My Funplex experience was AMAZING! A friend saw a post online about an After Dark event so we…read morebooked it. The After Dark hours were from 9PM-1AM for a 21 and over crowd. When we arrived, everything was up and running as if it were daytime. All the games, rides and attractions were in service. I rode Go Karts for the first time in yearrrs and I actually came in first place. Me! That was dope. The BIG FUN though was all the water rides. Lazy River, pool tubing and the main pool were all open and full of people ready for a great time. We were treated to a DJ who understood the crowd assignment and shoutout to the most wonderful staff. All employees on this night were in a great mood and they gave party vibes too. The promoters didn't over sell this event, so crowds and lines weren't a problem at all. I had such a blast that I wasn't even mad about getting my phone wet. I'm looking forward to going back to The Funplex for another After Dark night out. I thought they were gonna shortchange us but that didn't happen. We were given the whole experience. Good stuff!

We got wristbands and although it was rainy on and off they were able to keep operating since there wasn't a danger such as thunder or lightning. Lines weren't long because of the weather.

Had lots of refreshment options and also adult beverages you could purchase. The people working the birthday side were upbeat and friendly.

There are a lot more for the younger crowd than other parks around the area. The go karts and batting cages are a nice addition. There's a parking lot right behind and next to the park, so no searching for parking. There's a waterpark across the street, Runaway Rapids. We can't wait until the summer to go. It's so much fun.

Wonderful establishment!…read more Came in around 5:30 PM today and was greeted by the most attentive staff even before I knew where to go. They were very helpful, even saw that I was wearing my Army cap and mentioned the military discount before I had even said anything! They were great. I read some complaints on here about the "fetch it yourself" water hazards with the nets but I thought it added a neat aspect to the game. The course itself was well maintained for an outdoor course. The difficulty was just right where it should be for a family oriented place. Wasn't too hard that the kids in front of us couldn't play, but wasn't too easy for us older folk that it wasn't fun. All in all, a great course. The time we arrived there weren't many people there. So after our first 18 holes we stopped in the little cafe for a pizza. Prices weren't bad for pizza at a mini golf course but I was surprised how good the thin crust pizza was! Definitely hand made and baked just right. The food gave us good motivation to continue through another round. Our second round was only $3 per person, how could we pass that up? By this time it was getting later in the evening, around 6:30 so it started getting crowded quick! We were definitely lucky to make it there so early to avoid the crowed. Had a great time here, definitely looking forward to coming back and hopefully seeing the awesome staff again!!

Oak Ridge, NJ - calling all influencers! This place is hugely Instagrammable and super enchanting!…read moreLol. Mariah Carey even shot her Christmas music video here. But you don't have to care about snapping cute pics to appreciate that Fairy Tale Forest is an absolute wholesome delight for children and for adults to live their childhood nostalgia. There is a real magical forest feel as you wander through the park, which isn't large, but the life-size storybook cottages and fairy tale sets are beautifully detailed and lovingly restored. The grounds are clean and well-manicured (a sign says the gardens are curated by Raine Garden Designs). A list of daily events & activities are posted such as magic shows, live music, and character meet & greets. The staff and actors are all warm and friendly. My child loved running around and exploring, participating in the activities, but I enjoyed it just as much if not more. There are shaded picnic tables under umbrellas (next to the Bluebird Stage so you can catch a show while you eat). The food is from the on-site restaurant Fables, and is quite good, certainly better than your average amusement park fare (I was really happy to get a proper salad!). The restaurant is only open for private parties/events/rentals at the moment, but I'm told they hope to have it up and running at some point. The interior is also themed. There is a reasonably priced gift shop with a nice selection of toys, souvenirs, costumes, and gifts. I would say this park is suitable for younger kids, maybe up to 8 or even an unjaded 10yo (have your kids dress up as knights, wizards, princesses, and fairy tale characters!). It's also kind of a cool spot for a date. This is an "analog" park with some animatronics, and you shouldn't expect any dazzling razzmatazz or high-octane thrills. Six Flags it ain't. But come with the right mindset for the unique experience this is and you won't be disappointed. It's good ol' fashioned throwback family fun and brings back an era that doesn't exist anymore. Indeed, many NJ locals have fond memories of this park from when they were young. It was built in the 1950s by an industrious German dude and features scenes from Grimm's Fairytales that his mother used to read to the family, and was expanded with more set pieces over the next couple of decades. Unfortunately it closed down in 2003 and FINALLY reopened last year, after efforts were stalled during the pandemic. All I can say is goooo and visit this charming, singular, and uncorporatized attraction, and support a still founding family-owned local business. It's a complete joy!

The lady at the Cobra roller coaster decided to cut one lap from the ride when it was our turn to go... I guess she couldn't wait to get lunch. I addressed this and of course she remained quiet and gave me the look. I mean... really? You look around and all you see are young employees in a bad mood (except for the lady at the ticket booth... she was friendly) and half of the rides kept closed (or simply unattended). Also, there are no restrooms! I'd recommend to give a look inside before committing to pay anything. Do yourself a favor and visit the nearby Queens Zoo, which is a great little gem.
