We got a 10 play punch card and they do memberships or play for the day. Love the look and feel of the place. It's a warehouse converted to a large play area with seating all around that was clean and cozy. Also, local artist work for sale all around. It was nice to let my son interact with other kids and for us to talk to other parents. Michelle, the owner, is so friendly and made delicious drinks. We will be back!

What a great addition to the area! Delicious coffee and a safe place for little ones to play and…read moreinteract with others. You can go for coffee and for a fee (one time, monthly, 6 month, yearly rates) let your child play in an enclosed space with a plethora of toys and activity areas to explore. Meanwhile, you can interact with your child in the area or sit at the tables surrounding. There are some high stools directly next to the play area with a good view. I brought my two year old for the first time and he was thoroughly entertained. It was great that he was also able to play with other children. It was a clean environment and they have extra baskets positioned around for toys that may have found themselves in the mouths of the kids for cleaning afterwards. The bathroom offers a changing table and the coffee stand offers a great amount of beverages to choose from. Suggestions: with all the little hands, I would suggest hand sanitizer at the entrances to the play area. Tissues would be a good idea too. I think a lot of parents will carry those things around but having them readily available for use would overall help with cleanliness and hygiene for the kiddos. Also, a step stool in the bathroom for kids to be able to reach to wash their hands. I've been excited for Three Friends to open in the area and it did not disappoint. This is an excellent concept. I'm hoping that with more popularity maybe they will be able to stay open a little bit later for some evening play. 100% will be visiting often with my boy.

I was down in Wilmington, NC visiting during 6/22/26 - 7/6/26 and we went down and bought a…read moremembership for my 2 boys, myself and my fiance during our stay. When I bought the membership I knew we were only going to be down there for a limited amount of time and tried to cancel it but the cancellation did not go through because I was recharged for $71.96 on 7/22/26 while reviewing my bank statement. We are no longer in Wilmington as we are back home in VA. I just got off the phone with Skyzone off 6431 Market Street in Wilmington, NC 28405 and spoke to Reese. He forwarded the information (email) for me to reach out to Skyzone corporate customer service and request a refund. I did just that and explained the situation. They informed me that even though there were 0 sessions used after my stay there that they would not give me a refund and instead offer me credits, which is unacceptable. I had to reach out to my bank to file a dispute and route the necessary support documentation. I'm leaving a review because of the horrible customer service that was presented.

It is also a great deal--less than $50 for the experience and a large custom candle to take home. Just keep in mind that after you make the candle, it takes over an hour to set so make sure you bake that into your time as you have to come back to pick it up. Overall, great experience and friendly staff!

Luckily went on a non-weekend night and early enough that it wouldn't be packed (would drive by at…read morenight and see how packed it potentially could get). For the most part, I was set on the go karts and only the go karts. The track is fairly small and the go karts are SLOW, at least to my standards (and potentially other adults). Overall this place is more for kids, even though that's kind of obvious. Inside was bigger than I expected. Plenty of various and new games, which was a plus to see. A lot of ticket games and prizes. The back area towards the bathrooms gave off a bit of an eerie abandoned park vibe - mainly because it was only a couple of games that were on and mostly looked like spots to put their "junk" per se (that wasn't in use). Prices weren't bad, the staff that I came across were fairly nice. Would recommend for families opposed to an adult game night.

We received the season passes for the water park for Christmas since they run a sale. We clearly will not being using this place again after seeing the doctor. I called to speak to the manager to see if we could do anything about the 800$ my parents spent on the passes we won't be able to use and were told to bad. In conclusion this place is digusting and a complete rip off. Save your money and go somewhere else. The doctor said they always prefer salt water over nasty places like this!

All of the toys inside were just plastic little tikes crap. They had a few crafts, and a couple different rooms but I felt this was too baby ish for my 3 year old. Cute little playground outside with some shade but I don't think this place should be up to age 5, maybe 3 at the most. The employees were all very nice.

I love how they add seasonal activities so my kids aren't always doing the exact same thing every time they come. We live on the opposite side of town, but it's worth the trip.

Private Axe Throwing Party was AWESOME!!…read more WHAT FUN! They have a really great (SAFE) facility that has LOTS of space (we plan to go back for some paintball fun!). It's really a class-act setup & a fabulous 'different' experience which made for a great party! We booked a party, which on Mon-Wed they are closed & it's only private parties (not sure if this is year round or just the winter hours?); but it was GRAND having the WHOLE PLACE to ourselves! We just had 8 people for an 18th b-day party & we could easily have had another 4-6 people with the room they have for axe-throwing. The Axes area is a nice size but also cozy, almost like a neat 'bar' environment. *FYI-it is BYOB-no liquor* We brought wine for adults & sparkling juice for the teens. 3 boys, 1 girl and 4 adults.....we ALL had so much fun! $249 isn't cheap, but it was worth every penny. 90-minutes (which the fabulous gentleman who was there for us did not start our time until all safety briefing & instruction time was over) of throw time was MORE than enough, the last 10 minutes you could tell it was time to go eat, so more than 90 min would just have been too much. There are 3 high-top tables with 4 chairs each. There are 5 throwing lanes. Each lane has mesh metal screens on the sides and thick wood-paneled walls. The targets (which I read about on their site) are really amazing, the thicker blocks they use vs. cheaper boards make the axe's stick GREAT and easily for almost any throw-er. The 'games' are projected onto the boards and have score keeping that is fun & easy (like a bowling alley) with a PC mouse & keypad. The gentleman who was there for our party experience was fantastic, even came in a few times & showed us different throw-angles to try and (as a 'mom') I felt safe that he was keeping an eye on everything too. Super nice and accommodating gent - helped make our evening even more fun! Helpful tip: If you go at night, the sign is currently not lit, so it's RIGHT after Black's Tire/Goodyear. The parking lot is dark, but you'll see the lights inside are on! OH - take snacks & drinks for your party, also any plates or utensils - they only have the tables/seating & the entertainment!

Crossfire Does It Again!…read more Crossfire gets better and better every time I visit. They rebuilt after the hurricane, a beautiful new interior for paintball and nerf. After COVID, they added GellyBall. And now, AXE THROWING! I had never thrown axes before and it was easy to get the hang of enough to have fun. Also, the computer projects different games onto the wooden target so you never get bored. I went with just one other person but this would be a blast for a group - co-workers, friends, bachelor/bachelorette party, school organization, fraternity/sorority outing. No limits.

The Little Gym had been recommended to us, so we tried an intro class. Upon arriving, we were greeted by a few friendly people. My partner and I looked at the gym space and wanted to play on it ourselves - it looked so fun! The class itself was well-structured without being overly scheduled. There were a series of activities along with some free play and some offered "spotting" from the instructor. The instructor had such positive, encouraging energy. We tried things with our little guy that we wouldn't have thought of before, like a supported front flip and back flip. He got to play with bubbles and play on some equipment that he really enjoyed. I really, really appreciated after class that we were walked through the membership program BUT not pushed with a hard sell. At this point we've decided that the cost is higher than we're willing to do for now. We don't anticipate raising an olympic gymnast, so the idea of spending over $1,200 a year on classes for our baby is more than we want to do when he's so little. But once he gets a little older, I think a membership is in our future.
