Private Axe Throwing Party was AWESOME!!…read more WHAT FUN! They have a really great (SAFE) facility that has LOTS of space (we plan to go back for some paintball fun!). It's really a class-act setup & a fabulous 'different' experience which made for a great party! We booked a party, which on Mon-Wed they are closed & it's only private parties (not sure if this is year round or just the winter hours?); but it was GRAND having the WHOLE PLACE to ourselves! We just had 8 people for an 18th b-day party & we could easily have had another 4-6 people with the room they have for axe-throwing. The Axes area is a nice size but also cozy, almost like a neat 'bar' environment. *FYI-it is BYOB-no liquor* We brought wine for adults & sparkling juice for the teens. 3 boys, 1 girl and 4 adults.....we ALL had so much fun! $249 isn't cheap, but it was worth every penny. 90-minutes (which the fabulous gentleman who was there for us did not start our time until all safety briefing & instruction time was over) of throw time was MORE than enough, the last 10 minutes you could tell it was time to go eat, so more than 90 min would just have been too much. There are 3 high-top tables with 4 chairs each. There are 5 throwing lanes. Each lane has mesh metal screens on the sides and thick wood-paneled walls. The targets (which I read about on their site) are really amazing, the thicker blocks they use vs. cheaper boards make the axe's stick GREAT and easily for almost any throw-er. The 'games' are projected onto the boards and have score keeping that is fun & easy (like a bowling alley) with a PC mouse & keypad. The gentleman who was there for our party experience was fantastic, even came in a few times & showed us different throw-angles to try and (as a 'mom') I felt safe that he was keeping an eye on everything too. Super nice and accommodating gent - helped make our evening even more fun! Helpful tip: If you go at night, the sign is currently not lit, so it's RIGHT after Black's Tire/Goodyear. The parking lot is dark, but you'll see the lights inside are on! OH - take snacks & drinks for your party, also any plates or utensils - they only have the tables/seating & the entertainment!

Crossfire Does It Again!…read more Crossfire gets better and better every time I visit. They rebuilt after the hurricane, a beautiful new interior for paintball and nerf. After COVID, they added GellyBall. And now, AXE THROWING! I had never thrown axes before and it was easy to get the hang of enough to have fun. Also, the computer projects different games onto the wooden target so you never get bored. I went with just one other person but this would be a blast for a group - co-workers, friends, bachelor/bachelorette party, school organization, fraternity/sorority outing. No limits.

The front yard area of Time to Rage could use quite a bit of work to make it aesthetically pleasing. But once I was in the rage room and starting breaking things, it was totally worth it. To book a session, it's easy to book it on their website in either 5, 10, 15 minute increments or a customized timeframe. They offer various glassware such as cups, wine bottles, plates as well as printers, TVs, copiers. If you want to break bigger items like a TV, I recommend asking for it in advance to make sure you have it. In my session, I only had glassware. There is free street parking right in front. After parking, you enter a small room, where you get dressed up for your session. You put on disposable coveralls, disposable ear plugs, gloves, and a face shield. Make sure to wear closed-toed shoes before coming. There is only one room to break things and only one person is allowed at a time. You can choose any song to play while you're breaking things in your session. You might want to do some research beforehand on what kind of song to use, if you want a specific song. Otherwise, they have a small chalkboard with the top 5 songs written that people like. I chose Drowning Pool - Bodies, which is an awesome song to rage to. In the rage room, they had baseball bats and golf clubs to break things. You can also stand behind two drawn out lines on the floor to throw things at the wall. All of the glassware were sitting on a table in the middle of the room. There were some broken things that were left in the room against the walls, like broken TVs. They did not get in the way of raging for me. I have never done this kind of activity before so I was a little nervous before my session. But once I picked up the bat and started swinging, it was so much fun and cathartic. Let me tell you, this is more carhartic than punching a bag. I wish they were able to give me a heads up of when my 5 minutes was almost to a close. The owner is thinking of a solution for that. I also wished they had plenty of items to break in the first place before I started raging. They told me I was pretty quick at breaking things compared to other people, so they had to give me some more things to break, just 4 more cups. Maybe if I had bigger substantial items, that would have taken up some more time. 5 minutes would be plenty of time to rage, but, only if there are a lot of things to break without pausing. If you have a lot of cooped up emotions, then 10 minutes+ might be better. I definitely recommend this to everyone to try at least once in your lifetime!

When it was just the production team, maybe throw in the the musicians, it was okay, musicians are more outgoing, but I wouldn't put the word fun in with the party even though they tried really hard. But what you added in the Game Show Challenge, it was BIG fun! I laughed, and laughed. I really enjoyed myself! it was so good I lost track of time! I forgot about whatever I worry about and the troubles in the world faded away! It was great! I started thinking where could I use this, could I use it with my own company? could I use it with my family? could I use it to raise money in my non-profit? The answer was all YES. I could use it for team building, suggest it for this year's convention! I could use it at a BIG birthday party, I have a big one coming up!! I could use it for a fundraiser for my non-profit, and I could use it for a family reunion, that would be a hoot! This is the most creative thing I have seen this creative young man do. He is hilarious by nature, but this is awesome. Give it a try! You won't be disappointed. You won't.

The grounds are beautiful, peaceful, and rich with history. Even though only some of the flowers are blooming right now, there is still plenty to enjoy--towering live oaks draped in Spanish moss, winding paths, ponds, sculptures, and the feeling that you've stepped back into old Wilmington. The famous Airlie Oak and the historic chapel make it feel more like wandering through a living postcard than just another garden. Airlie dates back to the late 1800s and was created by Sarah and Pembroke Jones before becoming a public garden preserved for future generations. The gardens are well kept, easy to stroll through, and especially lovely this time of year with the Azalea Festival season beginning. It is the kind of place where you slow down, take a deep breath, and remember that nature did landscaping long before homeowners associations started issuing warning letters. The one drawback--and for us older folks it is a real one--is that there simply are not enough restrooms spread throughout the grounds. With so much walking involved, having a few more bathrooms around the gardens would make a tremendous difference and would make the experience more comfortable for seniors and families. Overall: 4 out of 5 stars. A beautiful, historic Wilmington treasure that is absolutely worth visiting, especially in the spring--just be sure to make a restroom stop before setting out on the trails.
