Gold mining is a bit expensive and the kids got bored very quickly. Our kids are 3, 7, and 9. Maybe older kids would stay engaged longer.

Do not eat at the Big Thunder Bar and Grill on site. Over priced and hair in our food didn't apologize for it only discounted the food didn't offer to make new food though we wouldn't have taken it. Local people suggest not to eat there too.
