It was very tight for all of us plus a back table for snacks and beverages as well as a projector screen. It did have wonderful views and the lunches were very delicious. The cookies were fantastic! The employees were very kind and responsive to our requests. Overall, very nice facility! The room we used would be great for a group under 20.

Paid $85 each to golf and this course is an absolute disaster. Should've asked for our money back…read more Greens and fairways have large bare spots, which could almost qualify the entire course as ground under repair. City courses are in better shape than this course. Course wasn't well marked either, if at all. Several times the cart stopped us because areas were "cart path only" (not marked on the course) and we had to back out of areas. Other times we'd be on the cart path and the cart would stop and tell us to return to the path. We spent a good amount of time backing out of unmarked restricted areas. Employee and signage indicated that the beverage cart would be available to 5 pm. Saw her once at 2:30 pm and never again. Don't waste your time or money at this golf course. Sad that Arnold Palmer's name is affiliated with this catastrophe.

I went here instead of going to Inside golf in Ames. Much better beer selection here. The putting…read moresituation is also much different. The sensors here seem a little more accurate but I like the backdrop at Inside gold better. Overall, really fun and good atmosphere.

It's a great place to go and skate however, we recommended a song so many times and it took them…read morethree hours and they still didn't play it and we came back for another time and they did not play it. The song was not inappropriate nor had any bad words, I don't understand why it took them so long to play a single two minute song. However good place overall

Especially the boy at the skate counter. He was so personable and you can tell her loves his job. The rink played great music and engaged the kids with games. The concessions food was blah.

What a great time and alot of fun for all ages. We had ages from 10-50 and all had a blast. If I had to say anything negative... it would have to be there is no air conditioning and they only had one floor fan which didnt do any good with the air circulation. Will definately return soon and will tell friends about it.

They offer the kids garbage food like takeout pizza and takeout bagels and he didnt see a single vegetable. Everyone working here is an underpaid teen. We tried to cancel 2 days in advance and it wasn't til after the submission screen we got a pop up message there would be no refund or recredit. We tried to call to at least get the day we paid for back and they said no literally laughed in our face and suggested we pay for the day again.

Flexibility, independence, and fun stuff to do. Kiddo went to a lot of different camps last summer:…read morescience center, living history farms, gymnastics (some others I can't think of right now). This is the one and only camp she asked to go to this year. And she asked to go all summer. (She isn't doing that much yet but will fill in there at least a week every summer month.) The flexibility is so great. I buy a bunch of days. More than I need because there's a refund at the end for unused days. Then I tell Steve or Kate that Kiddo is coming the day before. Pick her lunch, or let her pick, and that's it. Maybe check to see if there is a water activity planned because good dads shouldn't forget to send a suit and towel. lol Drop her off any time in the morning and pick her up anytime. So. Convenient. Kiddo gets to pick out her day. If she picks to be on a tablet all day every day, that's a conversation for her and one of her grown ups. Independence means she can make less-than-perfect choices and learn from them. Last summer, Kiddo picked baking in the afternoon every afternoon she went. She was so excited about it. Every day. So excited. Maybe this summer she will sew. She did see a baby raccoon hopping out of a Greenwood park garbage can, so I know she was outside at least once. Haha! The staff was young but dedicated last summer. And I expect it will be the same this summer. They were all really on their games and made sure kids were safe while letting them have space to flex their independence. I'm so glad Des Moines has this option. The weekly fun activities are worth paying attention to--the inflatable water slide was not to be missed last summer. And I sort of wish I could get in on the pies in the face!

We were checking this out for a future trip with the grandkids. I think it's a must go…read more It's a little sparse, but we were talking to the guy at the front desk and he was talking about trying to get official accreditation. Once they get that they can expand. Everyone who worked there was marvelous. Chatty, friendly, and enthusiastic. The exhibits are wonderful. The highlight for me is the big tank in the center with the small sharks. It's well worth taking an hour or two. I'm looking forward to what they become, and maybe give them that other star.

Love it here! I like to go right when they open so you can spend a little extra time looking at the…read moreanimals before all the strollers appear. Thankfully there is water and aquariums all over so the sound is dispersed nicely. Animals appear well cared for. Staff seems to care for the animals & be knowledgeable. They are almost entirely rehabilitated animals as well that would never survive in the wild. It's great they have an opportunity to live here. I really enjoyed the bid feeding. There are so many little hungry birds that don't mind sitting on your hand or shoe. Groupon has GREAT deals for this place as well. Highly recommend as they are set up with snacks and room for events and sometimes have experts speak & themed events.
