My 14 year old son and I were looking for something to do and we stopped by this place. We rode the go-karts which is a multi-level wooden track which was pretty cool. The go-karts were $7 each plus tax for a 4-minute ride which was okay. They have a lot of staff on site monitoring the track which is... More

Not for kids. This place is dirty and rough. The 2 main attractions are exciting to watch but pricey to do and after riding the go-carts and seeing poor safety practices, I would pass. But if you like danger, this place is for you since there is a real chance you could actually die. Teens running this place filling hot... More

We always try to find a new attraction to visit when our 6 year old grandson comes from Ohio to visit us at The Villages. We heard about Magical Midway and decided to give it a try. The arm bands for unlimited rides was a great deal. Although not old enough to drive the go carts his Grandpa sure enjoyed... More

You will get more bang for your buck at Fun Spot, the rides are bigger, newer, and carts faster. More

The slingshot was awesome and they have a swing that goes 150ft in the air. Pretty cool, but I'm terrified of heights. Gets kind of pricey. More

First thing I should point out is that the parking is limited at this facility. You may need to use an outside lot to park your vehicle. Admission to the park is free, but the attractions themselves cost money. Many of the tamer rides are included with the armband package with the go-kart rides (multiple tracks with multiple levels!), but... More

The money would be better spent invested into a theme park ticket for Universal or Disney. But if you've done those and crave carnival-class rides and questionable clientele, then by all means, knock yourself out. More

I think we were on the go-karts nearly every night and loved them. They were a bit expensive the race time a bit short and some karts much faster and slower than others but a good time was had. The front staff could do with learning to smile though. More
