    Very disappointed. We were looking to break away for a relaxing weekend since being cooped up from the Covid. There are probably 50 open camping spots and they put all four of us side by side cramped in. It's the closest spots we have experienced. Bad management. Fine if you are just stopping for a night but if looking to camp for a few days, go elsewhere. We are rather than staying for the rest of our reservati

    We stayed at this KOA Journey 3/5/2021 to 3/6/2021 . Desk staff woman was exceptional. I changed my date from 5th to 6th . On the 5th I had to call to reverse back to the 5th night stay ! No problem she said and changed it without any problems! Made our stay less stressful to accommodate my changing plans at last minute. The lady escort to our cabin was very pleasant. I didn't catch her name unfortunately but also was exceptional and answered my questions I had asked when we arrived at the cabin ! The bathrooms with showers were within short walking distance and were very clean inside with no bugs either which was great ! I would say the only small downfall is it's so close to I-75 you can hear all the traffic noice! We kept the air conditioner on to drown out the noise! Air Conditioner worked great ! Wasn't so bad then ! We did get a goodnight sleep . We stayed in Kaybin 5 . The fan didn't work but light did ! Maintenance wasn't available since it was after 6 . Would we stay here again ?? Yes definitely we would !

    We were kicked out! Read full story below: We knew we were in trouble as we drove through the grounds. For lack of a better word, this place was dumpy, & we were searching for the silver lining, but it did not come. Our "long term site" was bordering the Frontage Rd. of a hectic interstate, & so loud I couldn't even think. It was separated from the busy road by a mere 2-ft-tall guardrail. Unlevel site with potholes, & a neighbor with 4 vehicles allowed on their site. When I asked initially to change sites, the "escort" said "Nothing else. You can stay here, or get a refund." So rude! This site was no place for a child to live, so I went to negotiate in office. The noise & safety were a huge concern. They said they would switch us to a "better nightly rate site," so we agreed since my husband's job gives a lodging stipend. Our rate went from $530/mo. up to $1200/mo. This was great for them, as they more than doubled their earnings off of us for the next 1-3 months. Our new site was better, but by no means a great place for our child to live for an extended period. It had dilapidated campers everywhere, campers not held to any standard of care of their sites, unlevel site with drop-off, broken playground equipment wrapped in yellow caution tape, dirty/outdated restrooms, multiple (2-4) vehicles parked at every site, outdated "amenities," & safety was a clear issue. The "pond" was essentially a ditch with water & fountain. There was nearly a dog fight in the couple of hours we were there between residents. During setup, I received a phone call from the office that "unfortunately" they had decided they were going to charge us for both the monthly site AND the nightly site. It seemed very unkind, dishonest, & greedy! I went to sort things out. They told me they wanted to charge us $293 for all the days since we made a reservation on 8/25/20, even though they knew we would not be arriving & checking-in until 9/10/20... a "holding fee." All that on top of the $1200 we were about to pay for the next month. We said no, & instead committed to 2 nights, & to unhappily pay the difference. This should have totaled $380. Next thing I know, the manager hands me a receipt for $829! THE LAST STRAW! She now wanted me to pay for all "the nights held" at the nightly rate instead. I protested! If anything, I should pay $530 for a month (not even stayed), plus 2 nights at $43.50/night rate, but even that was highway robbery! If they wanted to charge us for "holding a spot," then fine, charge us the $293 plus 2 additional nights = $380, which was what we agreed to initially, until she began changing her tune. At that point in the heated conversation, the manager said she was terminating our stay, but would still be charging us $530 (for nothing). We were there for a total of 2.25 hrs, & never got fully set up at either of the sites. She kicked us out with TODDLER in tow at 8:30 PM. HEARTLESS! In all honesty, this place is a "glorified trailer park," & so dumpy. They have a poor moral compass & business practices as well. Will be reporting to BBB. Please, don't stay here!

