15 Quirky Places to Visit on Your Next Colorado Family Road Trip

"Tiny Town began as Turnerville in 1921, a miniature village built by George Turner to entertain his daughter. But within five years, it had grown large enough to open to the public, and continues to delight visitors to this day.In its heyday, the miniature marvel was home to everything from a grocery store to a couple of little lakes, and much more. Each feature was decked out with tiny little inhabitants living out their inanimate little lives.   In the ensuing years, the model town was damaged by numerous fires and floods. By 1977, Tiny Town (it was renamed in 1939), was in a state of total disrepair, but a model train buff named Lyle Fulkerson bought the attraction anyway. Unfortunately, just as he began his restoration, he was tragically killed by a runaway train car on his way to visit Tiny Town. Finally, in 1989, the Northern Colorado Chapter of the Institute of Real Estate Management adopted Tiny Town as a civic project. Volunteers brought the sweet little tourist attraction back from the brink of becoming a dilapidated miniature ghost town.Today, the little city continues to thrive. There are more than 100 buildings in the collection, and each one still has a fascinating little scene on display. Even after nearly a century, Tiny Town still offers a glimpse into the charming, wholesome fun of yesteryear." - ATLAS_OBSCURA

This place is awesome! Perfect for little kids, but adults had fun too! So much detail put into the buildings and full on scenes inside too (loved the saloon with guys playing cards!). Nice playground at the end too. Small shop for snacks, hotdogs, ice cream. Spent several hours here and our son loved it. The 10 min or so real steam engine train ride was fun too!

My family and I visited Tiny Town for the first time last weekend and we all had a blast. From my 3-year-old to my teen and us as adults. The staff is very friendly. They have a playground so your little ones can run and get all that energy out. Some houses have space for kids to go in perfect for pictures. You can bring snacks or picnic at one of their tables or buy snacks and ice cream in their shop. Make sure you ride the train to experience some amazing tiny houses on the side of the mountain. It's very budget-friendly. I guarantee your kids will love it. We will definitely be back!

Neat experience for children and adults walking among the 110 year old buildings in this little gem. We took the ~7 minute train ride around “town” and it was enjoyable. Once on foot, the coal-burning train fumes spoiled the experience a bit (hence the 4 stars). Also, a few of the buildings are in visible need of repair (roofs and paint). Great little outing, especially for children, since they’re small enough to fit in some of the buildings. Plenty of parking. Nice staff and facilities.

I'm so glad tiny town is still growing strong! I remember visiting as a kid when we visited family in Colorado. Now I took my kids and grandkids and it was still fun. We brought in a picnic to eat lunch near the playground. And everyone rode the train that goes around the whole park. Lots of things for kids to do and see!

We had a WONDERFUL day at Tiny town. Everything was easily accessible, there were clean restrooms and porta potties throughout,the train was great, kind staff, and the hot dogs and ice cream were really good as well! There is a cute little souvenir shop and everything is at very reasonable prices. We spent almost 5 hours there today and could have stayed longer. There is tons of shade and picnic benches. You can bring outside food and drink and there is a fun playground at the end of the park! Can't wait to take the family back up!!

Tiny down was amazing. My grandson loved it. We loved looking in all the little houses and seen seeing them set up. We took a train ride which was peaceful and a great way to see the entire town. We ate a hot dog and a bratwurst with Sauerkraut at the Saco Cafe.

More rundown, even with added paint. Fun when the houses have small set ups to look at inside. Train was having to be fixed. With everyone waiting most got treats. Not communicated well that they planned to get it fixed, many were ready to get their money back for train tickets. With patrons back and forth about knowing if they're getting to ride the train or not, everyone was trying to finish their time appropriately. Sadly, they closed the treat shop earlier than the time posted which disappointed many. It was a more expensive day for a very stale experience.

Ok I grew up in Colorado and somehow had never heard of tiny town until this week. The hubs and I immediately had to go and check this out. We love odd quirky moments and this was perfect. For starters, it's 108 years old and still using one of the original trains. The engineers are all volunteer and I think that is so cool and much appreciated that they donate their time. We first rode the little charcoal powered train around tiny town to get a lay of the land. After the train ride (9 minutes), we walked through tiny town. Many of the houses are in various states of preservation, but it still has a kitsch feel that we thoroughly enjoyed.

