Pirates' Cove Children's Theme Park - Amusement park in Elk Grove Village - 901 Leicester Rd, USA

This little amusement park is the perfect size for toddlers and great age appropriate activities for littles. I would say ages 2-7 is the sweet spot for Pirate’s Cove. They everything from a merry-go-round to paddle boats, trains, bouncy house and more. If you haven’t been, do it! It’s a super fun family activity, and they have a picnic area on the pirate ship. What’s not to love?!

Fun place for ages 3-7. It was not interesting for a 9y.o. but still something a 9 yo could participate in. Many daycare groups were there on the day we went. Lines were a little long but tolerable. I would take my younger child again but I would want to meet up with some of her friends so she would actually want to do stuff since we only did the options that allowed a parent to participate.

Small, but fun! Not overwhelming, easy to keep track of your kiddo. Clean, nice restrooms, water fountain with bottle refill station, pleasant staff. Cheap souvenirs. You can bring own food and eat it inside. My 7 year old loved it! Adults are free, since you cannot get on anything apart from train and large slide, $15 for non-resident child. I think it was well worth the 3 hours we spent there. Highly recommend!

Talk about full circle, I’ve been coming here since I was a young child myself and now 30+ years later I’m bringing my children here! There was face painting today which was even more special! It was PACKED but even so, there were short lines and everything moved quickly. It was nice that there were little sprinklers to cool down with. It was very affordable and you can spend 2-4 hours there easily.

I have taken all my kids here, and the oldest loved seeing her little brother play at the same place she did.

My 5 year-old and 3 year-old both had lots of fun here. There were kids younger and older than them that also looked like they were enjoying the various rides. The big slide with burlap sacks to go down and the boats you can paddle were the most fun. We went on a Saturday and arrived just after the park opened at 9am, and it was not crowded at all. By 11am, it was crowded, and people were having a hard time finding a parking spot. Still, the park didn't feel too crowded, and the lines were still not very long. Pack a snack, and you can eat it in the huge pirate ship in the center of the park. Would definitely go back!

Really cute and a really great concept. They also don't charge for under the age of 2 because they don't know if at that age they'll be comfortable with the rides since their parents can't come on. Ours loved the park and slide, but he was too scared to try anything else.

Omg my kids had so much fun!!! The only reason I gave 4 stars, is because I wish they had a few more attractions. But its Great for the little ones. Maybe 11 and younger.....
