From the reviews
Went on a weekday for a birthday party, and they upgraded the inside new machines, and a jungle gym area for the kids, the outside waterpark was nice, no waiting time to get into the slides. The lazy river was nice. The 2 pools were nice as well. The lockers/restroom area was pretty clean and spacious .
We love it here. My kids cry to go home EVERYTIME. The water park is awesome, and the water is super cold even dead mid-August (i dont know why). The arcade is awesome even for us adults.
Held my son’s 10th bday party here and we had a ball. I did the laser package and the kids absolutely enjoyed. Amelia was a great host and she basically gathered the kids from the party room and took them around as a group to enjoy the festivities. No stress or hassle for birthday momma.
Late review We visited in july and stayed here at the hotel next to the park for 2 nights Im reviewing the park facility The water park was ok, line is long as it was the weekend, the lifeguards are consistent to reinforcing the rules, i appreciate that.
Birthday parties at The Funplex
The Funplex hosts birthday parties — confirmed on their own site. Go-kart parties usually come with a dedicated host who runs the races, sorts everyone into heats, and handles setup and cleanup — so parents can mostly watch the racing. Packages typically bundle a set number of races with a party room, pizza, and drinks, and many tracks put younger guests in junior karts. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular tracks.
Junior karts at The Funplex
Reviews and the track's own info mention junior or kid-sized karts at The Funplex — lower-speed cadet karts, junior sessions, or height-based karts, usually for ages around 5–8. Age and height requirements change often, so check the current rules before you plan a trip around one.
Adult & high-speed racing at The Funplex
The Funplex comes up for adult and high-speed racing — pro karts, timed and competitive racing, league nights, or arrive-and-drive sessions, going by reviews and the track's own info. Faster karts mean real wheel-to-wheel racing without dodging little kids, and tracks that run them often take league sign-ups and group bookings. Schedules vary a lot track to track, so check the calendar or call before you rally the squad.
Group & corporate events at The Funplex
The Funplex is mentioned for group and corporate events — team building, work outings, bachelor and bachelorette parties, or big-group racing.
