    Amazing local park with lots of activities. There are trails for casual walks. The pool is so much fun and you should definitely go there. $10 per person is worth the cost. The miniature golf is great and only $7. This is an amazing resource for the community.

    Great place to mini golf with kids! Cold concessions and 18 fun holes with different challenges! The water features throughout the course weren’t turned on which was a bummer in the heat. But we still had a great time!

    Honestly, the mini-golf options in this area are pretty disappointing. This course is OK, but a lot of the water features weren't running, the course is not that creative, and one of the greens was wrinkled. Worst, the day was almost ruined by a very rude county worker at the outset (on June 16 at 2:45 p.m.). I walked in to where I thought I should pay, and the guy behind the counter in a very dirty shirt immediately said, "You can answer her questions," talking to a guy off to the side, instead of "How may I help you?" I said, "I don't have questions. I just need admission." He said, "We're closed." I said, beginning to panic, because I had organizing a corporate outing for that day, "I called your number and spoke to the Parks Authority, and both stated that you opened today from 10 a.m. on." He said, "The information on Google is wrong. The pool opens tomorrow." I said, "I don't need the pool. We're here for mini-golf." He told me, "Go over there," which I thought was a kind of rude way of providing me with the information on where to pay. Adding insult to injury, as soon as I stepped out, he started saying to the guy next to him, "You know, rude people like that ..." so I went back to confront him, saying, "No, you're the rude one!" Instead of apologizing, he began to berate me for ruining his day. Wow. I was shaken and played badly for the first several rounds as a result. I hope he finds a more suitable line of work, because customer service is not the right fit.

    Lots to do and the ropes course under construction looks pretty dope! Two hole in one's for my son his first time out so he is pretty excited to go back for more golf AND water slides.

    The mini golf is fun! Each one is about 2 par and have some sort of obstical. Fun to play, right next to the water park. Didn’t have any trouble parking. Highly recommend!

    Great local place, clean. 3 pools, splash area and 2 water slides. Lifeguards at every pool and attentive. A pool for everyone one from baby to senior. Family and I had a great time

    We went to the uptown climb course and it was a lot of fun. Parking is easy and the staff members are extremely helpful.

    Customer service was great! Keke, our attendant, was so accommodating and helpful. It was a pleasure to have her assist our group. There wasn't much to the pool, I was kind of expecting more....and it was really shallow. I wish there was more to do in the baby pool, but the splash pad was really nice. Great for kids.

    Fabulous place to have a mini-golf or water park birthday party! Easy to reserve, nice picnic table areas, clean, and terrific customer service. Lots of parking, some shaded. The kids always have a blast here! And the park manager was very kind in allowing us to reschedule for free after our first date got rained out. The pool is nice, clean, and full of water features. There is mix of ages, attentive lifeguards, a strict number admitted at any given time, and it felt safe for the kids. Lots of shade and deck chairs for lounging.

    This park has a nice pool for kids as well as another pool to swim laps. The batting cages are popular, but frequently some are not working.

  • 4/5 Dhru B. 1 year ago on Google
    Really fun place! Took my 12 year old nephew here for mini golf, and we had a blast. Relatively well taken care of, 18-hole course. Only gave it 4 stars because the water wasn't turned on for most of the course and there were a lot of mosquitoes in the standing water. Otherwise it was a lot of fun. Next time have to check out the pool/waterpark, the batting cages, and the obstacle course.

  • 1/5 Abbey Blue M. 1 year ago on Google
    Park looks great, but the batting cages don't work. The staff still lets you buy the tokens and waste your money watching an empty arm swing round and round. We were literally getting no more than 3 balls per token, the rest were empty. If the machine doesn't work unless an attendant is running it then you should have an attendant stationed there. From the window right next to our cage we can see at least 5-6 sitting at the desk drinking soda & chatting. When I inquired about the machine I was told it was old & if I wanted to sneak into the park overnight to break it then they would appreciate it. Great attitude to match the awful equipment.

    Something for everyone, all ages. Batting cages, climbing and agility for the entire family (best for 4' or taller or agile/active younger kid with adult supervision), water area more of a splash pad with wading pool and 2 water slides, but good enough to keep cool on a hot day. Concessions available in Waterpark. Mini golf course with 18 holes with variety of obstacles.

    Loved playing mini golf here. Such a fun, old-fashioned course. It was great family fun. The laughter together was priceless.

  • 5/5 Felicity G. 10 months ago on Google
    Went for the batting cages, and they're great! There's plenty to do in the area, something for everyone in the family. And the prices are pretty good, too. Definitely worth checking out!!

  • 5/5 Hector M. 10 months ago on Google
    Great park for the kiddos, we ended up only in the mini golf area... but we saw other areas with ton of smiles!

  • 5/5 Erick C. 8 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    First, the line was one third the length of the competitions. The price was extremely competitive. No overcrowding; including other excellent attractions on campus. You will find the Restrooms and showers adiquat. There is plenty of seating in and out including a reasonably sized tanning lawn and picnic area . And you children will have an amazing experience in the Sun or Shade. See you there!😁 PS. Parking is amazing & staff were professional and just generally nice friendly people...
