About the Venue

Monon Station is a community-center indoor playground inside the Monon Community Center, giving families a more programmed recreation-center feel than a commercial chain park. Attractions include climbing, soft play, and STEM-style activity elements. It is a strong option for Carmel-area families who want a substantial indoor playroom without the full energy level of a trampoline park.
