Extreme Sandbox

Definitely a worthy business with employees /​owners that are crazy nice and friendly. Super fun place perfect for company get togethers or just having fun with friends and family.

Extremely fun, and an extremely cool experience.
I came with my dad and we did the Dueling Excavators. It was a blast! We battled with 19 ton excavators by digging holes and doing an obstacle course (I won).
My dad would want me to add his bit, staff was «very professional». Which they were! They were humorous, and very accommodating. We were going to be late due to my work schedule and the location (which isn’t actually that far), and we ended up being more late than we expected and they were kind enough and lucky enough and things worked out for us.
Adam was our instructor/​fun coordinator and he was awesome! He had a great sense of humor, taught us well, and encouraged safety and fun.
FYI this place is open ALL SEASONS! The inside of the excavator is fully enclosed, so on the 80 degree day I went, I had the AC blasting, and when you go in the winter, you’ll still be nice and cozy inside! And think of how cool it would look digging around with snow scattered on the ground.
If you’re looking for some extreme fun, and a unique activity, definitely come here. They do group deals too, if you’re keen on coming with work friends or a bachelorette party or something (yes, bachelorETTE. girls can play with big toys too).

Very unique experience. We ended up getting there half an hour early because I wasn’t sure how much additional time the detour would take. Because of the mass amount of rain we’ve been getting, the more direct route was closed. Fortunately they emailed us a couple days in advance an alternate route. It was kind of a long drive through farm fields, but it was worth it. I got a livingsocial coupon otherwise it would have been really expensive. Cancellation policy seems pretty strict needing a 72 hour or more notice for a full refund, anything less is only a 50% to zero refund, 48 hour and less I believe. Only reason why I paid attention was my boyfriend was feeling pretty sick at the beginning of the week and we weren’t sure if he would be feeling up to it on Friday.
Training vids were pretty straightforward and we opted to use a video drone to take footage of us when we were out on the course. I didn’t want to fiddle with my phone while operating an excavator anyway although it would have been nice to take a picture of the car I lifted. The only thing that worried me was how I got blank stares when I asked for my wristlet back since they promised they would store it in the office for me. Silly me, what did I expect from a bunch of guys. They didn’t know what a wristlet was. After I explained it was kind of like a black purse it was returned to me safe and sound. They definitely had a sense of humor and lots of patience teaching noobs like me and my boyfriend how to operate the equipment. It wasn’t just digging holes either. There was an obstacle course to drive around and play with tennis balls, cones, basketballs, tires, hills, etc.

This was so much fun!!! After a brief set of instructional videos we headed out to the equipment. The two gentlemen that run the business were very friendly and funny! The instructions they provided allowed us to start using the equipment quite efficiently with minimal effort. We chose to do the dueling excavators for a little friendly husband and wife competition… it was so much fun as the headsets they give you allow you to speak with your instructor but also each other. The obstacle course for the excavators was challenging but not to difficult. Overall… we couldn’t stop smiling after we were done… we would recommend this to anyone looking for a great time!!!

YES! I had so much fun here! Its a little bit off the beaten path but easy to find. It is run by two super nice and hilarious gentlemen. Def check out their website. You can choose between 3 pieces of construction equipment (I picked the excavator, or as my 2 yr old says, the digger) when you make your reservation. I really loved the digger, it was a blast. When you show up to your appointment you get some safety instruction and the basics on how to run the machinery. Then you get to play! You wear this headset so you can hear and talk to everyone while you’re doing your thing so if (when!) you forget how to run it you can get some assistance. =) There is an obstacle course that is pretty sweet and its fun to challenge your new skills. I did see a smashed up car in the corner of the lot so that may be a possible activity as well. I think you can participate starting at age 14.
