About McFarland Community Center
Based on all available customer reviews, McFarland Community Center does not offer any identifiable unique value proposition for parents seeking a safe, clean, or professionally run family entertainment venue, especially for children's activities like Christmas events. The reviews consistently highlight severe and fundamental operational failures.
What parents should know
Summarized from real visitor reviews.
Insider tips
- A reviewer sarcastically suggests to 'bring a broom' if visiting, due to the dangerous amount of broken glass in the parking lots.
Good to know before you go
- Families prioritizing child safety and a secure environment, due to serious allegations of violence, lack of protection, and staff misconduct.
- Anyone seeking a clean, odor-free, and well-maintained facility, given reports of foul smells and dangerous debris.
- Parents expecting professional, respectful, and unbiased staff interactions.
- If you require fair and transparent pricing for venue rentals or services, as rates are described as 'ridiculous'.
- Do not trust positive reviews, as there are direct allegations of management asking for fake reviews.
- Value
- Pricing for venue or chair rental is described as 'really expensive' and 'ridiculous' by a reviewer who claims facilities are rarely lent out. No specific pricing for Christmas events or general admission is mentioned.
- Safety
- Explicitly stated failure of protection: 'MPD owns the place they will not protect your children'.
What parents say
"The workers here covered up my daughter being hit by her friend driving over 50 miles per hour in a residential area, and when I comforted her she pulled a gun, threw finger signs, started twerking and called the police to lie about drawing her weapon. This place is not safe for children, even though MPD owns the place they will not protect your children. Here are photos of this worker exhibiting unprofessional behavior during a time of watching other’s children. Need I say more."

"This needs to be said, if you cannot conduct yourself professionally. Just start your own business. Why would you pick up the phone, only to still have a conversation on your cell phone; clearly you don’t mind people hearing you busy and no tend to duties in your job description. Make it make sense."

"This is a great space, however the broken liquor bottles are dangerous. It's not an issue to drink, but people you can't take it with you? Or perhaps in one of the trash receptacles provided at the park. When you all visit bring a broom because the glass is out of control in the parking lots. I called the community center and will call back tommrow. Let's take care of what We have!!"
