  • 5/5 Luke D. 2 years ago on Google
    Outstanding place with a beautifully antiquated out of time feel. Have gone here off and on since I was a child, and it still has retained that wonderfully magic and wholesome environment. Perfect place for families, picnics, arcade game marathons and has an adjacent pool and picnic grounds. Very much reasonably priced, with long time staple games being putt putt, golf t off, batting cages and go carts. A really beautiful locale services it justice, and you’re not far from the renowned soaring capital of America, with the Harris Hill soaring museum and gliders. You very likely will see their aviation display in the skies above. Fantastic management and service. Highly recommended.

    I took my 10 year old grandson. We had a blast driving the go-carts! He enjoyed the arcade and enjoyed ice cream as well. There is a mini golf, which we did not play and a driving range. Free admission, go-carts were $7/each for a 4 minute drive, but worth it - we rode a few times.

    So I usually come up here for the pool with the kids. My kids love the diving boards. I wish there was a deeper section to swim in without doing laps. They keep it clean and so many lifeguards. I also love the overlook!

    Lots of space, easy to find what was needed, clean. Great experience! As I always remembered it, from early childhood!

    More expensive than I remember, but none the less fun I suppose. But what use to cost fifty bucks for a half day of fun for four people, is a hundo now at least. But Ill always have a sentimental feeling for the place cuz I grew up going there as a kid, before inflation destroyed everything including entertainment... Still love the place though. Great place for families, if you got the extra scratch. 👍

    The playground is very unique. All of the areas are graded with an age appropriate scale and it's designed that adults can also play and be interactive with their children. They have a couple cute safety swings with harnesses (dinosaur themed) and even 2 swings that are attached to baby "bucket" swings with metal bars so you can swing together. Very unexpected. Also kid sized "card tables" as I call them (like picnic tables) so they can sit around to eat and socialize and probably judge other people.

    The picnic areas were very nice. They were litter free, and well maintained. Take your own bag for trash. We took the kids to ride the carnival type kiddie rides. These are definitely for the young, like under 6 to 8 kids. The ride times were long enough to feel you got what you paid for. Parents were allowed in as needed for the toddlers. Then we tried our the pool. The young adults and children went in. The old folks that weren't swimming sat outside the pool enclosure because they charge to go in regardless of whether you swim. That was the biggest issue I had while at Harris hill. Overall, a pleasant day. We'll be going back.

    Fair price for yonger kids my son is 3 1/2. Other than the go carts . Just need to bring cash cause they do not except credit or debt cards.

  • 5/5 Paul K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to got for a day trip. It is a small park but it has enough attractions to keep kids occupied for a good part of the day.

  • 5/5 Andrew G. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love this place. Affordable trip with the family. There's 6 rotating kids amusement rides, mini-golf, a really good arcade and a cafe with a few simple options for food like hotdogs, nachos and soft pretzels. We'll definitely be coming back here with my family again!

  • 5/5 Chris Brittany abi and Emi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Arcade, mini golf, go carts, kids rides, pool, playground, picnic area, snack bar, and shooting and batting ranges. All up above Elmira NY!! End your trip with ice cream while overlooking the entire area. There really is something for everyone here, and a family favorite of ours!!

  • 5/5 Crawford M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great Family experience! The staff are super friendly and great to talk to. Grew up going up there as a kid and will continue to Go forever, and take my future kids!

  • 4/5 Frances S. 1 year ago on Google
    Rides are really cute for 7 & under. Arcade was fun. Go-Karts good. Miniature golf is challenging but course is confusing & definitely not elderly or disability friendly.

  • 5/5 Nick W. 11 months ago on Google
    Such a cool place. Go carts, driving range, mini-golf, arcade and rides for the kids...so much to do and something for everyone. Really enjoyed the arcade!!

    Great place for the kids and adults! Well maintained.

  • 5/5 Scott S. 11 months ago on Google
    Perfect for my kids. Kids rides are great for my preschool and kindergarten.

    Great fun for the whole family took the kids up for some winter fun

  • 4/5 LordCreepl (. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice place, great for family outings and barbecues, provided entertainment (must pay for) such as putt putt, kiddie rides, arcade machines, and tee off games, can bring own drivers but must buy ball buckets (9 for small 12 for large which is about 3 times as many balls) and a park for kids of almost all ages and a pool! Only issue is there is nowhere listing if the pool is open (that I've seen) unless you travel to the pool to look itself, but great place nonetheless! Can see gliders quite often and is beautiful during the spring and summer months! Soaring Capital of America!

  • 5/5 Mason E. 10 months ago on Google
    There is so much charm to this hidden gem of upstate NY. Kiddie rides, driving Range, and a fun miniture golf course are just a few things to expect. A nice blast from the past feeling awaits guests looking to unwind, picnic, swim and have a good time in a safe and clean space, a big one at that. Go and enjoy an afternoon at Harris Hill!

  • 5/5 Maureen H. 10 months ago on Google
    Great for a family day out. Free parking and plenty of it. Lots of different things to do. Picnic tables and grills throughout the grounds. Pool is really nice. $3.00 for the locals and $3.50 for out of town people. Kids are only $2.00.

  • 1/5 Harmony T. 11 months ago on Google
    Not at all what I expected. The idea is cool but the prices are ridiculous. The arcade games were great until the points vs tickets didn't add up. The card idea ruins the whole experience with the games. Put put was very confined. For years I've heard it was a "great place" might go back for the park and the scenery but that is it.

  • 5/5 Brandon B. 11 months ago on Google
    This place is a living time capsule. Lots of old school games. Some newer ones. Rides for the little kids. They clearly take a lot of pride in this place. Was amazed at all the "I love that place" and "I went there growing up" comments I received when I shared my pics. It is a perfect example of what family fun should be.

  • 5/5 Hannah 10 months ago on Google
    Go-karts were so fun. The individuals I brought had a wonderful time! Decent cafe selection. Cash-only, but there is an ATM.
