Went there last week. The staff were horrible acted like we were bothering them to do their jobs and treated us like we were gonna steal stuff. Only 2 of the little kids rides worked, There were no animals in the petting zoo. No one told us when paying, i wouldnt have taken my 3yr old. There is geese feces everywhere. The slide water is being pumped in from a river so its disgusting brown color. The train worked so that was a plus until you got to drive by all the garbage they have put in the woods and tunnel. Would never go back, they have really let it go down hill.
This place hasn't been touched since I was a kid, 25yrs ago! Half the rides (and i use that term loosely) are never running. The place is dirty, neglected and broken! 10 years ago the owner once got in an argument with my mom in front of our young children, when she complained about the conditions. Even cursed at her! UNACCEPTABLE!! I swore I'd never go back! But we had a family get together last summer there and i reluctantly went......I'm sorry I spent the money! NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!
Very over priced, rides not working including the train. Waterslide exit pool green and slimy by the end of the day. Should be condemned for health reasons. As a Nova Scotian I was embarrassed. The kids did have a blast on the waterslides the whole day but I think they picked up a virus from the water???
If you're looking for some fun on the water slides, then you might as well visit. That's pretty much the only attraction left at the park.The rest of the park, however, is extremely run down and the owners seem to not care for its maintenance anymore. As a kid, this place was the best - water slides, a well maintained pool, almost new rides, fun staff, and a gift shop full of beanie babies. Nowadays, it seems that the place was left to rot. There's not many attractions in the park left, and their swing ride has been laying there for at least five years now - I highly doubt it will ever be finished. The staff are treated poorly, we've seen them yelled at several times. It used to be great, but there isn't much left - all the while the admission price has seemed to increase. Hopefully someone will take it over and return it to its former glory.
We had a great day at Magic Valley. The water slides are perfect for young children. My daughter enjoyed the three rides that were up and running. especially flying in the airplanes. The food was very reasonally priced. We took our own drinks in with us. My daughter loved the ice cream cones and I loved the prices of them. The train was not working and the castle was closed due to the bunnies not working. However my daughter did not know so she didn't care. She enjoyed playing mini golf or as she calls it "hockey ball" lol. The bumper boats were fun and I love that they allow young children to sit on your lap on the bumper boats and on the bigger water slides as well : ) Where it is a nice quiet place to go it is fabulous to go somewhere where the line ups are barely there and you get to go on the water slides and other rides very quickly. Myself I enjoy going out on the paddle boats. Seems they had some newer ones and they were nice to be on.The only major thing missing was the animals but my daugher once again didn't know they were suppose to be there so she didn't care. We had a great family day with her and I was so happy seeing her have fun where I have been going since it opened in 1971. I will take her back again next year.
The ads make it sound like a great fun park but most of the rides were out of service and had been for a # of years. The only farm animals we seen were 2 sheep and some bunnies. Way too expensive for what they offer. Small water slide was okay but water very cold and no one at top to control children. Kids from 6-12 probably would enjoy the bumper and peddle boats. Food expensive and it took forever to get a hot dog. I'm sure in it's day this was a great play area but needs upgrading or close down.
What a rip-off. I took my three year old daughter to this place yesterday. She was so looking forward to it. There are not words to explain how bad it was. Hardly anything was working, except the train which was falling to pieces. The water slide was green and slimy and there was no way I was going close to it. There were not even any animals to see. I could go on but there is no point. I tried to get to see a Manager when I was there, but the place is staffed with young people (or as I would call them 'cannon fodder'), who told me no-one was available. I telephoned this morning and eventually got to speak to someone. When I asked why no-one had told me most of the rides were not working before I paid the admission, he put the phone down. DO NOT, REPEAT, DO NOT GO THERE.
run down amusement park, almost everything was broken or "closed for the day" as staff told us... I'd save my money and goto crytal palace in moncton or over to Cavendish, PEI
None of the rides work, their 'petting zoo' has one rabbit.. seriously, who has one rabbit? Their storybook village half of it is closed.. complete waste of money!
My 8 year old son and I had a wonderful time at Magic Valley fun park today! It was cloudy so not many people were there, but the staff were wonderful and rides sooooo much fun! Bumper boats were great, pedal boats relaxing, waterslides super whizzy and little fairground rides and Fairy Tale 'cottages' and scenes in the grounds just delightful! It is an older park and yes the water is hard so water rides are tarnished, but everything smells of chlorine and is clean and the pool was heavenly, on a warm afternoon. We stayed 5 hours and only gave up as we were getting sunburnt - there are picnic tables in shade and plenty of loely trees and shrubs in the well kept grounds. No lockers though. If you want a fun day out ( and we NEVER lined up for a ride at all!!!) and are practical about the age of things I am sure you'll have a fabulous time as we did!
