The reason this is only three stars is because, as other people have mentioned, they only accept cash and don't do a discount for late entry. We arrived at 3pm, not realising the venue closed at 4 (pretty early in my opinion). They still charged us full price - which at $15 is not cheap - (although the manager kindly did bring me a free coffee). By comparison, SuperZu in Dingley Village closes at 5pm and accepts credit cards as well as doing a big discount for later entry. Seriously, what is with not accepting credit cards - this is the 21st century! Luckily I had the cash and didn't need to use their ATM, which apparently charges exorbitant fees. These seemingly small things make a big difference to people's experience and satisfaction. The kids loved this place and had a great time. However, Inflatable World needs to work harder to love the people who are paying - the adults.

Nice enough park just off princes hwy and ferntree gully rd. It incorporates old brick making machinery that's apart of local history. It's connected to the scotchmans creek trail so it makes a great place to take a break. The 2 highlights of park for me are the pond that is home to numerous ducks and the fantastic cacti garden. Also features a great bbq area and playground.
TIP: ample parking on Stamford rd

The manager went out of his way to make up for a poor experience on the go-karts, thanks to reckless and aggressive driving by a bunch of kids. It was like dodgem cars - very intimidating for my 10-year-old driving for the first time and it spoiled the experience for her. Actually enforcing the rules about no bumping and no cutting up other drivers would make for a much more pleasant experience. Those kids should have been pit stopped. Anyway, the manager couldn't have been nicer, made it up to us and has won back our business.

Melbournes best paintball field only 20 mins from CBD. Largest indoor facility in the Southern Hemisphere with 4 different themed fields. Open 7 days. Enjoy a drink after game in the bar. Easy bookings online too.

Great way to spend a day with friends. Best to go in a group of 10 or greater however they can accommodate smaller.

Interesting park. It's a garden,footy oval and cemetery all in one. fascinating and sombre walking amongst 100 year old graves. there are so many lovely buildings around park. the oval itself is a lovely ground with a great grandstand that is the home of the TAC team Oakleigh Chargers

very enjoyable park that has room for improvement. love the bushland setting and the large open spaces. Don't like the constant sound of traffic. would love for the bushland to be incorporated more eg have info signs on the different trees. maybe utilise more of open spaces
