Paradise Park Novi in Novi, Michigan is more than just a family entertainment center — it's a 10-acre destination packed with over 10 attractions including go-karts, laser tag, an 18-hole mini golf course, a climbing wall, euro bungy, trampoline center, miniature bowling, a fun slide, and a state-of-the-art arcade. Admission and parking are free.
But the real story is the man behind it. Jeff Wainwrite spent years as Executive Vice President for a major Japanese electronics corporation, overseeing North and South American operations — until his kids pushed him to make a change. In 2005, he opened Paradise Park with a simple vision, and two decades later it's evolved into one of the most versatile event venues in Oakland County, hosting over 1,600 events a year ranging from birthday parties and corporate outings to bar and bat mitzvahs, wedding receptions, graduation parties, and overnight lock-ins.
