    Trampolines
    Taylor N.

    Took about 35 students on a field trip to Dezerland. There was plenty of parking. We got there at about 1030 on a Saturday morning. Checked all the kids in and by 1100, we were inside on the trampolines. The students enjoyed it. Even me in my big age. Lol! We moved over go the skating rink where I realized that 90% of my students couldn't skate. Lol! There were plenty of supports to keep the kids balanced. The staff was pretty attentive. They even played music that the students enjoyed. Receiving and returning skates was pretty easy. We also made our way over to the arcade which was really fun. I love an arcade. They had a SpongeBob virtual game and I was in love with it. Lastly, we had lunch. Pizza, chicken tenders and some chips. Overall the food was ok. I was just disappointed with the size of the slices of pizza. Students received 2 slices of pizza BUT it was definitely one slice cut in half. Overall, it was a good time. Kids and adults will enjoy it.

    I brought 4 kids only one machine works. They wanted to play together both swiped and game one played for one so they ended up playing alone

    Unfortunately, this business is not ready for full service. First there is really no directions on where to go and get started. If you follow the signs there is either no one there or you need to somewhere else to get started. We get to the ticketing area and I figure out there are passes with various activities verses pay per play. So before I confirm my card charge I ask to have it switched from one hour play for 4 to a pass. To work this work they short me $2. Oh well. We go to the VR games, the motorcycle game my kiddos identified on the sign no longer exists. They ask to play the skii game there are two station neither works. The flight game is shut off. One roller coaster game is working of the two. We actually left not using one of the tickets. On a Saturday at 4pm they have ran out of food and then magically restock but still managed to get the order wrong. We went to order and were told there's no pizza only fries. There is also no menu available. The place is not busy and only open 4 hours so far today. Of the three set ups we saw for food service only one was open and it said 21 & up only. The cashier at the bar (only food option available) apologized repeatedly stating he was flustered. He finally took our order (2 pizza pies, 6 fries, 6 sodas) and asked us if we could come pay once the food was ready so he could get through the remaining customers. When the food came we got chicken tenders instead of pizza. I told them it wasn't our order the cashier looked defeated and I have 4 kids ready to eat. I call the server back and tell him just leave the chicken. We get food no check. Room temperature Chicken tenders, 5 minutes later some fries, 3 minutes later some more fries, 2 minutes later sodas. We wait no one comes back to us. I go back to the bar the cashier is gone and it's the general manager working cash register. She is flustered too it appears but faking it best she can. She skipped us twice but I still waited. She ask how can she help is I state I already ate and never paid. She is shock and thanks us for being honest. She stated she is going to run the video back to see the cashier miss this. Uh ok. As per the general manager (Johana), cashier was ill so she sent him on a break. She even told me his medical condition which I know is inappropriate. But considering the condition I don't know if a 15 minute break was most appropriate and hope he is truly ok. I get the receipt $12 each for chicken tenders I didn't order and really only took to leave the cashier alone! And we are pretty sure this chicken came from the local grocery store's hot food section. I advise her this is unacceptable at this point. I tell her about the VR zone, over hearing staff radioing each other about the skating rink having concerns, the service concerns which I know she is aware of because she tried to briefly assist the cashier when we were trying to order. I tell her at this point a partial refund is most appropriate. She offers the two pizzas we never received ($26 total), I remind her we have eaten what we could and not interested in eating more as noted by the food left on the table. She asks for my contact information so she can provide me some coupons for my next visit. I advise her I can't use coupons for a place I don't intend to return to. She then offers tickets to activities today that I already paid for. She then goes back to the coupons and states so she can ensure we have vip service upon our return. I advise her she does not have the facilities to do that and I again don't plan to return nor will I recommend anyone else to come here. After speaking to the general manager, we went to the arcade and the attached pictures are games we tried to play but did not work. Im sure there are more. I saw some kids swipe their cards and the games not start although credits were taken off their cards. It happened with one of my kiddos and as soon as the staff was notified they knew exactly which machine. Why not put up signs and not rip the kids off? The idea for Dezerland is great but again they are not ready be full service. The kart area was decent, a little slow paced, more of a drive not a race. Staff at each area really tried a hand or two at decent customer service. This place is just not up to par to be fully functional and they should wait until they are.

    I won't be back. The place is smaller than I thought over all. A lot of games in the arcade didn't work. Some of the ones that did work took my credits but didn't work. The food was trash as well. The hot dog was smaller than the bun in length and the nachos just sucked. The go carts say adult and kid carts. I paid for the go carts on a different side from where the go carts are located. When I got to the go carts I found out that the one big track is actually two tracks for adults and kids. One half is adult and the other half is kids. That kids and adults don't race on the same track. I then asked for my money back because I paid for 6 people 3 races each ($255.00). I wanted us to all race each other. Instead I was told no refunds even though none of the races had started yet. It wasn't even time to line up to get the gear on. So I don't see why I couldn't get my money back. This place knows they scamming you on the track. That's why the track is not explained to you or noted any where about kids/vs adults or that the track is divided in half.

    Bowling in arcade area. Only one was working out of four.

