“Nice place, very clean and everything was working well when we went. Our kids were two/three years old and they loved it, pretty much perfect for that age group or slightly older. Nice way to kill a couple hours during the winter!”

“My son loves coming here. He loves the cars, trains, slide, bounce castle, but most of all the books. It's nice to be able to sit back and watch him run around and know he's safe.”

“This place is great for younger children to play. Cost is fairly reasonable. Staff has always been wonderful..my only complaint was with the worker today. She kept cleaning up the toys which in reality sounds like a good thing but when my grandson is sitting at the table playing blocks and the worker is picking up those same blocks/tiles putting them away it was a little frustrating. We also at one point heard her mentioning about how messy everything is. There are multiple 1 to 3 year old children playing so its definitely going to get messy as they loose interest in 2.3 seconds. Overall the place is fantastic and I love bringing my grandsons here to play!”
