Facility

I like the concept of this place a lot. There are many different ways to have fun here. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because the safety equipment for the zip lines and ropes courses is the most cumbersome I have ever seen, and I've done quite a few of both. There are better ways that still ensure safety, and the course designers should get out and visit some other parks to see how it's done.

I had the best time...

when I went here. I never in a million years thought I would white water raft! I was scared but I did. It was well worth it. There are other things to do here besides that. You can do a rope course, hike, rock climb and kayak. They do an instructional session before you raft to tell you what to do. It's not that cheap though.
