Such a great local coffee shop. Great treats (even gluten free options) and great drinks. Also not a bad spot to stop for a quick lunch. Talented "mixologists" so make sure you stop and have them make you something special in a cup.

Entertainment & Family Fun

This recommendation comes to you directly from our kids. They would tell your kids it is a must. Our daughter says the zipline is must. Another favorite is the parkour course. If you have a few hours. Take your kids here to burn some energy.

If cars are your thing this is quite the place. Ernie Adams, the originator of the dwarf car has made a name for himself building dwarf racecars and scaled down replicas of classic cars. You can find these at his personal shop, in Maricopa. Well worth the drive. There is no cost to go in, donations only.
