New and growing so a few opportunities. Staff was always nice and helpful. Attractions jam up with lines easily and quickly sometimes. Expensive but unlike anything else around. 8 climbing towers but only 2 entry points. Hard to get down from towers, many one way elements without signage, and no easy way down in most cases. Most times you have to climb higher to het down. And only exit is repelling from each tower. Relaxing patio by lake for in between or afterwards. Bike course, kayaks included.

We tried kayaking and the bike tracks. Everything is extremely clean and well maintained and the staff is very helpful and friendly. The equipment is included in your entrance fee and it is actually decent equipment. This is a great place to spend a full day or even just an hour or two.

Had a fantastic time at The Forge! The workers are well educated on their duties, very kind and extremely patient. I was able to rope climb Zip line and kayak. Ive been back numerous times and highly recommend The Forge!!

You pay a ton of money, then you get there and they make you spend a hundred bucks on more equipment. Then you spend like an hour “training”. Then by the time you finally are able to go on the zip line they make you use this highly complicated system of hooks and stuff which causes you to take close to an entire hour climbing up the whole tower to get to the top. And that’s their only real zip line. Total BS. Nothing like the articles online.

To start, this place is awesome. Tons of unique things to do. Unfortunately at this time there is simply no one onsite that knows anything about rates, how they work or even what they offer. We were talked into season passes for our kids 9 and 11. They weighed them and measured height and were told they could enjoy all the amenities. We booked time the very next day for the both of them and made the trip back just to find out that someone 14 or older would need to be with them at all times. Which means an adult would also either need a year pass or pay the $50 each visit. We asked about a family pass which they do not have. So basically, you would either need to have the same person take them everytime and climb every climb they do and purchase their own yearly pass or pay the $50+ each visit. If your kids are 14+ its worth it. Under that? Youll want to rethink. If youre looking for fun a couple times a year, this place has it. Just wish they had their system ironed out better for families.

Look very closely before purchasing, website is unclear and you might not get what you thought you were paying for. We ended up with a refund and unable to do any activities. Looks like a lot of fun though.
