Such a fun experience ! The Mario Kart-style go-karts were unique, fast and interactive. They got bumper car , baseball cage , balloon throw and bumper car as well . Prices are really affordable.
Ride-A-Kart was fun. The goal carts worked and their model for driving is set up like Mario Kart which was cool. If you drive over certain marks on the ground, you either got a boost ir someone coukd slow your kart down. Ultimately, thats why I gave this a 3 star. We had only 4 drivers in our group and we were slowed down it seemed like every 10 seconds. It really takes away from fun.
Enjoyable mini golf course. Was a little waterlogged from recent (amazing) rains but that just gave us more water hazards! Nice formal water features throughout. Not busy at all at noon on a weekday.
Stopped by after visiting RMNP. Got my grandson a go kart ticket then I thought, why let him have all the fun, so I got myself a ticket and joined him. I’m 58 years old and I had a blast on the go karts!!! It is a lot like Mario kart! He then went on the bumper boats but I didn’t join him on those, lol. Place was a lot of fun and all the staff we encountered were very friendly! Had a great time, highly recommended!!!
