Amazing local business! Will definitely be using them again. The bounce houses were clean, owners were wonderful, went above and beyond while there to help us. Loved the entire experience. Helped us from start to finish. Highly recommend.

The Play House
The Play House at a glance
Customers frequently praise the punctuality of deliveries, clear communication, and reasonable pricing for bounce houses, waterslides, and party furniture. Staff are described as friendly and efficient during setup and pickup, with equipment noted to be clean and in good condition. One negative review cites a significant delivery delay, an incorrect item swap, and a lack of response to refund requests, though this isolated incident contrasts with the overwhelmingly positive feedback regarding reliability and service.

This is our second time using them and I have nothing but great things to say. They have a great selection, super responsive, and very accommodating. We received a ton of compliments on the bounce house for our Halloween party and the kids wouldn’t get out of it. We plan on using them for many years to come!
EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE! I’ve had them for 2-3 separate occasions and they never disappoint! Recommend them 100% On time, polite and fair pricing!
Arrived on time and communicated very well! Everything in great condition and set up per our expectations.
