Insider tips
- Consider visiting for specific events like New Year's Eve, as pricing ($20/kid for unlimited selected games) can offer good value.
- Be aware that arcade tokens are a separate cost, not included with activity wristbands.
- Inspect mini-golf equipment (clubs) for cleanliness before use.
- Avoid playing putt-putt at night due to severe lighting issues.
Good to know before you go
- Putt-putt at night due to poor lighting and lack of management support.
- If you prioritize updated, pristine facilities for activities like mini-golf.
- If you are on a tight budget and plan to engage in multiple activities, especially individual mini-golf courses or heavy arcade use, due to high individual costs and separate token fees.
- If you expect high standards for cleanliness in all restroom facilities.
- Putt-putt courses are described as 'old' with 'no updates' and equipment (golf clubs) can be 'sticky' and require cleaning.
- Crowds
- No specific details on crowd levels provided in reviews for general visits, but the NYE event was successfully attended by a crowd without complaints about crowding.
- Value
- Pricing is generally perceived as high. Mini-golf requires separate fees for each of the two courses, and an all-day pass is described as 'crazier price'. Kids' wristbands are $30 ($36 before 5 pm) and are considered overpriced by some, particularly because arcade tokens are not included and are an additional expense. However, the New Year's Eve event for $20 per child, offering unlimited selected games, was seen as 'a blast' and good value.
- Food
- Food is served on-site.
- Accessibility
- No specific accommodations mentioned in reviews.
- Safety
- No specific safety features mentioned in reviews.
What parents say
"My kids had a really great time here! We came for a family friends birthday party and they all had a blast. There many different things for them to do from an inside arcade and play area to outdoors batting cages, laser tag, bumper boats, paintball, 2 put put courses and 2 go kart areas. They serve food and have a bar for the parents."

"Went to play mini-golf, they had two courses. Prices are high for what it is and you have to pay to play each course a new set of fees (or you can buy an all day pass for an even crazier price). The course was alright, you could tell it's an old course with no updates. Took my daughter to use the restroom in the arcade and well let's just say it left a lot to be desired. If you got extra I come to spend then give it a shot but there are much better options in the area for family fun and a better price. I can not speak on any other activities here as I did not try them during my visit."

"This isn’t the swings n things I remember as a kid. While the staff was very kind, The wristbands for kids were $30 ($36 before 5pm) and it was didn’t seem worth what we paid for. The golf course isn’t that big and the equipment was sticky and needed to be cleaned off after it was given to us. There’s a go cart course which my daughter enjoyed but we only did everything once. The arcade inside has a decent selection of games but you would think for a $30 wristband that that would include arcade tokens. It’s doesn’t that’s a separate price. The thing our kids enjoyed most was the kidz corner. W"
