The Mermaid doesn’t look the grandest from the outside, but it has an event center with two ballrooms. We chose the Coral Bay Ballroom since it had been recently remodeled, and it was BEAUTIFUL. Perfect spot for a wedding reception that didn’t break the bank! They did have a food/beverage minimum that we were required to meet with their catering company, but we didn’t have an issue with that. Natallia worked with us, and despite some email delivery issues, and having a LOT on her plate due to COVID, she made sure everything worked out well for us. For instance, the menu prices had been raised from the time we booked to the next spring when we were choosing the buffet, and she gave us the old prices without a problem. She created a room layout plan for us so all the tables, easels for signs, card/gift tables, etc were right where we wanted them. The room also came with linens, silverware and napkins which was helpful, and we were able to order some appetizers for cocktail hour. They had a bar available, which we didn’t use, but I know there were plenty of options. The food was delicious and I know the guests enjoyed it!

Been here a handful of times now and almost every time there's some sort of service issue. I'm sure other areas of the establishment are better quality because they seem to be much busier regularly, but the dining and arcade end of the business is severely under-managed during the week (haven't been on a weekend). Whether it's one server for the entire space, a few servers and still waiting 20+ minutes for a drink order to be taken, or the latest: My food order was entered wrong, okay sure, easy mistake. And then when I was served the mistake and corrected them, I was then told if I eat what they gave me I'd be charged full price, so I sent it back for my intended cheaper order. Only to be served the attached picture of a sad chips and cheese for a whopping $6.50🤦♀️Unfortunately Taco Bell has better quality chips and cheese than this. The rest of the food I've had there has been decent, a little spendy for the quality but I’ve been okay with things up until this point.

Lanes are nice and the family had fun. Although it was frustrating. We had a big group (9 players) waiting for two lanes on Sautrday night in the middle of league. Half league, half open. We were willing to wait, but were given a vague 20 minute wait time. It ended up being like 45 minutes. The guys were nice, but seemed disorganized. There were some group reservations that they overlooked, which prompted a long wait. Had we known, we could've figured something else for our kiddos to do.

I bring my daughter here often. The pizza and burgers are amazing! The arcades are fun, and the staff are always friendly and helpful. I love bowling on these lanes and seeing familiar faces all the time.
The new management has brought a nice change in atmosphere, and I look forward to returning here frequently to keep having a great time with my daughter. Perfect for families!
My favorite workers on the bowling side you should look for are Keena, Jermaine, Paris, Megan, Kyla, and Amanda!

OMG, we had our sister's bridal shower here on 9/19/2020 and we were treated like queens. The staff where beyond AMAZING and accommodated us to the fullest. We are taken care off from the beginning to the end by Natallia, Kevin, Jesse and so many more who went above and beyond to make it special. The venue is beautiful and the food was amazing but the icing on the cake was the customer service of the staff. Thank you to each and everyone one of you!

Need something to do with the kids in Minnesota?! We checked out Zero Gravity in Mounds View and it was a total win for burning off that endless kid energy 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 They’ve got trampolines, a ninja warrior course, dodgeball, basketball, a rock wall, crash pads, an arcade, and laser tag—basically everything to keep kids (and adults) entertained for hours! And if you’re worried about the littles, there’s a separate toddler trampoline area so they can safely bounce without big kids accidentally sending them flying. 😎🎉 Rain or shine, this place is the perfect spot to let the kiddos jump, climb, and play to their heart’s content! ✨🤩 #zerogravity #minnesotathingstodo #nannylife #trampolinepark #mnhiddengem #rainydayfun #mnactivities #mnfamily #moundsviewmn #zerogravitymn

Always recommend checking Groupon first, the Groupon usually just covers the jumping and not the laser tag or obstacle course though. I've done a birthday party here and would highly recommend using them for kid parties. They have vending machine for snacks, drinks, and ice cream. They have an arcade that's decent, they keep adding new things all of the time it seems.
You need special socks to jump and they are $2.99, unless you bring your own sticky socks.
The guys who work here are helpful and patient and never had an issue with them.
The arcade can win tickets to win random prizes. They've got a jukebox here which is a TouchTunes so you can pay through the app, credit, or cash. They also have a few massage chairs that is $2 for 6 min and goes in increments up to $20 for 60 min.
They've got dodge ball areas, one for smaller kids and another for bigger kids. They've got trampolines in front of basketball hoops which the kids love.
They also have a mini trampoline area for small kids that leads to an indoor park for the little ones.
They have rock climbing that is over a foam pit which the kids love.
The laser tag area is pretty big as well. Overall, I take my kid here often and am considering just buying him an annual pass at this point.

Amazing place for kids and adults to spend time in. We bought the ultimate tickets for our two sons which gives them access to every activity: the trampolin, the ninja area (obstacle course ) and the Lazer tag area. There are area where you can just jump others where you get to play basketball and dodge ball. There is also an area with arcades. You can not bring you own food or drinks to this location. We had snacks and had to eat them outside in the parking lot because we didn't know.

We had an amazing time at Zero Gravity Trampoline Park for our kid’s birthday party! The facility was super clean, well-maintained, and had a great atmosphere. The staff was friendly and helpful, making sure everything ran smoothly. Plus, the pricing was very reasonable for the experience we had. The kids had a blast, and we will definitely be back. Highly recommend for a fun and stress-free party or just a day of jumping fun!

I got the all day pass with Lazer tag. Spent 5 hours with some kids and I got more exercise than a 5 mile hike. Kids loved Lazer tag. Overall nice but some staff seemed distracted by phones sometimes. Not a good recipe for kids running around and jumping in ball pits. We did have a bloody nose situation and no one was around to offer help. My suggestion is go and have fun but bring a first aid kit.

This was a great park I decided to visit at random since it was close to home. I parked in a residential area since the dog park side was so busy. Trails are paved and wind through nice nature areas. There are some dirt paths you can cross through where the flowers and weeds are but I didn't since I saw some snakes and didn't want to stress about it. Pretty birds flew around. Mosquitoes weren't bad at all on the paved trails anyway but there were quite a few near the water and some dirt trails I took to stay off the sidewalks. I didn't see any public restrooms at least where I started and ended. I didn't cut through the dog park but there might be some over there. Lots of people on bikes and I didn't see any children, just adults on this day. No picnic areas that I saw. The dog park is off leash and poop bags are provided. There were a lot of dogs there when I passed by but didn't cut through. One of the paths takes you by some nice townhomes. Very lucky views from their porches. Worth a visit and would go again.

It's a very nice long trail with a few keys areas that are beautiful. However, during covid the path is not very wide and between moving around others and heavy traffic of bikers it was not ideal for a walk with a stroller. That's not the fault of the trail through so it still gets a good rating.

Scenic and picnic and swimming area for kiddos and adults. 2 docks (fishing and boating); with a public restroom area with a couple of portapotties. Swimming area marked off; no lifeguard. Well maintained; and clean beach and lake.

Fall 2025 Update: still pretty green on this trail but some trees are popping! 🍁🍂🌿 Sunday seems to be the day for photo shoots.
Nice, wide paved walkways. Off-leash area for dogs. Loved the trail of trees!

This trail is very good for biking, walking and running. The paths are paved unless you go off trail. I loved taking my dog on this trail then too to the dog park. I would definitely recommend this trail.
