I found The Grid tracks on the narrow side, difficult to pass. I liked the "S" turns and multi-level track was really fun. There's an adjoining arcade but the prices were pricey. I found the staff to be friendly but focused on their responsibilities.

The FlowRider is AWESOME!!!…read more My wife and I made the trip up from Las Vegas for my birthday over the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend. We booked a surf lesson at 2PM, but due to some timing issues had to move it to 3PM which the team was more than helpful in accommodating. It's hard to believe it can be as cold as the high 20s outside and you're inside catching waves on the FlowRider. The pool area is well heated and the water was warm. There are plenty of grandstands for people to sit and spectate. They have lockers to hold / secure your stuff while you catch waves. They have bathrooms for changing, and showers to clean up after (the only thing I wish they had was more areas in the bathrooms to hang or set your stuff down while you shower or change. Even a small foldaway table would have been helpful). Our lesson was essentially a 60 minute private since my wife and I were the only two in the session. Our instructor John was super friendly, helpful, and informative. He gave us a quick overview and had us riding waves within the first few runs, and if you wiped out (which is pretty painless and fun) he'd have some pointers for you for your next run. We each would do 3-4 runs and then trade off and as long as we had the energy John was at the ready to help catch waves. This was a total five star experience, and I can't wait to do it again! It looks like they also have GA type session where you pay the hourly fee and it's open to the public for everyone to use in turn. However, I'd highly recommend a lesson if it's your first time out. You can also rent either half or whole of the FlowRider by the hour should you have a private event or just want to hone your skills.

Terrible experience at Provo Beach. My cousin ran into an exposed zip tie in the indoor playground…read moreand ended up covered in blood and needing an ER visit. Instead of helping or apologizing mid-crisis, a male employee knelt down and told her, "This is why we don't run," while she was crying and bleeding. Completely insensitive and unprofessional. If running isn't allowed, there should be signs or better supervision. An exposed zip tie in a kids' play area is absolutely unacceptable. Plus, what would you expect?? If it's a KID playground, there should be at least one employee or attendant nearby watching them if running wants to be avoided.

Payson Lakes Campground is beautiful! It is a short drive from SLC, but it feels like a different…read moreworld! This is a popular campground, so you will need to make your reservation well in advance, especially for the nicer/more private sites. I visited on Labor Day weekend, and the campground was full. Lots of kids running around. But our campsite (B20) was very secluded and private, and we had a wonderful stay! The location was close to the bathroom but not too close to our neighbors, which is our favorite combination. The lake was extremely low.. seeing the boat dock was almost comical, as it looked like a high dive over a long stretch of rocks! But it was also sad to see this, as I'm sure the lake was even more beautiful when full. My picture makes the lake look like a tiny swamp, but there was actually room for paddle boarding/kayaking. I didn't go in, as walking through muck to get to the actual water isn't really my thing. But I can see how it would be a fun day for a family with kids. Many of the campsites didn't have a private feel to them, so I would recommend browsing pictures online before choosing your site if you're picky like me. I did an inventory of the most private sites, so few free to msg me for more info. I will be back here for sure!

My review is centered just on the Payson Lake beach site. We had a WONDERFUL day here…read more First thing to note- it is a LONG, windy road in with no cell service! I had no idea it would be that way, but it was a gorgeous drive. It's $10 for the day, on your honor since there was no guard in the booth. Be sure to grab an envelope to stick in your dashboard! The lake and beach area is BEAUTIFUL! Bring your own life jacket, paddle boards, rafts, and kayaks out and enjoy the sunshine. The lake doesn't seem to have much of a current, so it's a great place to float and row around! I believe you can fish as well. You may be able to find a picnic bench or two, but plan on bringing your own seating and overhead coverings, because it is HOT in August! This is definitely a hidden gem in the Uinta National Forest, and we will be back! Enjoy!

Wow! Can't believe I've lived in Utah my entire life and never tried this easy, but beautiful hike!…read moreThanks to ChatGPT for recommending this hike me. Searched up easy, short winter hikes for solo hikers and this popped up, super glad it did! This hike is an absolute must try if you live in Utah county. It is just 1.3 miles round-trip and only took about 15 minutes to get up to the frozen waterfall. The waterfall was absolutely beautiful, all of the ice crystals and trees were stunning. It is pretty slippery this time of year so I would bring hiking poles or hiking boots that have good traction so that you can get down to the waterfall. I unfortunately wore the wrong shoes so I couldn't go all the way down. Would've broke my assWill definitely be doing this again, it's nice that it's so close and such a short easy hike for the winter time!

On Monday, April 7, 2025 (Yesterday), I decided to take advantage of the warmer weather and hike at…read moreBattle Creek Falls. Parking lot: Free Size: Small Bathroom: Yes Men and women Toilet: Regular; water-based. From the parking lot to the waterfall, took 15 minutes, give or take. The trail is slightly incline, some parts more, than others and since I haven't worked out in the past few months, I was slightly out of breath, but nothing extreme before the waterfall. Moreover, there is also a path down to the waterfall, with a log to sit on, and taken in the beautiful waterfall. If one decides to go further up, the path does continue on top of the waterfall, right hand side. This trail is easy and no way of getting lost to the water fall. In additon, If you're looking for more beyond the waterfall, there is a much smaller one shortly ahead, but after that, there is not much to see. A lot of snow and mud, and dry plants. And after the second smaller waterfall, the trail does get challenging because it's all uphill. Unfortunately, I did not make it to the meadows. I came across two hikers who said they did go to meadows and it was ugly right now. I wanted to see for myself and on the way there, the path itself was very ugly, muddy and dry. Henced, I turned back. Overall, family friendly, easy hike, and make sure to bring a hat because a lot of the trail after the waterfall is direct sunlight, no shade.

My daughter had an event here tonight, and wow I'm really impressed with the size of this venue…read more While I only experienced the pool area, it has a lap pool, a lazy river, a few water slides, a rock climbing wall and a smaller kids play area it was quite impressive! The daily fee is $5.50 for kids $6.50 for adults which is pretty impressive and affordable. One thing my daughter complained about, was they kept closing the sliding de area due to poop episodes so that's pretty gross, but I guess at least they close it to treat it?

The wide open grassy areas, the picnic tables, the trees - it was a veritable emerald hidden away from the rest of the craziness along a busy canyon. Those days are gone. South Fork Park is still there. But gone are the days when you could escape the crowds. They've found South Fork. And they're packed in up there every weekend. The facilities are okay. Two pavilions, a big field, lots of picnic tables, a few grills. The bathrooms today were in horrendous shape, and there was more litter than I'm comfortable with. Parking was tough with so many people there, and there were kids crawling out of every corner you could find. The respite comes when you cross the bridge. There are a few tables with fire pits along the trail, and it was there that we found our area and camped out for the afternoon. Some weenies, some s'mores, some beverages. It was a hot day, but the trees provided lots and lots of shade. There are plenty of amenities. In addition to the restrooms and rentable powered pavilion, you've got a volleyball court, water at several spigots throughout, and great access to a little stretch of river. It's not nearly as high and mighty as the Provo proper, so it's a good choice for parents worried about kids near the raging rapids. Truthfully, I'm disappointed to see that the masses have now converged on South Fork Park. There are days when you can still find some peace, but not weekends. And when it's crowded like that it takes its toll on every part of a park that seems to bend a bit under that kind of stress. If you go, take care of it. It's in a gorgeous setting and should be treated well so it stays gorgeous for everyone who enjoys it in the future. And that seems to be a lot of people.
