From the reviews

Our family had a great time at this amusement park. As per the website, there was no food or drink accommodations, but it is not completely fenced in, so you can easily get to the local restaurants/bars right next to it.

★★★★★ — Rene, Jan 2023

I went here on my last night in south padre back in July and had a great time! The slingshot ride was fast and was a lot of fun and I also enjoyed the skydiving ride as well.

★★★★★ — Michael, Dec 2021

It was fun. Each ride is priced individually, so you can pick and choose what you want to ride and pay for. On skyrocket 1,2 , or 3 people can go. The go carts are singles and doubles. They alternate which carts go for 5 or 6 laps. There were 9 single carts and 9 double carts in operation at the time we went.

★★★★☆ — Brenetta, Jun 2023

This place is fun. It is setup in a parking lot, what looks like permanently. There are no food or drinks available, though there are some bars and food trucks a little ways down, just not on site.
