Customer Reviews

excellent place for all who have an imagination
Reviewed by 44yearold kid on 2010-02-15T13:42:07Z

this place is one of a kind. it is an art gallery that you are encouraged to climb on. the cost may be high for food and admission, but how would you survive if it were you running the place? bring a cooler and tailgate... you can re-enter with your wrist band. The many tunnels (NOT TUNNEL TOWN) are a blast to explore. Oh did anyone mention the SEVEN STORY SPIRAL SLIDE? awsome!!! If you have an open mind you will come back to this treasure a few times and recommend it often. You can read the posts of previous reviewers on this site, but, don't believe a complaining word from a negative thoughtmaker. Great spot for blind/first date. Bring your kids ages 3 thru retirement home and see their face light up! If you are lucky you will meet the ambassador. His name is Charlie. He is a true gem of a human being.

Pros: friendly staff, hands on art exibit, great rainy day escape

Cons: crowded on wknds, kids can get lost easy, then hard to find.

There was lots of different things you don't see everyday. Most was good, went in with really high expectations so they were dashed a bit. Do NOT eat the food there! WAY overpriced... $5 for a kids PBJ!!
