We just had my daughter’s first birthday party at Waterlemon and we had a wonderful experience! From the beginning Nina was so helpful and great with communication, making sure all of the details were perfected before the event. The venue was very clean, adorable + I got so many compliments from my guests. The staff were also so friendly + accommodating. I couldn’t recommend this place enough! Will definitely be booking again in the future.

This is the worst children's playroom I have ever been to. It is very dirty! Every toy for the children is dirty. No one came to put the toys for the children away, the toys are everywhere. everything is scattered and horrible. The toilet is very dirty! I do not recommend this place!

I love Waterlemon! We had my daughters birthday here last weekend and I seriously can’t say enough great things about Waterlemon. I have hosted many parties before and this by far has been the most easiest, simple, stress free process. Nina the owner took care of everything I wanted from the color scheme, to giving me tips on decor. She’s amazing, sweet, and super helpful. Jaiden who took care of us the actual day of the party was the best! She helped me hanging things, had great opinions on decor, and was super sweet to my family and I.

The space was so clean! The kids had so much fun. My family really loved the space! I’m so happy we chose Waterlemon!

We had our daughter's 2 year old birthday here and it was sincerely perfect. We had guests from 3 months old to 80+ and everyone had a wonderful time! The space itself is delightful and perfect for kids across a wide age range. The older kids loved guiding the younger ones around, and the little ones were able to use almost everything available. I felt like I was able to keep an eye on my kid and the other children while also talking to adult guests and ensuring they had a great time too. Not that I had to do much at all; everything was taken care of by Waterlemon so beautifully. We really appreciate the attention Nina gave to this party, and the staff (Jalene, sorry if I'm spelling that wrong!) was so helpful and attended to our every question and need.

It really means a lot to us that we can give our daughter memorable birthdays that capture the beauty of her through everything she loves. The decor, set up, catering, and extras were so special. We did an airplane theme since she's always delighted to see them in the sky, and it'll help us remember this little moment of time in her life. Thank you for such a perfect day!

We recently had our 1 yr old’s birthday party through Waterlemon at the RSC and it did not disappoint! The venue is aesthetic/beautiful (honestly don’t even need much in terms of decor) and perfect for hosting adults and kids with activities and more than enough space for everyone! Nina was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the planning process and in helping us set up for the party the day of. Appreciated all of her insight/guidance as I am not the best planner! We received so many compliments from our guests- super happy with how everything turned out. Highly recommend Waterlemon!

We have been brining our daughter to play at Waterlemon for awhile now and there was no doubt in our mind when it came to her birthday where we would want to host it! Nina is the most gracious owner, always welcoming, and made planning our party so seamless and fun! We opted for their party package at the Riverside Swim Club, which comes complete with pretty much everything you could want/need for your party. It's days later now and our guests are still raving about the venue and our party. Thank you Nina for going above and beyond to make our celebration so memorable!

Do not recommend. Planned our event from out of state for my sister’s baby shower (so all of our family in the Midwest would be able to attend). Host failed to mention the art fair was happening which made things significantly more complicated. Paid nearly $1000 simply to rent the space with no extra service provided, and we were ushered out 15 min prior to the end of our booked time. We had many gifts to load up and our ride was having trouble getting through the fair traffic, so it would have been nice if the host didn’t rush us out before the end of our paid time slot. It is my opinion that this place is way too overpriced for simply renting out a space. If more was included I would understand, but we did everything on our own. Set up, clean up, food/drinks. In addition, there is no parking. I understand this is a circumstance the owner has no control over, however, she refused to let us use the very accessible back door to the building that would have given us easy access to the alley to load up our car. Overall it was a very negative experience. This is the first negative review I have ever given in my life, I’m not one to leave negative reviews because I think most people/business owners are just trying their best and deserve grace. But I was so highly disappointed in this experience.

Celebrated my daughter’s 2nd birthday at Waterlemon this weekend and I would do it again! Totally recommend Waterlemon for birthday parties for your littles and open play. My daughter enjoys coming her for open play, it’s clean, so much for her to do and engage with that it only felt right to host her birthday here too! We had the best fete package with a few add ons: extra hour, display wall, dessert cart, BYOW, additional balloons (some that I had purchased on my own and filled with helium at Waterlemon) and additional pizzas. Nina, owner of Waterlemon, and I communicated several times throughout the months to bring my vision to life. Nina was always available for questions and support each time. Her staff, Jaylene, the day of the event was available for questions and support, offered help, and updated me with reminders of 45 mins and 30mins left for the event to end. It was a delight working with Nina and Jaylene, I felt confident that my vision was being executed. Our guest raved about Waterlemon the entire time, the kiddos attended did not ever stop having a good time!