A quaint little tiny town setup marred by a simple refreshments center with hostile staff and a series of anti-child and political signs. Makes you shake your head. There is clearly terrible ownership happening. None of the houses look like they got any restoration in the last 20 years. The newest buildings are all corporate sponsorships like Home Depot and Meyer. The well-tanned lady who was working the refreshments was rude to my wife when she asked for water cups. They only sell bottled water. But she had given cups to the people in front of us. Until they sell to people who care about the park, you should avoid. Seriously, the buildings are falling apart. They also make the train engineers work for free.

Tiny Town is a super fun and very authentic local Colorado attraction that's been around forever. I went there as is a little kid. My mom went as a little kid and today we took my son and had such a nice afternoon. Some of the little houses have entryways so kids can go inside, but mostly you can just look inside. They have a nice little playground area and picnic areas so you can bring lunch in. They also sell a concessions like hotdogs, and they have good ice cream. My dad bought my son too many toys at the gift shop and my son is over the moon about it. (In fact, he's engrossed in playing with one of them right now which is giving me a much needed break;). We rode the train and all in all it was just a wonderful day. Highly recommend checking out Tiny Town.

Cool little place for all kids. The train conductors and volunteers were friendly and helpful and made the experience fun. Neat little route that takes about 15-20 minutes around the property. Lots of small replica buildings for the kids to either peek into, explore inside. There is a playground with slides and swings towards the end of the complex. We visited the concession stand and had ice cream cones which were great on a hot day that we visited. Plenty of free parking across the street, and we did stop into the souvenir shop and ended up getting a t-shirt. There is about 50/50 sun and shade so bring an umbrella and coat up with the sunscreen!

Friend recommended Tiny Town as a great place for kids (of all ages). Good choice. The star attraction for the 5 and 3 year olds in our group was the miniature train that travels a 5/8 ths mile track in 9 minutes around the park. There is a coal fired engine and an oil engine. Volunteer Engineers know how to keep the kids entertained. Beside the train(s), there are miniature houses and other stuff, some of which can be entered by children. Tiny Town has been here since 1915 and some of the things look to be dated back to then. Other more recent houses have been added. Upkeep must be tough, or at least it looks like it. There is also a playground with swings and slides which was also an attraction. Definitely worth a visit if you have little ones.

The lady working in the gift shop is a rude wench. My son and I went to visit the shop on two occasions, once while waiting on the train, and again as we walked into the park. The first time, she muttered that I somehow snuck in on her because she was distracted and had her head down as I entered the shop, I helped her laugh it off by playing it down. The second time, my Son entered first, about 15ft ahead of me. He walked in and went straight to the counter where she stood and picked up a lighted flashlight sort of toy that had fast rotating LED's that changed colors. It was a display unit that was fastened to the counter and working so the kids could look at, and handle it. As I rounded the corner, she snapped at my Son and told him !No, that's not to play with!". WTH! She was snapping at him for picking up the demo model that was illuminated and fastened by cable to the countertop. My Son was immediately offended and turned away, looking at me for comfort. We left that park minutes later. Ironically, I found another review from just days earlier that seems to point out the same person with the same sort of attitude. Aside from the old, and rotting tiny buildings, the train was having trouble and the second one broke down as we arrived. There is no value in this place, at all. It has lost its steam!

My sister and I were really put off by the $4 dollar soft serve cones which we received bare-handed. No gloves....not even a napkin to separate Elvira's bare hand from the food I was about to consume. Lololol! Also, watch out for the cranky lady who runs the gift shop. She yelled at my 40 year old sister for bringing her half eaten nice cream along with her into the gift shop. She said "excuse me, is that chocolate?? Is that chocolate?!! No chocolate or Cheetos allowed inside the gift shop because it leaves residue!" I said "oh it's fine, we are grown adults, not toddlers so you don't even have to worry about that." And then we left.

