Just happened to see this playground/park from the road as we were leaving Jamestown Settlement to find a late lunch for my family of five. We decided to bring our lunch back to this park to picnic and play for a bit. Turned out it was just what my kids needed after a morning of history immersion (kids are ages 11, 9, and 2). They were able to blow off some steam and just have fun. This colonial Jamestown-themed playground is better than the pictures the reviews portray! We were there on a slightly rainy day when there was a break in the rain. The ground is synthetic so it wasn’t wet nor muddy. The only wet items were the slides. There is a separate area for the two main age groups (2-5, 5-12) and it is definitely the best varied outdoor play area for the younger group we’ve experienced. My 2 year old is usually left out when it comes to playgrounds but this one had no end of climbing structures, slides, toddler swings, even upright swings with special harnesses for them (out be the big kid swings), and barrels and canoes to keep with the Jamestown theme. The play structure for the older ones is similar to what you’d expect but has a few ‘extras’ such as a ship, tunnels, and off to the side is a zip line. There are also plenty of swings. Outside of the playground is a very large grassy field, perfect for walking a dog. This was such a great find!

My wife and I did all three rooms here, and they were all very original and great fun! We had parts of each room that we particularly enjoyed, and strongly recommend doing all three! The gamemasters were great fun and supportive, and we enjoyed talking with the manager, William, about the games afterwards.

We stopped by Pirate’s Cove after dinner time and had a great time. It’s wasn’t crowded at all on a Monday night. It was $9.50 per person to play and $6.95 for a second game. You can choose between two courses to play, beginners and advanced. We played the advanced one and it was a good challenge. If we are around here again, we would play it again.

The kids had a blast at this place! Laser tag was lots of fun, and there are so many bounce houses! The place was clean and there was plenty of seating for the adults. Staff was friendly and helpful and didn’t “hover,” as can happen with this type of place. Arcade games were reasonably priced and snacks and drinks were as well. If you’re on the fence about going, hop on over and go!
