About the Venue

The Rough Rider Center continues to list an indoor playground among its family amenities, making it one of Watford City's key indoor options for younger kids. The center also runs Tot Time for ages 5 and under and offers party and rental options through the larger facility. It is a good fit for families who want a lower-key community-center play stop rather than a commercial attraction.
