“What an awesome owner, super friendly, great with the children and clearly popular as we had to book ahead and even when we went overtime he didnt mind. So long as the kids are happy. And he had to scoot up the wall to encourage my girl down once making it fun for her that she didnt ask for help again. It actually could be bigger but even so there are still a lot of climbing wall options at different levels with challenges on the wall next to it. We visited 2 days in a row. 😁”
