Especially impressed with Christina who treated my kids like royalty and took the best care of us when one of our kids was sick. Highly recommend this business!!! Visit here for the best time together.

    We visited over winter break with our extended families but planned to have only a handful of…read morejumpers - 2 adults, 4 kids (7, 5, 3, 3) and an infant who is barely walking. We chose the "extreme fun" pass for everyone and were told that the infant would be the same price ($24.99) for everyone. What? She can't even walk. That's crazy. But okay fine, a policy is a policy, she can watch. So our total for 6 people was $150 + socks ($3 each) + tax but wait! There's a 5.5% fee for using a credit card so another $8+. The website casually mentions a "discounted cash price" but a 5% upcharge is absurd. In 2026 who carries around that kind of cash? When we asked about this up charge, the attendant grew very defensive and began trying to explain that the credit card company requires the charge and that it's not a fee they can eat as a business expense because they have to pay for Virginia gaming taxes or something. Look, I get it, I work in customer service too and don't always agree with my employer's policies (but still have to support them) but this man was acting like the fee would come directly out of his paycheck and being quite aggressive about it. We aren't stupid and know that businesses have out of pocket costs but pretending like they need to be passed on to the consumer at an exact 1:1 ratio is silly, ESPECIALLY when you're charging $3 for a $0.10 pair of socks. Anyways, we paid and kept it moving. The kids liked jumping and then the older girls liked the climbing walls. It wasn't very crowded and most of the bigger kids/teens were corralled in one of the dodgeball courts. I assume this is where all of the employees were too because there was absolutely no one available anywhere else on the floor. Not a huge deal because we had plenty of adults and our younger kids were safe to play on the other surfaces. They really liked the small playground (although it really should be more like 8 and under, 12 is pretty big for an area obviously for younger kids). The foam pits in the jousting area and ladder section were disappointing because the foam is old and crusty off and pretty gross but the trampoline parts were fairly clean. There is a section with "ninja" kind of activities that seemed to be an afterthought and had a lot of unfinished wood and a dangerous open area to the bottom of the trampoline springs that we stayed clear of but could be a big issue for older kids. When we were all getting tired of jumping and wanted to do the arcade and bumper cars is when things started going downhill again. We asked the person at the front for help with the bumper cars and he said someone on the floor could help but there was no one to be found. One employee at the front desk, one at the snack bar, and not a soul on the floor, no one at the climbing wall, and not a soul in the arcade/big slide area. They finally managed to find someone but were visibly annoyed so it was an uncomfortable situation. After we were done doing arcade games we went to the prize area to cash in our points for trinkets. The kids mostly played games that didn't get many points so I knew we wouldn't have a lot but we had 3 cards and wanted to combine the points to get a couple very small items. There were other families there with a gazillion points though and the man working there seemed super overwhelmed by the process and focused on their high ticket items, which is understandable. He told us the individual amounts but then when he was combining them the amount was somehow less than they were alone? He kept adding them but as other people came up he'd start doing things with them and mixing up everyone's cards. It was super confusing for everyone, especially our 2 kids who kept picking out treats and then being told actually no wrong amount. He finally came up with a number that was in the same ballpark as the initial individual cards and we got a couple bouncy balls. Overall, this was quite a day. The jumping part was fine but the customer service overall needs some serious help. They are obviously significantly understaffed which is annoying at best but potentially very dangerous with no one on the floor. The credit card situation is annoying too and should be more clear on the website, but truly the ability to take cards is a business convenience and expense that I expect a business to absorb.

    We spent 6 hours here and what a fun time we had. Is it on the smaller side, yes but with a main…read morepool, the splash area, and the lazy river plus 2 slides it made for a great day with our two kids. The admission over July 4th weekend is only $7.78 (steal) for everything you get. Orginally price shows $13. You must bring your own towels or you can pay them $8 for one. The little concession stand was nice, we saw people getting whole pizzas, but they had kid combos for $5 or adult combos for $8 - such as a hotdog, fries and a big drink. They have other combos as well. Ice cream too! Overall, we had a great time and I talked with a few locals as well that expressed the same. If you're in the area or just visiting check it out!

    Great value. Only 2 real slides, but they're a lot of fun. I wore a shirt after one ride in the…read morebowl slide since it scratched my back up, but still loved it. The lines for the slide were short, but the lazy riverish pool was packed.. definitely not a relaxing spot if you're older. My son loved the kids part, & I had a blast getting soaked. Food was surprisingly cheap & solid. Plenty of parking, clean bathrooms, & lifeguards. Only real con was that I wish the inside pool was open at the same time to spread out the guests, and nearly double the amount of slides. I heard there are hours when you can use both, but they're limited and the park is only open Thu-Sun.
