The laser tag sessions last 12 minutes, so you might experience a long wait if there are many people ahead. The arcade is very loud but definitely fun for kids. The bowling alley is located right behind the cashier, costing $50 per hour plus $4 for shoe rental. The go-karts can be a blast, especially for younger kids, as staff tend to ensure the little ones have a good chance of winning. However, my teenager got a bruise from the go-karts because some riders didn’t use their brakes when entering the parking area after the race and ended up slamming into the back of his cart. I personally chose not to ride again due to the discomfort it caused my spine. Staff should be clearer about applying brakes and slowing down when parking the karts. Also, note that the first two to three sinks in the women's bathroom don’t have soap dispensers nearby. Overall, if you have children, I’d recommend spending a couple of hours here.

In contrast, the main area includes bowling, a restaurant, outdoor activity access, and an arcade. Our kids absolutely loved it. I’d give this place five stars, but it’s hard to find. The best way to get there is by using Google Maps, since there’s very little signage after you go past the Big Cedar entrance.

Although I did manage to find a few crispy chips, it certainly wasn't enough to satisfy. On a brighter note, everything else was fantastic— the draft beer, bowling, and go-karts were all great, and my kids had a blast in the arcade. However, for some reason, they wouldn't even give the nachos a try (a wise decision!). I just hope they hadn’t been sitting out for too long, as I want to make the most of my expensive vacation. None of my group was willing to sample the nachos, and I kind of wish I had skipped them entirely, but it was nearing closing time.

Unfortunately, the ropes course and go-karts were closed due to fireworks, but we were pleasantly surprised to see a large python and several alligators under the ropes course. We had such a wonderful time that we decided to return twice! Our group of seven did notice a mandatory gratuity added to our bill at the restaurant. As a former server, I didn’t mind it, but it's something to be aware of. The staff was very friendly and truly seemed committed to making sure we had a fantastic experience.