    A quaint little KOA, a nice spot to rest for the night. Kind employees and a very nice area for my dogs to roam. 5 stars!

LOL Finding the entrance to this place was a little difficult. It was twilight and there were not a lot of street lights or helpful signage. We ordered a couple of supreme pizzas, beer, and salads. The pizza was surprisingly good! The Cobb salad was also better than expected (even though the menu says it includes eggs but it did not.) The Arcade seemed a bit expensive but fun...but I also could not tell you how long it's been since I've been in an arcade so maybe I'm just old and out of touch. We did have a LOT of fun playing air hockey and skee ball...and trying out different games that did not exist when we were kids at Chucky Cheese. My sides were hurting from laughter by the time we left. The prizes for tickets seemed a little lame but again, I may just be old since my little cousin had no problem picking out items. There is also skating, billiards, bowling, putt putt available....which I may honestly come back and try a couple of those. The music was a little loud in dining area (omg, I'm really making myself sound old, aren't I?!) but they were playing really good music! I only saw one adult manager...all the rest were teenagers. Most of them seemed like they had not been working there long. And when their friends showed up, it was like no other customers existed. This place is entirely cash less. You must pay with a card and to play games you must have a Rigby's card. If you do not have one, you can purchase one for $1 and must initially load it with at least $20. So SAVE that card if there is a remote chance you will return. Overall an OK experience. It's definitely the place to go for teenagers. Maybe I'll comeback during daytime hours and see if it's a little different.

One negative was the construction work going on adjacent to the patio where our event was held. The dust that drifted over wreaked havoc on my lungs and it was very noisy even though our speakers were using microphones.

They have different color-coded courses, and we played the red and green ones. What makes it unique is that some holes include interactive challenges like trivia questions and moving obstacles, which keeps things interesting and adds a fun twist to regular mini golf. We also ordered a couple of cocktails while we played, the Old Fashioned and the mezcal margarita, and both were delicious. The margarita stood out with its jalapeño-infused popsicle, which added just the right amount of spice and was a good touch. We didn't have much interaction with service since check-in was self-guided, but the staff we did encounter, including the server who brought our drinks, were kind and pleasant. Overall, it's a great spot to hang out and chill with friends or family. Definitely a fun and unique activity if you're looking for something different to do indoors.

That means when you play, you are in a tight maze of 9 holes per course. So you could go to the bar and order on your tab. But, no room for food on the course. And the games move quick so you'll likely not have time for going to the bar. There's no app or way to order drinks or food either. Keeping in mind, your party is tracked as you move through the course. Not clear why Puttshack has not figured out how to have an app and let us use our bar tabs in the app ties to our game to order/deliver/pay for food. Then, our bar tabs are separate from the dining tabs. It simply needs to be better thought out.

    Birthday Party Review…read more This place is a hidden gem for a birthday party for a child between 4-8, maybe 9. So for the reviews about 12+ year olds, I think that is too old of an age for most activities. This place is by Kitchen wholesale places so you really would not know it existed. It is not far from Slingshots (aka old BJs Wholesale). When you enter it is just a front desk where you sign in and a party room to drop off your shoes and such. I was wondering WTF?!? Anyways, the staff pumps up the kids and gives each one a glow bracelet. The birthday kid gets a brightly colored tie dyed shirt. Then....they open the next door and BAM! You are entering a room of neon colored bounce houses, out of this world wallpaper lined walls from the ceiling to the floor, music (a little too loud) and a ton of things for the kids. They have soccer and basketball nets, they have a mini mini golf area (thus better for younger kids) and a ball shooting thing. These bounce houses for the cleanest ones I have ever seen. I don't think you can just walk in here like other places so you may need to call and find out the "free play". It was great because there were maybe 30 kids there, most with the party we were with. They have chairs for the parents to sit in which is also a perk. I know that they order in pizza for the parties, but we didn't stay long enough for that. Overall, super cool place off the beaten path.
