It Adventure Ropes Course is spectacular!  From the moment you walk inside you are in awe over the lights and the enormity of the course.  The water is shooting up in beautiful cascading colorful bursts, and there are zip-liners buzzing over your head and in all directions whizzing through the sky.  Mind you, the ceiling is very high-we are talking warehouse high!  It’s just an astonishing sight and it makes your adrenaline rush with excitement when you enter.  I was so happy for my kids to take part in the Little It course.  They really love being active and rock climbing so I knew this would be a win for them.  We saw younger kids than even my son’s age (4), who were tackling the Little It seamlessly.  This small indoor ropes course is perfect for younger kids due to their height and ability.  It gave them enough confidence to feel proud, capable and hard-working.  Also they got a sense of thrill while smoothly gliding on a zip line at a height of less than 3 feet above the ground.  They were elated and kept asking my husband and I to watch their latest moves.

There are other activities here: Climb It (rock walls essentially) and Jump It ( a free-fall simulation).  Kids can have functions such as birthday parties and field trips here.   Private events are also booked at this location.  I know you and / or your kids will love It Adventure Ropes Course too-so go! With kids, without kids -it really doesn’t matter.  All who attend will be sure to give It Ropes Course two thumbs up!  The first time visiting, I did not get to attend the ropes course because they do require kids on the Little It get chaperoned by their parents.

At later visits, I was able to enjoy the course with the kids as they are 7 and 9 now and we can all comfortably go on the enormous course together.  I was proud to see how my children were able to manurer the course with confidence and little to no help from me.  I’m not going to say being up this high isn’t intimidating, so it’s understandable if children  feel scared on the course.  If they can overcome that, they will find the course to be  exhilarating and fun!

it took my 4 year old son bit to figure out how to walk and switch directions while attached to the line but he figured it out and is tall enough to reach his pully if it gets stuck somewhere

there is a short “launching ramp” that zips you over the ground a short distance.  the kids loved this area of the course best

The Skinny:

  • Weather :  It doesn’t matter because it’s indoors but save those nice days so you can be outside if possible!  Went went on a grey rainy day
    • Pricing & Admissions : It + Zip It —->ONE HOUR: $27.50 online booking                                                                                            TWO HOUR: $41.25 online booking  (must be at least 42 inches with a chaperone to go on this).                                                                                                             Little It——>ONE HOUR: $11 online booking
  • Location : An indoor ropes course for all ages (seriously, if you can walk, you can likely participate)  offering zip-lining, climbing and a free-fall simulation
  • Parking : Plenty of parking here because this is inside the Jordan’s furniture store.
  • Hours :  Mon-Thurs: 10 am to 7 pm, Friday & Saturday: 10 am to 8 pm, Sunday: 11 am to 6 pm
  • Duration : We stayed about 1.5 hours here on the Little It ropes course and exploring a but
  • Tips and Recommendations :  There is a place to sit and be spectators or grab dipping dots and snacks from the vending machines inside the ropes course area.  There are lockers to store your items while on the various adventures.  A fee may apply. It is worth while to book the tickets on-line in advance for guaranteed activities as staffing shortages didn’t permit the rock wall area to be open.  They are a cash-free location so you can book ahead or pay by card only.
  • Cons : I got bored chaperoning my kids on the Little It for an hour, they didn’t though.  I wanted to go the big course but obviously kids feel more secure with their parents assistance and love to show you all their moves.  Just be prepared to for boredom with a full hour of supervising and no actual activity yourself.