This is a charming little place where the star is the train. And who doesn't love the miniature train ride? Kids and brave adults can even ride in the caboose. It's not overly pricey for an afternoon excursion with kids near Denver. They have food but it's a limited menu, which again, no issues. There is also a small gift shop. I can't say how much is volunteering and how much are paid employees but with land at a premium, I imagine there are hefty property taxes. Locally owned and operated by people who put their heart into their product are far better than anything owned by a nameless conglomerate who only cares about profit. So why 4 instead of 5 stars? For starters, the snack bar is cash only. Yes, there is a convenient ATM but there is also a $3 surcharge. I get that CC machines charge a usage fee every time the card is swiped but a $3 seems on the high end. The other reason was we had a dog with us. We asked before we went in if she could go to and we're told no dogs. I imagine it's because they don't want dogs marking the miniature buildings and dealing with irresponsible owners who won't clean up after their dogs. Fine. No problem. We took turns sitting with the dog so she wasn't in a hot car and there were other people doing the same thing. However, they allowed someone's dog about the size of a bichon frise to wander the grounds and not a single employee pointed out the no dog policy. Moreover, if said dog was truly a service dog, it would have been identified as such and in this case, it wasn't. How do I know you ask? Because my husband said something to them about their dog being inside the park and me on the other side of the fence with our dog. The owner said it was not a service dog. So please, either allow dogs or inform guests of the no dog policy.

Was so Excited to make it back to my home state. To coordinate my grandsons birthday party. We unfortnately missed the train tour. And went to gift shop instead. The sales clerk, was NOT kid friendly what's so ever. Very mean. I ended up putting back $150 in merchandise I was going to purchase. Because, she was so mean to my grandchildren. She claimed to be the owner. Which was not true. According to the ticket counter. Personally if you don't like kids, you should find a different profession. I unfortnately Will have to find a new birthday place with trains!! We well not be returning. Very poor experience for both grandchildren and myself.

This place was some what interesting, but pretty run down, like it hadn't been updated since 1979... we like exploring weird/unknown places, and even though this was a kids place we were hoping to still see some weirdness. But on the uniqueness scale I'd give it a 4/10, so it's something you could skip if you're coming here just for that. But if you have a child who's under 5, I'm sure they'll have an okay afternoon.

My son is a two year old and we just got off the train to go get ice cream in the shop. We all were super excited and then had the worst experience from an old lady worker, I'm guessing the owner. I'm backing up my story to tell you all that my son is scared of loud noises, and was not happy due to the train, and when we went in the ice cream shop the he was finally happy!! My daughter was showing him something on display, and while they were pointing at the display, having a happy moment and giggling, a nasty worker who was working the cash register told them to be quit! I couldn't believe it! I would understand if my 2 and 5 yr old were be obnoxious, but they weren't! I was just happy that my 2 year old was finally having a good time. I looked at this woman and told her "he's two!" and she didn't say a word to me. I'm amazed why they would have such an awful woman working At this place, and for that i will not be going back.

We love tiny town. It's awesome to be able to pop down on a nice afternoon and stroll through the magically whimsical little park. You've got to take the train ride to see all of the hidden things as well. It has gotten quite busy over the past few years so if you're driving in get there early and expect quite a lot of people. Wouldn't even try on a nice weekend honestly.

Another one of these odd Colorado "historical" obsessions. As a Colorado native who was born here and lived a majority of my life here, I have to say that I don't get it. It's really nothing more than a small tourist trap on the side of the road. Among some of the "tiny houses" you will see here are the porta potties, so enjoy that. At the ticket booth they have a sign discouraging people from paying in any format other than cash. This is a red flag for illegal activity, because money launderers and tax evaders prefer cash transactions with no paper trail. But it seems like most of the money here is being spent on signs telling you all the stuff you aren't allowed to do here. Steer clear of the gift shop too, unless you are in the market for some Chinese knock-off Legos called "Cegos" or other overpriced imported junk. Other than all of those issues, kids seem to like this stuff and the price is fairly cheap. So it could be worse, I guess.

The perfect spot if you've got children under 10 with you. They're got a little train, tiny/ miniature houses and a playground. There are even child sized picnic tables. What's not to love

Okay, so I rounded my review up a star because I was between 2-3. Pros- it is SO cheap, there is a nice playground set, the train ride is pretty good, they have food and a descent gift shop. Cons- the things you are going to see (the tiny houses) look horrible. A lot are falling apart and in desperate need of repair. There are some that seem thrown together. Overall, it's fine to walk through on a nice day, but its really not worth an extra drive/stop. It maybe took us 15 minutes to walk through everything with a 2 year old. My kids favorite thing was the playground.

Kris Y.

