you walk in, you'll remove your shoes, sign a waiver and pay your entry fee ($13 during the week, $15 on weekends). What's nice is that the price includes two free adults per child. Inside, you'll find massive bounce houses and trampolines designed to burn off all that preschool energy. Everything is free with the exception of a couple of video games or air hockey. There's a small room in the back with some building materials for kids who like to do that. There's a small fenced-in area with small play structures for really little kids. They do have a snack stand available, but you can bring your own food. They have 2 women's bathrooms and 1 for men. There are party rooms available. I think the right age for this place is 3-6. When we were there on a Sunday, there were a couple of bigger kids who don't really know how to watch out for little ones, so if your kid is on the small side, you might need to keep a close eye on them. If you'd like to save money, you can get a 10-pack of visits for $100. You'll probably be back, so this is a great value, especially if you have more than one kid.

My son was able to stay entertained for 2-3 hours easily, so you really get your money's worth. The only downside is that they don't offer any hot food, but they do have some snacks like chips and drinks available if you need a quick bite. Overall, for the price and the amount of fun my child had, this place is definitely worth it.

Can I do this without spending a fortune? Next Level checks all 3 boxes. The giant attraction of Next Level is a huge cargo net-type thing that kids love to climb through. It's pretty amazing. I've never seen another attraction like that. There's also a large play structure with stairs and slides and a zipline and tunnels and such. Another area has the popular giant foam building blocks. There are two large inflatable-surrounded trampolines. Next Level has a small play area for very little kids - the other attractions are probably too tricky unless your kid has a great sense of balance and agility. I appreciated that they had a small air hockey table available for $1 per play. The larger air hockey table is $2 to play. The seating area has mostly large picnic-style tables. Everything seemed very clean and well maintained. The bathroom even smelled like cleaning products, which is a great sign. The price is reasonable, but I docked a star because they don't allow outside food. The perfect play place allows for snacks to keep the kiddos fueled up. Still, my kids had a great time at Next Level. It's perfect for kids in the 4-6 age range.
