"Great Indoor Fun for Kids! This is a fantastic place to take kids! The indoor play area is large and full of fun climbing structures and slides that kept our kids entertained the entire time. There are plenty of chairs for adults throughout the space, which is great for supervising comfortably. I’d recommend adding a few more tables — we had to wait about an hour before one opened up so we could eat. Also, the plastic slides in the center could use a cleaning and are a bit slow, but the kids still had a great time. Overall, it’s a safe, affordable, and fun place for families. We’ll definite"

"We are on an 11 hour layover in Denver with two children. I got myself a car for the afternoon and googled things to do with my kids. This place is fantastic, huge, has an excellent cafe (with peets coffee, which is my favorite). There is a full trampoline park, obstacle courses, a hige playground with life sized animal statues. I'm a bit of an art need and was very impressed with the animal paintings on the wall in the jungle Gym. It's a must if you are a local and perfect if you are looking for something to do between flights with children."

"This is a great place to take kids. It's an indoor play area where they have all sorts of different climbing areas and slides. There are plenty of chairs for the adults to sit on throughout the area. I would recommend a few more tables. We did have to wait about an hour before we found a free table before we could eat but that wasn't a problem. The kids were very entertained with running all over. The plastic slides in the center area could use a good cleaning because they aren't slick but the kids didn't really mind but they are slow sliding down them. Overall it's a safe large area for kid"
