Kangaroo Palace Outdoor Rentals

01/09/2024

I am looking for a mechanic that is available and capable of changing a front u-joint on a 2018 ram 2500. I already have the part so I would only need the labor. Any thoughts? The dealership can do it Monday but I would prefer sooner.

We still have some limited opening for the month of October. Bounce houses for great with bonfires! And don’t forget, we do take reservations year round if you wish to have an event in an indoor location. We have some that are only 11’ tall but still provide fun. I hope everyone has enjoyed thier summers. 2312062157 for info and booking.

As we are wrapping up rental season we have decided to make a couple of changes. Jeff normally handles all of our rentals, but Emily will be taking over next season as with the help of Jeff. Emily is qualified, hard working, articulate, and understanding. She knows inflatables just as well as I. She works great with the community and has a way with people and children. There’s absolutely no doubt that everyone is good hands.

We will no longer be booking events through Facebook messenger. We will still send prices, answer questions, etc but when it comes to the actual booking of the event we will be doing it over phone. Jeff’s number is already listed on here but since Emily is taking over her number will be listed on this post, which will be pinned at the top of our page. Emily’s number is 231-286-2309 please leave a voicemail when you call with your Name and Number and she will respond within a timely matter.

We would like to thank all of our wonderful customers for your support over the last 8 years. We love doing this for our community and maybe looking forward to a couple new units next year😉

We are open and taking reservations for rentals. Our Schedule is more limited than in previous years but we are more than able to accommodate most events. Staffing has been our biggest hurdle as with many small businesses and some of our policies have changed as a result. Thank you for 9 great years in the rental business. Give us a shout 231-206-2157.

Friends, I apologize I have not posted more updates. The real estate end of everything is complete. I have posted pictures of the last few days of kangaroo palace. Bittersweet for me.

First I apologize for not updating the phones, webstite, hours etc...I have been very busy preparing the kp building for its new owner and Removing our assets. We wish Clay and crew the very best. They will maintain the building for many years to come I am sure.

That being said I have completed my purchase of one two parts of our new ventures. (Kp outdoor rentals is still operating and getting some needed upgrades) The first and main part was the purchase of 4775 e apple avenue and is complete. It was a former daycare that was recently renovated. I purchased it near to completion and have a few months of construction and administration to complete before we will be opening.

It will be called Apple Snack Shack and will offer coffee, protein shakes, lunch and fried foods, our kp pizza, salads, peanut brittle and seafoam by the bag full and much more. We plan to offer done in, take-out and drive through.

The second venture is yet to come as the real estate deal is not yet complete but I think it is cool as well and will announce more ASAP.

Thanks again muskegon for your support. I will continue to support muskegon any way I can. Also, I really look forward to being a part of the Sullivan, egelston and Ravenna communities.

My kids and I wish to thank everyone once again for all of your business and support over the years. We have had our ups and downs but all together I would say that kangaroo Palace was a great success. We took a building that had been vacant for just over ten years and turned it into a place almost everyone in muskegon at least knows about and where it is. I am not sure how to put into words how much that means to me. Also when negative things happened the community almost always showed me support. I cannot thank all of you enough for that.

With that being said tomorrow is our last day of operation as kp indoor bounce. I will be there most of the day and hope to see everyone who can make it one last time.

This is certainly not the end for KP. We are simply adapting with the times. I am almost complete with a purchase on apple avenue where we intend to open what we believe will be called “Apple snack Shack.” We will serve Munchy food and our pizza in a drive though, sit down and delivery environment. We are also have another surprise in store that will be an addition to the restaurant eventually but as laws are just changing (not pot) we are reluctant to say just yet. However I will say it is related to something muskegon used to have but lost in 2008. I cannot being the whole thing back but maybe the next best thing...sorry for the suspense.

Also we will have a very large parking lot at our new place where we could very easily have bounce days. So we have that to look forward to as well. Sorry for the long post and once again thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope to see as many pope as I can between now and then. We will be there today from 2-4 and tomorrow from noon to six.

As we are in our final month of business we have a couple announcements...

On Friday December 27th we will have one last big celebration party. More details to come this week.

We will not be selling gift cards or bounce passes this holiday season. We are sorry but we feel 4 days just doesn’t give anyone enough time to use those.

All gift cards and bounce passes will be accepted until the day we close (December 29th)

As we get closer to closing please be aware that we will slowly be moving/getting rid of things we no longer need. This includes some of the toddler equipment on the play floor, extra tables, benches, and chairs. We will make sure we still have the necessary items to make a great, fun, and safe experience for your family!

Friends, as many of you know I have been in the process of selling the building that houses kangaroo palace. This process is nearly complete. Our last day if open bounce will be on December 29th.

We will have more information on holiday events and things going on as they approach.

If you wish to book a birthday party with us you may still do so. We will take reservation up to Dec29th.

Our outdoor rental business will remain. The indoor units will go into the outdoor lineup and we intend to replace some old equipment and continue on.

We appreciate your business, friendship and support for the past 7 and a half years. It is sad for us to close but the time has come.

Best wishes.

Jeff Franklin
