Insider tips
- Bring your own hot food or plan to eat at nearby restaurants; Wildwood Tavern is specifically recommended (R3).

Good to know before you go
- Families with toddlers seeking a robust, well-equipped, and age-appropriate play zone (R2).
- Visitors who prioritize a clean and sanitary environment (R1, R4).
- Rainy days if you wish to avoid significant crowds (R5).
- Parents expecting constant and active staff supervision of play areas (R4, R5).
- The facility is widely reported as dirty, with dirt, mud, and dust everywhere, including uncleaned trampolines and old equipment (R1, R4).
- Crowds
- The venue 'gets pretty crowded on rain days' (R5).
- Value
- Pricing is $12 for children and $6 for toddlers (R3). One reviewer found these prices reasonable and 'worth the money' (R3), while another felt it was 'not worth the money' even with a Groupon (R1). A parent of an 18-month-old felt $20 was too much for an hour, given the limited toddler-specific facilities (R2). The value seems highly dependent on the child's age and expectations.
- Food
- No hot food is available for purchase; only a small selection of snacks is sold (R3, R4).
- Accessibility
- No specific accessibility accommodations were mentioned in the reviews.
- Safety
- **Concerns:** Lack of a visible safety video (R1). Cleaning materials left in areas easily accessible to children (R1). No instructors or staff supervising play, leading to unsupervised interactions among children (R4). Insufficient staff to manage separation of older and younger children in play areas (R5).
What parents say
"One word, DIRTY! Everything everywhere was just dirt and all equipment was old. The smell was horrible I am not sure if the ventilation system is not working or wasn’t powerful enough. The place is not worth the money even though I got them from Groupon but still not worth it. There was no safety video playing in the designated area. Not very pleasant experience for both the kids and I. For some reason all cleaning materials were all over the place and kids can reach them easily!"

"This review is for parents of toddlers. I visited expecting to find a designated toddler zone, as their website mentioned one, but I couldn’t find any pictures beforehand. Since Sky Zone has a great toddler section, I assumed this place would offer something similar, but I was disappointed. The toddler area was extremely limited—I took a picture to show exactly what was available. The toy in the picture was broken, so really the only thing available was that little tree house thing. My daughter is 18 months old but tall for her age, so the slide on that thing was useless. I essentially paid $2"

"This place is very fun. The staff are easy to interact with, and the equipment is clean. The children had a lot of fun. There were plenty of places to sit. The prices are reasonable; $12 for children $6 for toddlers. Parents are able to get on the equipment with their little ones and enjoy themselves. Definitely worth the trip and worth the money. Their only con is they don't have any hot food to order; only snacks for sale. But, there are good restaurants nearby. I recommend Wildwood Tavern: awesome staff and delicious food."
