We were from out of town and came here with a relative who lives in Charlevoix, MI. He wanted to…read morego bowling. I did not have a real opinion either way before or after coming here. I think that if you have been to one bowling alley, you have been to them all. Some of the only differences would be the size of the building and the atmosphere of the location. Space was limited here due to COVID BS, so we had to be put on a waiting list, briefly. All parties had to be spaced at every other lane. Staff, while courteous, was very to the point. They probably get tired of putting up with disrespectful youth and drunk amateur bowlers. I get it. The waitress we had should get a raise or at least a promotion of some kind. She was friendly, prompt with doing her job and always looked busy. She told me that if a customer ran out without paying, which happened to her once to the tune of $60, she has to pay out of her own pocket. Sad... All in all, you get what you would expect for a bowling alley at The Northern Lights.

In the mood for a Friday fish fry? We were and decided to give BC Lanes a try. Great choice!…read more The fish was fresh, lightly breaded and delicious! Drink prices were reasonable, and although it's a bowling alley, the atmosphere was casual yet cozy. Nice change of pace from the bougie mountain scene. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next night for drinks and to listen to the band.

They have a really nice separate bar with craft beers, so I'd bump them up a star for that. Food from the snack bar is really good, actually.

The interior was nicely updated and the building was clean. They have 6 lanes for bowling, a bar (beer only), and numerous TVs that allow you to catch the big game while bowling. I was there on New Years Eve and they even had a DJ coming in to help ring in the new year. Our family's cabin is right in between Gaylord and Mancelona, and I will gladly bring my business back to Mancelona Lanes as opposed to anywhere else in the area.