Yelp
I agree with the significant negative reviews about not wasting your money. This is not worth your kids time for many reasons including: 1) They will be bored after just 5 minutes as there is nothing to do other than look at some old buildings falling apart 2) The one (and only) attraction to this place is the train ride which is nothing worth driving into the mountains for. 3) The staff is not friendly, particularly the manager who is just nasty. We purchased train tickets and it started to rain shortly afterwards, causing her to shut down the ride. But she refused to refund the train tickets and was just nasty about it. Her answer was that we needed to come back another day and pay another full admission to use our train tickets. Really? I would not recommend this place to anyone. I believe their complete lack of customer service will ultimately cause their demise to go out of business.

It's a cute little place. The tiny building were fun to look in and spot all the tiny characters and decorations. The highlight for my kiddo was definitely the train ride! She went on it 6 times!!! There's a playground too but no shade. We will definitely go again with the rest of the family, but not sure it's enough entertainment for multiple visits

Tiny Town Morrison really does appear tiny in the eyes of adults. But my sister, being the child she is, enjoyed it and felt that the houses were fun sized and yet, so colossal. I've always had an obsession with mini versions of things and this park satisfied my love for it; tiny houses, trains, even the fence and the admissions office were adorably tiny. I also loved the little mushroom umbrellas and the admission price are incredibly affordable. I am jealous of the conductor because he gets to drive that mini train all day and just make it fun for the whole crowds. Though some of the park is seen having some renovation going on, the park is still fairly enjoyable and it is open. I think every child should experience this.

Tiny Town needs to welcome itself to the 20th century! the "handicapped" parking is unacceptable and dangerous! It is a sand pit filled with rocks. The website also explains that the train, that they happily charge for, is accessible to all. it is not! When I questioned about this the owner lied to me, about who she was. The other employee I spoke claimed it was her first day: that seemed fishy. I wanted Tiny Town to be great place for my daughter and I, however, it became a learning experience about ignorance of disability and difference. This place is a TOTAL LET DOWN! Just plan something else. B.T.W They are in violation of several Title II A.D.A requirements. BAD,BAD,BAD

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! We arrived two hours prior to closing and were told the train had already stopped running for the day. We still WASTED $18 to go inside since the park wasn't set to close until 5pm so we walked around and looked at the run-down houses. When we walked back to the front 45 minutes before closing EVERYTHING was closed and locked. We planned to go into the gift shop but it was locked. I saw the owner inside the locked cafe and asked about the gift shop and was informed "we only saw your car so we closed early". She was EXTREMELY RUDE and when I mentioned the park says it is open until 5pm she said "well I can close it early if I want". When I asked for a refund she refused. The owner could CARE LESS about her patrons as she watched me inform my 3 year old who burst in to tears. Again, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY to support someone with ZERO customer service and care! SO SO SO disappointed!

My 10 year old son and daughter loved it, especially the tiny buildings they could go into. They didn't play at the playground, mainly cause it was swarmed with little kids, but they didn't care, they wanted to play in the tiny town. The train ride was enjoyable. Fun to see the other side of the creek that can't be accessed on foot. The kids got so excited about all the details these tiny buildings had. They rode in the caboose and LOVED it!!! I want to give this 5 star, but so many of the tiny buildings were so run down, and abandoned looking, almost gave off a ghost town feeling.

Only a few weekends left until this place closes for the season at the end of September, but for any of you parents out there, take your kiddos and check it out! Still love this place, but a few things to keep in mind for new visitors: - Cash only at the concessions counter but you can get cash at the check in line - I recommend bringing lunch and eating at the picnic tables down by the playground (they don't want you bringing outside food to the concession stand tables for obvious reasons). However, I went a few weekends ago and there were so many consecutive birthday parties going on that there was no seating anywhere, so we ended up eating in our car. Maybe bring a picnic blanket in case this happens to you. - The snack bar stocks the typical unhealthy stuff but we always get a twist cone (they do sell adult and kiddies sizes.) - The gift shop is pretty sparse but you're sure to find a memento for your kiddo. - There are a few port-a-pottys but I recommend using the restroom up by the train/concession area.

When I read Doctor Sleep recently, I couldn't help but wonder if Stephen King had been to Tiny Town when he lived in the area. Sure he moved the "tiny town" but it seemed to be the same place. . A awesome little railroad that kids can ride. My son (3 at the time) had no issue being alone in the caboose (he loved it). The place also have lots of little houses and kids just get a kick out of these houses.. . and being the giants. There is a nice playground with picnic tables toward the back. . . I would recommend bringing a picnic to Tiny Town and eating in the back near the playground and the beautiful (and large) tree with plenty of shade. Our family had fun, and we will be back. . .

