First time here, and it was awesome! I got invited for a team party and I do have to say, this place is worth every penny for a party or just to do something around the Colorado Mills area. The staff were super friendly and were patrolling the area well, tons of slides and other things to do, place is big, and plenty of things to eat at their food court. The prices for food and admission were decent for a play place and the pizza and sodas were great right after getting out some energy on the slides. Overall, I had an amazing time having the party here, and, of course, everyone had fun! Highly recommend this place for a party or to get some energy out!

1st time going. My son is special needs and had a blast. Special shout out to Riley C for being such an amazing young lady towards my son and giving him the best 1st visit. He gave her a hundred stars rating. We will be coming back.

My 4yr twins loved this place! As their mom, I did get scared, but they were safe, and there were people around to help them when needed. We were one of the first families in, and my kids had some time without lines. It got pretty busy, but no one was waiting too long to go down a slide. It's definitely worth the groupon. I was a little annoyed that I had to buy/rent the slide socks when they were exactly the same as the trampoline socks.... but they have to get toy somehow. 🤣

Fun but avoid the busy times. Our teenagers had fun but weren't super excited. Definitely a great place for elementary age. One unexpected thing was that the slides feel a lot steeper than you initially think! We went during a very busy time though which made it less fun. The temperature was warm. Mix that with a couple hundred pairs of sweaty feet and you'll end up holding your breath a lot. The yellow launcher slide was a lot of fun though!
