About Adventure Park USA - Our story began in 1980 when our family opened Frederick Putt-Putt Golf and Games on Thomas Johnson Drive in Frederick, MD. We took pride in bringing people together to create lasting memories with their friends and loved ones. It was always our aspiration to expand, and build a place where everyone could find something to enjoy. After many years of hard work and dedication, we were finally able to open Adventure Park USA in 2005. It was truly our version of the American dream, right here in Monrovia, MD. 

At Adventure Park USA, we want people to feel welcome, rain or shine, all year round. We have been a part of this community for almost 40 years, so we understand your needs for a variety of exciting activities. Our unique western themed family entertainment center was developed with you in mind. Inside you can find: West World laser Tag, Rustler’s Ridge Rock Wall, Hang ‘em High Ropes Course, Spin Zone Bumper Cars, Gold Rush Playground and Hologate Virtual Reality. Our Stampede Arcade is stocked with more than 80 of your favorite games. As our park continued to grow, we added pre-school, before and after school care, summer camps, convenient birthday party packages, and options for groups and corporate events. We also have a host of exciting outdoor attractions like the Wild West Express, Blazing Trail Go-Karts, and the WildCat Roller Coaster. If you like mini-golf, check out one of our 18 hole courses: Thundering Falls and Dry Gulch. We are a local veteran family owned and operated business, and we hope that you’ll allow us to bring our passion for family entertainment to you. http://AdventureParkUSA.com

The Adventure Park USA story:


Located on a sprawling piece of land just outside the bustling City of Frederick, Maryland, the owner-operator amusement park stands as a testament to the vision and dedication of Larry Stottlemyer. With a dream to create a one-of-a-kind entertainment destination, Larry poured his heart and soul into the development of this state-of-the-art facility, and his efforts have certainly paid off.


From humble beginnings, this family-owned park has grown into an enchanting wonderland, boasting a plethora of attractions that cater to visitors of all ages. With over 20 different rides, both indoor and outdoor, thrill-seekers are guaranteed an adrenaline-fueled adventure. From classic roller coasters that twist and turn through the air to gentle carousels that bring smiles to the faces of children, the park offers a diverse range of experiences to suit every taste.


However, the attractions are not the only draw of this extraordinary amusement park. Nestled within its vibrant grounds is the Whistle Stop Restaurant & Saloon, a culinary haven specializing in mouthwatering barbeque. From succulent ribs glazed with a tangy sauce to tender pulled pork sandwiches, the tantalizing aroma wafting from the restaurant entices visitors from far and wide. The rustic ambiance of the saloon, complete with wooden decor and live country music, adds a charming touch to the dining experience.


Recognizing the needs of families, the park also provides world-class daycare services, ensuring that parents can fully immerse themselves in the excitement while their little ones are well taken care of.

With thrilling rides, delectable food, top-tier daycare services, and versatile event spaces, this family-owned gem has become a cherished destination for making cherished memories.


As time has passed and the owner-operator amusement park has flourished, the torch of leadership has been passed on to the next generation. Erik Stottlemyer, Larry's son, has stepped into the role of President and CEO, ensuring that the legacy of Adventure Park USA continues to thrive.


With a deep understanding of the park's core values and a passion for creating unforgettable experiences, Erik brings fresh ideas and innovation to the table.
