It was fairly clean and I noticed that the team did a deep clean when it started to slow down so I greatly appreciate that. This place is more affordable than others I've been to around the city. My kids are having a great time here and glad they opened up in this area.

At first I thought, oh man this place is going to be such a tourist trap. It's really not. What I…read morelike about here compared to other "amusement parks" is that it's low stimulation. It's not bright lights, neon colors, or obnoxious vendors in your face. It's simple, humble, incredibly clean, and well kept especially since it's been there since the 50s. It's small enough to enjoy for a few hrs but doesn't take all day. It's definitely made more for kids 10 and under id say. My kids are 3 and 6 and loved it. They were tall enough to ride most of the rides and enjoyed the petting zoo. I felt $19 per person was a decent price and parking was just fine. The demonstrations are well attended. It got busy about 11am but it opens at 9:30 so come early if you want to experience it less busy. The workers seemed to enjoy their jobs. Again, very very clean.

Shows, demos, petting zoo, Dutch village area replicas. Cheese shop. Coffee shop. Some stroomwafels. Much of the items they had at the Dutch Village in downtown Holland. Not worth it for couples without kids. My husband didn't think it was worth the money to go in the end. He's right based on the pics we looked at on Yelp and Google. Some reviews stated it's a total waste of money.

Would be such a cool place if they tweaked the way it is ran just a bit. Their learn to ride…read moreprogram has many people obviously not learning to ride, dominating the turns in the line so kids that are there for their first or second time only get a couple of turns making the price not worth the visit. If they could have a couple cables and a separate line for the true beginners it would make the price much more worth it, and us along with others I know would be more likely to visit many more times. Only one staff member was truly teaching my children how to actually ride, the other girl there was clearly not into the job and just kind of there. The kid that was helping was very impressive and I was thankful that two hours into being there, on their 3rd try that they finally got some sort of direction for their last two tries. Almost 3 hours of being there and kids only got 4 turns, that equated to them literally falling in the water until the other staff member took over. One of the kids in our group got injured and not one staff member asked if she was ok, truly a learning experience for staff to be a little more vigilant and at least pretend to care. Other than these things my kids had a blast and it is such a bummer to know they would not get enough turns to make the hour drive to this facility worth it to come back.

Nice barn for a tourney…read more 2 sheets here, both with ample seating and great acoustics, so that you can yell to your hearts delight and get the attention of your favorite player. Concession stand was fairly priced. Parking was great, but we were here during the January 2024 snow storm, so challenging to keep lanes straight. A few issues: Locker rooms are downstairs and only accessible via stairwell. This was challenging for the boys to get through. There's an elevator labeled for those with accessibility needs only. The entrance has no automatic doors, so challenging to work through traffic there as well. Don't know if it was the weather or just the preference, but the rinks were unusually cold. Many parents opted to stand in the back. (That was probably also for social reasons) Lastly, the lobby could use more seating. I did like the seats by the glass, which gave a nice view of the ice.

I'm at Southside Ice Arena right now. It's 7am on a Sunday and we are in the middle of a squirt…read moretournament. All tournament games prior to this semi final game were at a different rink in the city. This place is FILTHY!!!! The doors were locked and 4 teams of children had to wait at the locked doors for close to a half an hour. So did their parents. We walked in and there is garbage under tables and chairs in the lobby, the rugged areas have popcorn and garbage all over them. The stands have, you guessed it, garbage everywhere.One of the sheets of ice has no paint! And there is a squirt team scheduled to play on it right now. The locker rooms are filthy and full of garbage. The other sheet of ice is tore up- it needs to be zambonied twice. And the concession stand is dark with the cage pulled down. Mind you, there are 4 teams of parents and it is 7am- where's the coffee?! The last time we were here, the rink we were scheduled to play on broke the night before and there was a thick layer of water on the ice. The rink put our kids on to play, hours after they knew it was broke. It was dangerous. The game was aborted but it never should have begun. I'd like to give zero stars! This is easily the worst run rink in the city limits.

Open gym is a winter time saving grace. This is two hours of play time on huge trampolines, a foam pit, a huge floor, a bunch of traditional gymnastics equipment. Kids are safe to play under the careful watch of instructors. The instructors are keen on the rules and very attentive. I have also notice attendance is capped to prevent chaos. Going deeper, my crew checked out the classes. WOW. Here priceless confidence building, self esteem, and motorskill development are taught. Oh yes...and gymnastics too!! The classes are taught to constantly to take children to the next level, helping them reach their full potiential. My favorite thing about For the Kidz is that safety and the happiness/safety of the children is the absolute priority here. The kids also have a blast!!! Also, if you wait in the lobby...you are in for a real treat! The gym hosts some very competitive trampoline and tumbling gymnast!
