Here are a couple of reasons why: 1. The courts are not side by side, so you don't have the distraction of the refs whistle blowing in another game and your players stopping because they're not sure who blew it. 2. The floor surface is very good. The floors are wood and well maintained so you don't have kids slipping all the time. 3. The concession stand options are as good as any place I've been. Prices are pretty standard. 4. Only mark against this place is that on some courts there is only one scoreboard and it is behind the benches--good for fans, not for players or coaches. Overall, recommended!

My best friend has been coming here with his kids for years and I just went with the kids this past…read moreweekend. First of all I have lived in Crystal Lake for 8 years now and I had no idea this place existed. I'm always looking for activities to do with the kids and a rock climbing gym should be no exception. My buddy had two guest passes for my kids to try out the gym for the day and I had to rent shoes and a climbing harness for my kids, and this was absolutely fair as they didn't have the necessary gear to climb. The employee gave us the gears and gave us a brief safety run down of what to do and where to go, simple enough. The rest of the time was just them climbing and playing. We started off on the Auto-belay/Tope-rope Room side as the kids wanted to get comfortable with climbing first. I have a 10 year old and a 5 year old and the 10 year old had no issues attaching herself to the auto-belay but the 5 year old had issues and I had to help him out every time to connect and disconnect himself. Then they wanted to go on the "expert" side where there are no safety belays. This room is surprisingly large and kids climbing section was cool as heck along with hidden a room for climbing. The kids really enjoyed this side of the room. Overall, I'm glad my buddy invited us over to North Wall Rock Climbing Gym as it gave us an activity to do inside and quite frankly it was just fun. It's an easy going gym and kids can just climb and have fun and hang out. I'll be taking my kids here more often now that I know that this place exists!

Do not recommend. My son spent 2 weeks in this camp. While camp is in a beautiful area, it didn't…read morefit. He was not allowed to call or talk to us parents at all, we had no connection to hear from him personally. Camp directors make sure kid will only write 1 happy letter per week, so that even if there are issues, you will only find out when the child is back. My son is a great normal quiet kid yet he was bullied there and we had no control over it ... This camp Is a hit or miss. Also, directors use shady tactics of making kids spend pocket money (that they insist kids need to have) on stuff they don't need. Like my son brought home t-shirt and blanket and something else they basically forced him to buy. I tried to return with no luck.

The counselors refused to notify parents that she was really sick. They told her that she was home sick and that is why she wants to call home. My daughter is 14 years old and very independent, Swift Nature camp management refused to contact parents, they did not care. She was really sick and they gave her throat medicine. From our point of view this action was unacceptable. It showed that all they care is business. My daughter suffered so much that she came home crying and very sick.

I'm docking a few stars because they let way too many people into the petting zoo area at one time, especially when they only have a few goats to pet. I also docked a star because the walk over to the playground and picnic table area is unnecessarily long because they have the shortcut path blocked off.

It is a very good small zoo with about 15 outdoor enclosures; a half-dozen enclosures in the barn, and 8 or so exhibits in a separate building. During the busier times, there are keeper talks or events every hour for different animals. Apparently you can feed goats, llamas, etc... for $1.50. We went on a weekday in late February and the desk wasn't open. Yet... there were only a few other visitors in the zoo - and so it was very easy to see everything. They have pony rides as well. If you have a child under the age of 10 - I could see spending 2 hours here when it isn't winter. We spent just under an hour and saw everything and took our time.
