Kid likes all things science and Legos so we took him here. Great experience. They have this climbing thing that's explaining the water cycle. It was really cool! The price wasn't bad, it's cheaper if you're members. There were employees everywhere happy to ask questions if you had any. It's a neat place. Lots of rooms to explore. Very interactive.

This time there weren't any parking spaces in the lot. We went around twice, but no cigar. We ended up finding a place on the street across from the back entrance. We lucked out. I also love that it's not as busy as kings beach. This time it was packed, but we still found 2 great spots. One in the shade and another in the sun right there on the sand and steps away from the lake. They offer boat rentals: Pedal boats and canoes or kayaks, I wasn't close to tell, it was one or the other. They also have 2 lifeguards on duty. If you get the munchies or are thirsty thy have a snack-shack. Unfortunately they were out of hot dogs. And lastly they have pretty clean bathrooms. 2 stalls in one and a family bathroom. They also have tennis courts. And a Basketball court and play structure for the kiddos. If you want a picnic table you can reserve one or just arrive early. If you want pick of spots arrive early. If you want a parking spot luck out when someone leaves or arrive early. Summer time is a prime time to come. It's $12 per person during the summer. If you come before the 4th of July the snack-shack is closed, but it's free to enter and there is plenty of parking. We usually come before the 4th of July so we were surprised to see some many people and a packed parking lot, but we totally get it, It was a perfect day. In the 80's not to hot or cold. They have a swimming area which the lifeguards patrol. It's pretty shallow near shore. If you bring your paddle board like many people do you can do this outside the swimming area. You are allowed to bring inflatables. Someone had a giant unicorn and another party had a giant round party float. I'd return, but I'd go earlier in the day if I come in the summer time to ensure we get a parking space. We arrived around 1pm and I believe it opens around 10 or 11am. So we weren't so late. There were just a lot of early birds.

My daughter's like a monkey, you can never get her off the climbing wall. So we opted for the all day pass. My husband was also able to belay for her the whole time. SkyJump Trampoline: $12 for 5 minutes. You wouldn't think 5 minutes would be long enough, but it's the right amount of time. Especially if yours is a toddler or a 3yo strapped in a harness attached to bungees! Or if yours is an 11yo trying to flip herself over but can't. All in all, safe and fun. The employees at both activities were professional and great with the kids. Next time, we'll have to try the ropes course!

They have a very affordable monthly/yearly membership. Right now they are showing $60 a month or $500They have a good process to make sure that you are safe and able to work the machines. If you need help, they have workshops and classes. Also there are quite a few experience people hanging around, with a wealth of knowledge that are very helpful.

Wandering down the trails to find all the little vignettes was fun and then we enjoyed meeting all the animals and feeding them treats. Hard to pick any favorites amongst the animals but the little goats were a big hit since they were so easy to interact with. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and we appreciated the popcorn, cider and water snacks. I'm not sure if we actually found all the items on the "treasure hunt" but they kindly allowed my granddaughter to pick a "prize" anyway and she loved the purple magic wand she chose. One difficulty is that there is no restroom, not even a portapotty. Given the location that is not good as it is quite a distance to get to any place with a public restroom. Another is that there is no way to contact the venue by phone if you have questions. I almost didn't go because I was a bit late and the confirmation I received said that we had to be there at our specific time with no ability to change it. Fortunately my son was able to email them and ask if I could catch up to them on the trail if I arrived a bit late and they responded quickly enough that I didn't have to turn around and go back home (my drive there was two hours).

My child immediately asked to go back for other event on the drive home. It was a really well done event, especially for the price.

I went with cousins who live in Carson City, Nevada to check out this place for a future birthday party location for the really young youngsters in my extended family. Took several of those youngsters with us to get their opinions. At the end, their opinion was to know when could they come back and play some more. My opinion was that on the drive home, all the youngsters were immediately quietly napping from all their playing excitement and fun running around. Service staff graciously answered all our questions promptly which made a good first impression. They suggested buying the annual membership, which we did since they have a wide and interesting variety of weekly events constantly changing. Has average prices Place is well-thought out. Was a large playroom / plaground with some smaller themed rooms so was easy to keep an eye on the children.
