My two year old loved the train ride, tractor ride, and carousel. And we also fed the goats, sheep, and alpaca. The map is easy to follow and even though we spent two hours ago we easily could have spent another two here! They have a cute little gift shop too. I saw they were setting up for a wedding here too which was cool! Great spot for families I totally recommend.

AWESOME Petting Zoo…read more... Took my kids to a petting zoo this fall an this company was there and they were Excellent. You get to go inside and pet and feed them. My kids are real animal lovers. My youngest wants to work in a zoo or be a vet and she asked the two running the zoo that day all kinds of questions. They were knowledgeable on the animals. The animals looked very healthy. they even put a chicken named Chill on her head for a picture. Thank you Friendly Farms for such a memorable time.

The VR games were a hit, the rock climbing and of course the course. They had an adult area with mini bowling and pool tables. Drinks were beer and wine and soft drinks. Food menu was to be expected.

Then there are three little play room as a pizza bakery, grocery store, and barber shop. Plenty of varied of toys for all ages and different types. I do like how this place allows outside food and drinks. But only away from the carpet. And you must sanitize your hands before and after play. Overall, I am a huge fan of this location and will be coming back soon

Went here a few weeks ago with my husband and our four year old son and had a blast!!!…read more We went on a weekend day not long after opening and lines were super short. We stayed for 1.5 hours. It was very clean, and we think that it could be a good option for a future bday party. Our son tried every single slide. The only slide that we did not like (us parents) was the one that you went straight down and then off into a pad. It immediately gave me a headache and felt like it messed up my back, neck, and chest.

I have had this place on my "to do" list for a while now and I decided 2026 was the year I was…read moregoing to go--I recruited my teenage daughter, a guest of her choice, and my boyfriend and we made the long trek (1h, 12 mins) for their "After hours" session from 8p-10p. The drive was long, but not stop and go. Traffic was lighter than I anticipated, but we couldn't use the restroom because we were too early. (I solved that issue by popping over to a local store AND making a purchase--don't come at me lol) Once it was the appropriate time to check in, the process was a little slow to start, but that's why we checked in 15 minutes before our slide time started, right? We got the grippy socks, the mandatory t-shirts for the glow time ($7.99, not bad at all!), and rented a locker ($7 for 3 hours) to keep our valuables safe. Extra clothes went back into the car, but we locked up phones, wallets, etc. I was a little nervous when we arrived because there was a police car practically pulled up to the door and two, I believe, police officers inside the facility. They remained for, I believe, a majority of our slide time, but just walking around and keeping an eye on things. The slides were more intimidating than I anticipated! There was one yellow launch slide that took me a while to work my nerve to go down--it LAUNCHES you! It ended up being over before I could think about it too long. My favorite slide was the nice, slow, green slide entitled "Cowabunga" and the long blue one in the middle of the facility. There was a white one nestled in between a yellow zig zag and a 4 lane racer slide that was called "Avalanche"--the worker asked, "Oh? You're going on this one?" like I was too old or something. His last words to me were "Hold on tight!"--he was right! The facility was clean, the equipment looked well taken care of less the missing zip line--that was a little disappointing. There are a good number of slides--enough that you have a choice, but not too many that you feel overwhelmed. The staff was young, but helpful, and not even too distracted by the football game that was on the arena televisions. (It was a big game for people around here!) The cafe was open for 45 minutes during our 2 hour session, but we just got some ICEEs to combat the warmth and sweat that we felt. I did not use the bathroom so I cannot comment on that. I appreciate them having a water fountain accessible because the stairs to go up and down are comically large. I am, like, 5'8" and I was taking giant steps to go down the slides. I felt safe, entertained, and like I had good value in the ticket price, even with the mandatory, yet, understandable purchase of the grippy socks and the neon shirt for the glow time. I would definitely go back if someone else wanted to experience it or I wanted to work on my thunder thighs without feeling like it's a workout. I wish there was a location closer, because it was nice to have a place that catered to older kids. The little kids have PLENTY of options.

Such an absolutely great program for kids!…read more The instructor lead program puts focus on being brave, strong and confident. They really make it so fun that they hardly know they are working on life skills at the same time they are having fun. Each week is different and never boring. Even in the same class they switch things up often. It's incredibly clean, great for baby walkers to big kids. More than anything the coaches are always so involved and caring. Rachel and Declan both have embraced our family with kindness and respect. They really are focused on each child in the class. Coming to kidstrong was one of the best things that we have done!

Enjoyed the cliff walls of Buffalo Rock and the shallow waters of some side passages. We paddled for 5 hours, covering 8 miles total. After we were done we headed to charming, historic downtown Utica for drinks and dinner at Skoog's Pub & Grill in North Utica, IL. I was impressed with the logistics and operation of the kayaking experience, from the guide* to the equipment and online booking process. *Full disclosure, the guide was my twin sister, but I am being objective...seriously.

I have mixed feelings about this kayak tour company. I signed up because although I'm a very…read morecapable and seasoned kayaker, I didn't know this river and I like learning about the ecosystems and local wildlife. For this reason I like having tour guides. Going up the river was fine. Coming back went a bit sour. I went as slow as I was capable of paddling or not paddling, but apparently it was too fast for the preference of our tour guide. I was barely touching the water with my paddle. I have no idea how I could have gone any slower. It wasn't humanly possible. After shouting at me several times, he took to chasing me down and ramming my kayak so it'd spin in circles. Would I rent a kayak here and kayak the river alone? Yes. Would I personally use a tour guide here? No I wouldn't. Would I recommend? If you're a family with little kids or a drunk sorority house, absolutely. If you know what you're doing, just go it alone. You'll probably enjoy it more. Edit: If the tour guide had concerns for group safety, he could have said so. Although ramming my kayak with his seems to be a bit of a conflict as far as my safety goes. It was an unprofessional approach when he could have simply explained why he needed me to slow down