    This place has a lot of potential but need some upgrades. I purchased a deal from groupon, that included mini golf, arcade, and VR. At checkin I was told the mini golf wasn't closed, luckily the girl was able to substitute that with an extra VR. The VR was okay but need an major upgrade. A lot of the things weren't working. The workers in the VR area wasn't too friendly. After doing the VR, my group went to the arcade area. The workers there were very helpful and friendly. They walked around and asked if everything was okay. Just like the VR area, games weren't working in the arcade areas. But enough of the games were working. I loved the roll of pinball machines they have. The prize section for kids are a little pricey and should be a little cheaper. This place could be really good if everything were opened and working. Their website should also state which sections are open and at what time. Would go back to this establishment if they did a revamp.

    Took my kids (ages 14 and 13) here on a rainy Tuesday and even with the Groupon discount coupon I feel like this place is too over priced for what you get and the customer service was terrible. The go karts themselves were mostly old and most were out of service. The Staff were more into socializing or on their phones than actually working. The package I got included an hour of unlimited arcade time for us all, but there was "problems" with the arcade so we had no other option but the trampoline area which was overrun by smaller kids. Not much for teens to do if the arcade isn't in service. Would have rather gotten a credit to try the arcade another day. Even the food staff was terrible. Got a few drinks while there, and the Staff were having a hugely inappropriate conversation full and not interested in ANY customer service other than the bare minimum. The VR room felt like an afterthought. One ticket per ride but the options are very limited. Save your money! Not worth the price when there's better places that aren't too far away. The kids were troopers but honestly agreed that I wasted my money :(

    Since the moment I got to purchase tickets for the go karts there was only one cashier. This place needs more love and better management. The go karts are ok but I was hoping more of a real go kart experience... the go karts here are electric .. they barely sound... Then the arcade most machines were out of order and old machines ... not a lot of fun. The food truly needs a complete makeover. . The hod dogs are hard and bread old. Had to return it.... Only thing I enjoyed was the cold beer. Being mom of two boys this will be my first and last tome visiting. Save your time and money and go to K1 speed that's 10000 times better.

    Cool car in the cafe area

    Best birthday ever! My son truly enjoyed the experience. We decided to go on a Monday so that we would have less interaction with other families (now that covid is not going away anytime soon) the place was pretty much empty & we got to enjoy the entire park. They do have a bar inside the mini golf area but didn't have beer when we asked in the cafe area but no big deal. Food is very pricey so eat before you go. They offer typical arcade food, pizza, hamburgers, chicken strips and fires. The soft play area for toddlers is totally worth the visit alone. They have a lot of arcade games and even VR on the 2nd floor which is also worth the money if you have older kids. Overall, go during the week, eat before or after you go & look for online promotions to get better savings.

    My 2 year old son loves it!! Great option for rainny days. I had a pizza at the dinner which was decent. Overall would definitly recomend a visit.

    Jumping area Huge
    Nuri O.

    This place is massive! Your kids can have fun and spend hrs just jumping and playing! I would definitely recommend this place..more interesting if your bring kids with their friends! I saw kids of 12 months old and men .. this is how you can tell The Dezerland is for everyone! A lot of playing spaces..for different age. Areas are divided and separated! A lot of seating places for parents. Several cafes (snakes and simple bites...but iced coffee is pricey- reg size around $9). They also have something like a bar with alcohol drinks. Toilets are clean. Sensitizers everywhere. Employees wearing mask. You are not obligated- it's up to you. If you have a toddler (or just want your kids to run and jump) we paid $17. They have other rooms and areas where you need to pay extra for Virtual reality space. Or if your want to play games (a lot of machines like at Jumping Jumboree).. collect your tix and get your prize kinda thing. Music is loud but nice pop songs. Nothing very disturbing. So depending on your age you can find and have a lot of fun with your friends! You need to wear socks! Don't forget them or buy them right there. Big parking lot is big and free. I would recommend this place ! And we will go back for sure!

    Dezerland has a lot for the kids to do, but the people who work there are the worst. Maybe they just don't like their job.

When we went, we had to reserve a time slot online. I believe it was free too. It wasn't too crowded when we went so we had time to enjoy every section.

We didn't buy anything but glad we checked it out. Didn't really need to interact with the staff as we were pretty much in & out in like 20 mins. I went to get a smoothie afterwards.

It will be here at least until November 6th but beyond that not much is known. It is free to experience. Park by the Macy's in the garage. It is next to Santa's Workshop which is under construction. You can put in for a ticket so you do t have to wait or you can just come down. There was only a 10 minute wait to get in. The main hold up was people who wanted their picture in front of the Stranger Things logo before entering. The wait was quick and I was entertained by the 80's music playing. The store has all of your Stranger Things merchandise and they have photo ops. You walk into the Byers living room. Complete with strung Christmas lights. It was so much fun to sit on Joyce's 80's couch. Other things you will recognize are the Starcourt Mall with Scoops Ahoy merch, the skating rink, the Hawkins School, Surfer Boy Pizza, and the Arcade where I had a blast reliving my youth with Ms. Pac-Man. You can even ride the kids bicycles into the upside down world. It was amazing how much of the show they got in. In the last room you are face to face with a demogorgon. This experience had a line because people stop and take pictures. Fans of the show will love seeing the TV show come to life. Merch is expensive but what price can you put on becoming a member of the Hell Fire club! The augmented reality pins looked really interesting. You can even personalize your shirts like a staff name on a Scoops Ahoy shirt or your name on a Hawkins team jersey. The only thing I didn't like was there was four registers set up and only one person checking out, The line to check out was longer than to see the demogorgon. They need more staff ringing up purchases. At the end a second person jumped on and after that it was better.
