I took my son and his two friends on a weekday. The staff was exceptionally kind and patient. I had one child who became anxious with the high ropes, and then my son had a big chatty personality. They were so wonderful with the kids!! We participated in gem mining, escape room, and high ropes. It was a great time, and we look forward to going back. Thank you so much for a fun day!

Extremely disappointed with my experience at Extreme Park in Durham. A competitive team called Team Venom—with rapid-fire, heavily modified guns and fully custom uniforms—was allowed to play against casual players like us, many of whom hadn’t played in years. It was completely unbalanced and not fun.

We were thrown into an 8v18 match and got destroyed. They were shooting us in our spawn, and we literally couldn’t move or play. We called for the refs to end the game, and they still let it continue. When we expressed how unfair it was, the refs just said “they’re members and bring in a lot of money,” as if that excused it.

It’s clear this team takes things very seriously—custom jerseys, advanced gear, and nonstop aggression—yet they were allowed to dominate casuals with no oversight. I paid for a fair and fun experience, not to get steamrolled by a semi-pro team. I’ll be contacting my bank for a refund because this wasn’t what was promised or advertised.

If you’re a casual player just looking to have fun, avoid this place on a Saturday .

A wonderful multi experience venue, offering a fantastic And challenging ropes course, zip lines, escape room, laser tag, and paintball!
We did the rope course this time and managed to complete all 3 levels, but it's tough to do in an hour!

This place is so fun for paintball! They were able to accommodate our party of 16 people. All three fields we did were challenging but also safe. Definitely one of the most fun things we’ve done together as a group.

We went ziplining for my son’s 13th birthday and had an amazing time! The entire experience was fun, safe, and so well organized. What really made it stand out were the guides—they were absolutely fantastic! Super friendly, knowledgeable, and great with both kids and adults. They made everyone feel comfortable and kept the energy high the whole time. You can tell they love what they do, and it made our experience even more special. Highly recommend for families, birthdays, or anyone looking for a little adventure!
