I used to spend a half day on the island when I was a kid. I didn't go back until recently and not much has changed. I still love it.

Pros:

Exploring & remembering your youth.

Cons:

No rides and the quick service location is only open occasionally.

I can't believe how many people don't bother riding the raft over to this great gem. This is so cool! Caves to explore. Rocking bridges to cross. Trails to hike through. A frontier fort to play in. I could go on. This place is a kid's dream for playing pretend. My son loved it when he was little, and we always made sure to spend time here. As he got older and had read Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, he loved it even more. The theming is off the charts. Little kids can really let off some energy. Aunt Polly's (when it's open) is so cool. Get a lemonade and a PBJ and then just sit in a rocking chair and relax.

Pros:

Great place for kids to play. Details and theming are fantastic! Great break from the rides and crowds.

Cons:

None

Great place to let your kids burn off some energy. Not typically crowded so you can get a little bit of peacefulness when you are over there.

Pros:

Lots of shade, fun exploring for kids

Cons:

Wish it was easier to get to, the boat ride can eat up some time if there are a lot of people headed over there and you have to wait.

This place is awesome!! Some people may complain that it is just a big playground for kids! It is so what’s your point!!! This place is really fun even for grown up kids like me!!

Pros:

This place is really fun!! Unfortunately, I don’t think enough people take the time to try it!! Some people may actually find out that they truly enjoy it if they just took the time to give it a chance!!

Cons:

Some people may complain it’s just a big playground!! However, I don’t think that is a bad thing!

Not enough people know about this place and plus the hours that it’s open is short, but it’s so fun and it brings out the inner child in me

Pros:

So many things to do and explore

Cons:

Gotta hop on a raft to get here and they aren’t open that long
