Lava Island Opens in Eden Prairie: A New Indoor Play Oasis for Twin Cities Families
East-metro families just gained a major new weekend destination. Lava Island has officially opened in Eden Prairie, delivering a full indoor play oasis designed for toddlers through pre-teens — along with spaces for parents to relax while the kids burn off energy.
Located at 12400 Castlemoor Drive, the space blends all the essentials under one roof: a huge multi-level adventure playground, themed birthday rooms, and a café-style menu packed with crowd-pleasers like pizza, wings, and smoothies.
If you’ve ever wished for one-stop convenience instead of bouncing between activities, Lava Island is built for exactly that.
All-In-One Play for All Ages
The new Eden Prairie location offers:
• Full-scale indoor play zones for a wide range of ages
• Dedicated areas for toddlers
• Larger climbing and adventure structures for older kids
• Themed birthday rooms ready for celebrations
• On-site food and beverages to keep the experience going
That combination gives families a way to dine, play, and celebrate without leaving the building — a welcome change from juggling drop-offs, pickups, and multiple stops.
A Game-Changer for East-Metro Families
Even though Lava Island sits in Eden Prairie, families from Woodbury, Afton, Stillwater, Lake Elmo and across the east metro are taking notice. For parents searching for low-stress outings — especially during colder months — this new indoor destination offers both convenience and comfort.
Whether you’re planning a birthday party, a midday play session, or a casual meet-up with other parents, the facility is designed to make the experience seamless.
Pro tip: weekday midday hours might deliver the fewest crowds.
Your New Weekend Solution
If you’ve ever had the “what should we do this weekend?” conversation, this place answers it. Lava Island is built to simplify family time, from quick play breaks to full-on celebrations.
Tag someone who needs this in their life — and save it for your next family outing.
