    I agree with the previous review - not what I would call a "Children's Museum". It is definitely a…read moregreat play place, though. Anything you could imagine that kids would love is here - dress up, grocery store, climbing wall, play house, animals, building blocks of all shapes and sizes. Even a music area and a craft table.

    It costs $2 per adult and $4 per kid. If this was in Columbus and near my house, then I would get…read morea membership and use it during the winter as a play space. I would not call this place a museum in the same sense as the Pittsburgh Children's Museum. I believe the name is misleading and it should be called a play space. As a play space this place would get 4 stars but as a museum it would get one star. I averaged that and gave it 3 stars for affordability. The place is basically one big room but it has some walls to divide the space up a little. They have animal alley with a tarantula, fish, lizard, turtle, and a snake. They have a climbing wall, craft area, chalkboard, train table, and a sand table. One of the cooler stations is the lego station as they have a good collection of lego parts. They also have a station with an Ipad attached where one can video tape their actions and replay them. They have the bigger lego blocks in some small bins. They have the blue imagination blocks for constructing as well. My kids the loved the dress-up outcove the most as they have a kitchen and numerous outfits to put on. They have a small house type structure to climb steps. My 3 year old walked up it and was disappointed to not see a slide. All in all this place is a decent place to play on rainy or cold days. It is open enough to let the kids run around while one relaxes a little. Bring your own food and drink. There is a hot dog stand across the street and a restaurant on the corner. If you are traveling and need a place for kids to run around and be engaged then this place is better than the playspace at Burger King in St. Clairesville.

    I love everything about this place ! My oldest son has gone here for 4 years now and last Sunday I…read moredropped my youngest son off for the X-treme Sports event camp (it's his first time there n I'm picking him up tomorrow ) They have the coolest activities for children to do (I wish I had gone here as a kid lol) also they offer financial aid for low income families so that there kids are able to afford to attend camp events here! Also the Staff is so sweet and nice , my youngest son has bad social anxiety and my sons cabin leader /Dean gave me her personal cell phone number so I can text and check up on how my son is doing during the week he is there for his 1st time! I thought that was very helpful and cool of her to do! Don't let the word Christian in the title of this place push you away ! All denominations are accepted ! Your kid/kids will have an AMAZING time here ! Guaranteed . I 100000% recommended this place!

    I've been coming here for summer camp for 14 years now (3 as a camper, 11 as a counselor). This is…read moreby far one of the coolest weeks of the summer and I look forward to it every year! Location: On top of a mountain with an incredible overlook of Uniontown and 15 minutes from all the festivities of Ohiopyle. Activities: Offering a high ropes course, low ropes course, indoor rock climbing in the adventure center, outdoor rock climbing at various locations nearby, a cathedral in the woods, hiking trails to Jumonville Glen, a historical museum, king swing, ga ga ball, 9 square, 4 square, the iconic hike to the cross, partnering with outfitters from Ohiopyle for biking and white water rafting experience, tennis courts, basketball courts, and volleyball courts, frisbee golf, fire pits throughout campus and inside pavilions, chapel, arts and crafts building, and a swimming pool. Lodging: Either roughing it in the cabins or taking shelter in the air conditioned Washington Lodge. Food: Its summer camp, suck it up. This is an incredible way to spend a week of your summer. The views are breathtaking and the activities range from being adventurous to the more subdued. Will continue to be back here for a good week of devotion, peace, excitement, and fun!

    Camp Hidden Meadows is the GREATEST. I went this summer and loved it. They had a lot of fun…read moreactivities, like archery, rock climbing, and pottery. They had sing-alongs around the campfire. The counselors are really nice and supportive. They are there if you need anything and help make you feel at home. I made friends with the other campers there, and we can't wait to go back next year. I liked the cabins - they're cozy and the beds are comfortable. If you have any food allergies, like you're gluten-free, dairy-free, or sugar-free, they accommodate that and will have food options for you. They have dance parties on Friday nights, movies on Saturday nights, and the other nights are just as fun with other activities, like sing-alongs or they'll have "Cabin Nights" where you do fun stuff with your cabin, like baking or making bracelets. It's a good idea to stay for at least two weeks for your first summer. I highly recommend it!

    Massive disappointment. I have gone to this camp for many years, and the way camp was managed this…read moreyear was unacceptable. People were refused Covid tests unless they had 3 or more symptoms, EVEN WITH HIGH FEVERS. My friend got sick with what they called the "camp cold." They had a high fever and were coughing, but they were refused Covid tests or basic medication beyond a very limited supply of cough drops, as they camp somehow only had one bag. One bag. For a camp of over 150. They were then left in the cabin, which had heavy insulation and a non-functional fan. Because of this, the cabin got very hot during the day and they were left to melt inside. After camp, I learned that their parents had received NOTHING informing them that their child was sick and miserable. Their were also many cases of Covid (though their were most likely more that had not been tested) . This camp costs several thousand dollars to go to and I cannot comprehend how they were lacking so many basic necessities. I will not be returning next year, and I do not recommend sending your kids here.

John went as far as private message people to continue with the harassment even sinking as low as messaging minors. He didn't stop there some of his employees also did the same. Very unprofessional and creepy behavior.

The owner and employees will go out of their way to harass everyone who comments or reacts to these posts on people's personal social media accounts. They went as far as searching for the people because their business wasn't tagged and they're not friends with any of them. The owner went as far as private messaging anyone who even reacted to the post. Very unprofessional! Also, the claims that were made about a special needs adult as the business refers to him, seem farfetched to me as any video and pictures I ever see posted from parties at this place, there are plenty of grown adults on their inflatables. I've witnessed it myself, in person, as well. Just seems to me they wanted to justify not letting a special needs child on their equipment. Very rude and unprofessional actions!

    We took a large group of kids the day before Thanksgiving. I am glad we called a head because it…read morewas very busy. They had planned for us and set us up in the side room, which was great. I loved how they had all the paint color options on the wall painted onto a ceramic West Virginia piece. Pro: 1. they have a lot of different options, in different sizes and price points. 2. They did not charge a sitting fee, just cost of the item 3. 2 bathrooms, which was great since it was busy and we had little kids 4. a small play area with chalk board and chairs for the little ones who finished early and were board. 5. They had art work and pottery for sale from other local artists. 6. Classes and programs. 7. The place was clean and organized. 8. the staff was really friendly. 9. a wide variety of choices for different ages and ability (our group had kids from 2 years old thru 11 years old). 10. There was a nice selection of brushes on the tables. We had everything we need (aside form extra paper towels) on the table. 11. They put the kids paint on small tiles, which was nice for the little kids. Con: 1. Parking is difficult. Its street parking, and speedway is a busy street with large trucks. 2. It was a little confusing coming in for your first time, of what the process is. The register is at the back of the store.

    Mountain Creative is a locally owned paint your own pottery shop. The owners are super nice. They…read morehave a great selection of pieces to paint. They also offer pottery classes and have space for parties. We had my daughter's party there. It was a busy weekend and they were booked solid, but we never felt rushed and they were very attentive. It was very affordable as well.