I haven't been to Tiny Town since I was a kid, and my son and I were super bored yesterday, so I thought, why not?? It took me back to when I was a kid, and seeing my son actually enjoying the little houses and buildings was an absolute joy to watch!! I was nervous about the train ride (he's never been on any kind of train before), but he loved it! It's actually really close too, only about a 20 minute drive from Littleton.

Been coming here since I was a child and LOVE that my kids get to experience the wonder of the small buildings and look inside them to see the scenes set up. Just so fun! Love the train ride too and the small villages set up along the way. It's so close to town too just 10 min away.

Super cute place! We loved the train ride and all of the houses with fun scenes inside. Great park, lots of shade and picnic tables. Bring cash for concessions! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. :-)

Tiny town was fun to visit with our six year-old girl and three year-old boy. Many of the buildings contained scenes inside, and my children especially enjoyed the several that they could walk inside of. One big disappointment was that we were unable to ride the train that we paid for, even though we arrived to the station in front of the train at about 3:30, well before the 5 pm closing time for Tiny Town. The train conductor told us that he was putting the train away and there would be no more rides for the day since rain was likely. There may have been a few drops of rain to fall prior to this decision (very minimal, if any), but we did not experience any rainfall after this time. My children and wife were disappointed. Tiny town wrote on our train ticket to allow us to revisit for free, including the train ride. Unfortunately, our vacation plans did not allow us to drive 45 minutes each way back to Tiny Town. This is a fun place to visit for a couple of hours with young children, but try to ride the train early if the sky looks overcast.

Honestly how can you not give this place a 5 star rating - it's $5, free parking and only $2 to ride the train. Yeah, there are some needs for upgrades, fixings, etc - but my hope is my $5 entrance fee, helps that! I love that there are things from around denver - the cathedral from the air force academy, the fort, etc. It is fun to look at the old pictures of how things used to look. We took a couple friends that LOVE tiny things. And the tiny store that sold tiny things set his heart a flutter! It is a fun diversion and something different that colorado has to offer! We were there for probably an hour , including the train ride, but it was definitely a fun time!

I highly recommend tiny town for any child under the age of 5. The little ones go nuts for miniature houses. Wouldn't you? It's unbelievably adorable, but the best part is that the 2ft. homes each have a purpose as if they were component of a town. For instance, the school house had teeny desks and a teeny chalkboard inside. The saloon had Barbie and Ken dolls dressed like Cowboys and Saloon floozies. That was fun explaining to my niece what saloon girls were. There's also a teeny train that costs $2 per passenger that takes you around Tiny Town conducted by a Santa Claus impersanator that seems almost too perfect for the job. The rates are reasonable, it's not a bad drive, and the kiddos can spend all day there. If you have young kids or a niece and two nephews in town like I do - it's worth a visit.

Tucked west of Morrison on 285, there is a little place set back in time called TINY TOWN. This little weird amusement park boasts a 100 year birthday this year- think back to 1915- that is the 2nd year of WWI and Pre-electricity. Today Tiny Town is a strange but fun remnant of a simpler time, when miniature houses scattered over a few acres of Mountains with a couple of little trains to ride was a major attraction! Today, it is a quick drive from Denver, and a great way to spend a few hours in glorious Colorado weather- perfect for kids, picnics, and especially your inner child who will really love the train ride! Ample parking and inexpensive, take a little trip to the mountains and visit Tiny Town.

This place is perfect for little kids younger than 7 I would say. I went with my 2 year old daughter and my 2.5 year old niece. It was perfect for them. They loved the train ride and running around all the tiny houses. We were there for about an hour and a half. We probably would have stayed longer, but we needed to get back home for nap time. There are plenty of shaded areas, so it's easy to find a place to cool off when it's hot. It's a great place to go to for a different play date.

This little place is so cool, it's slice of Colorado history that's fun for kids too!! We took my daughter last summer and we all had a nice afternoon. She was almost 4 at the time, and it was perfect for her age! She had to take her time inspecting and commenting on every single building. They have a nice little playground area towards the back, and a train ride the whole family enjoyed. All in all it's worth a trip up to come check it out!

A disappointing trip overall. My kids didn't seem to notice, but the buildings are in dire need of maintenance. There's a lot of peeling paint and chipped wood, and some of the buildings look to be on the verge of collapse. The real disappointment was that we weren't able to ride the train. We arrived at 3:30, and the sign said last ride at 3:45 (closing time is 5:00). The young lady selling tickets told me that the last train had just left. We went in anyway and five minutes later, we saw another train leave with room for more passengers . But it was too late to buy tickets and board. So frustrating!

Adorable "tiny town" to walk through and enjoy seeinh some mini replicas of favorite and or famous buildings that are shorter than you! As well as many just for fun and some for the kids to climb in and play in the train ride is definitely a must and worth it too, lots more buildings you won't see otherwise as well as a beautiful mural. There is also a playground for the kids and refreshment area. Definitely worth the trip and didn't hurt the wallet either, was very happy woth the prices!

Tiny Town is a gem of the past when roadside attractions were the best! Gravity houses, World's largest groundhog, Jellystone, none compare to the marvel of Tiny Town. I would wear my parents down every time we were anywhere near the place. When I saw the sign last week as I came home to Colorado to visit, I was thrilled! Hooray!

Tried to visit on Friday July 2nd. Called two times to confirm times of operation.. Website indicates open daily "weather permitting". It had sprinkled earlier so wanted to confirm. No one answered the phone either attempt. Made the trip (based on no rain and "open daily" info. When we arrived at 3:00 p.m. it was sunny but the girl was locking the door and going home. Three cars of families, two of us from out of state), were standing there shocked that it was sunny and during normal business hours and she was closing! Then, it gets better, on Tuesday-our last day in Denver- we again tried to call and surprise, surprise, no one answered the phone. Save your money, this business doesn't care if you come or not. Several people from the area shared that it is not worth it because it is not kept up and the Tiny Town is in shambles. Just try in' to keep it real. Arizona visitors

Tiny Town is a literal tiny town in Morrison. The history, I believe, goes something like a gold miner with a family originally built it for his daughter so she'd have a place to play. Naturally, any family would enjoy a small town area full of doll-sized houses and play things so it became quite popular with children coming to visit quite often. Eventually it became such a big attraction that the miner gave it up to be run as an amusement area. Over the past 100 years it's been flooded, shut down, rebuilt, and passed onto various groups and today it lives on as a newer set of buildings with a few of the old ones set out for kids to explore. There is also a kids playground area, a snack area (with soft-serve ice cream!), and a coal-burning train that takes you on a tour around the entire grounds for $2 a person at a slooooooow speed. My one year old loves this place. He thinks it's the coolest thing ever that the buildings are his size. You can't go into them - they are most doll-sized buildings, but that doesn't seem to affect his joy upon seeing row after row of small stores, saloons, and homes. And the playground is fun, too. I can't imagine kids older than 6 or 7 enjoying a visit here, but then again I don't have any kids that age so who am I to say so? I know that as a grown up I found it entertaining and worth the $5 admission price. While I wouldn't necessarily rush here every week with my kiddo I'd be inclined to come back every once in a while to visit Tiny Town. It's cute.

Everything is Tiny Town is well.... tiny. The town consists of 200+ miniature structures (homes, salons, general stores, bars, churches etc) and a miniature steam engine rail. The train takes you through the hillside. Adults can ride the train, but there are a few carriages that only fit kids. If you have kids visiting that you have no idea what to do with, take them to Tiny Town for a day of fun.

With four kids in tow, I went to Tiny Town. My two young kids loved this place, as well as the two older kids (9-10). It's very reasonably priced, from the gate admission to the train tickets. The train ride is stated to last 9 minutes, and it takes you around the whole area. There are a ton of things to see, including hidden gems in various places, like in the trees. After the train ride, we walked out to the playground, looking at the multitude of buildings as we passed them. There were plenty of picnic tables to sit and have lunch. A lot of trees provided a good amount of shade, too. It was really nice to be able to sit and relax while the kids released their pent-up energy on the playground. There are four swings, a large play structure and a smaller play structure. We were there for nearly two hours, which wasn't enough time to go and look at all the stuff available. We didn't get a chance to sample any of the foods or peruse the gift shop. I look forward to coming back again, which we will hopefully get to this summer.
