If anyone read the last review I wrote, it should be clear to you by now that I have travel led to…read more(not so) sunny Springfield, OH. This started out as a business trip, and turned into bowling. If you are from a small town, somewhere in the Midwest, than this review might be meaningless to you, but Victory Lanes was a TREAT! First of all, it was snowy outside, so indoor activities were at a premium. That said, there was a $3 dollar cover to do 'the special', which after that included, GET THIS!!!: $1 per game $1 12oz draft beers $3 shoe rental We played eight games, drank 4 beers, rented shoes... Everyone got out of there for around $10 bucks -total. Unbelievable!!!! Fantastic!!! That would be worth at least four stars at a total dump, but Victory was well maintained, clean, and staffed by wonderful people. I think I found a reason to get excited about returning to Springfield Ohio!

Very clean, very friendly, and the prices aren't bad at all. $8 gets you 2 hours of bowling- as…read moremany games as you want. My husband and I usually get in 4-6 games, depending on how much talking we do. The food isn't bad either. This has easily become our "home lanes". We've been there probably 5 or 6 times and the ladies already know us and seem genuinely happy to see us. Also the guys at the pro shop have measured and drilled 2 balls now for us and they too are very professional and get things done in a timely manner. Highly recommend this bowling alley.

The facilities available are quite nice, the staff was willing to do anything to make the experience exceptional; We could not have asked for more. I highly recommend the Gem City Golf Club to anyone seeking a place to have a great time/event. The meal was all cooked from scratch (there were no ready made entrees served) the bar was considerately stocked, and the selections were made in ample supply (nothing ran out). All in all it was a 5 star experience in a place I wasn't expecting it. On a side note; for those people interested in trying out the menu they are open to the public for lunch, I know I'm adding them to my favorite destinations for a quick bite

Overall, it is decent looking food and that's what you expect. Mini golf: holes are relatively taken care of. Some of them have the right amount pitch for drainage, and some don't. Arcade: a bunch of games, geared toward the younger crowd. I'd say 3-12 years old. Good variety for a smaller area. Dinning Area: small just a few tables. Prices: comparable to most other fun attractions. Went there with my two kids and wife spent $30 had a Groupon clouds and ball included as always. Parking: Plenty of space, side and back private lots. Bathrooms: Bathrooms were clean and decent in size. Small locker room attached. Atmosphere: overall a little dark, but fun atmosphere. Bar: no alcohol that I seen. Staff/Attendants: kids were running the show for the most part, not really good or bad service but definitely could tell they didn't wanna be there. Overall nice experience! 7/10

Perfect pond side location for an outdoor ceremony, and I'm guessing the pavilion right next to the pond is your next best bet, if the weather doesn't cooperate.

It's intimate and charming and was everything I was looking for! The staff is very friendly and I had a good experience with them up to the week of my wedding. The event coordinator, Ann, had solicited her services as a wedding planner when we booked the venue. She is pleasant and sweet, but unorganized and this became very apparent the week before our wedding. We arrived at the Birch House the day before to start decorations and my family was asked to set up tables and chairs and clean bird feces off of them. It seemed unorganized and unprofessional to ask for my family to be cleaning bird feces off of everything... especially since this can be a major source of spreading disease AND that is a venue responsibility. My father-in-law showed up the next morning a couple of hours before the wedding and the chairs were still dirty with bird feces in the ceremony area and wouldn't have been clean by the time guests arrived for the wedding if he hadn't spent an hour and a half cleaning them. Ann said she would also be there the entire time to help with transitioning guests, caterers and I shouldn't stress about anything, but I had to try to find them multiple times to help. Overall, it would have been a better experience if I had not paid for her to help plan it because I could have ensured things didn't fall apart the week before the wedding. She mixed up our tent rentals, booking reservations, there was no lighting in the tent whatsoever for my wedding ceremony (which caused nobody to get a good picture of us being married and this is something she should have addressed prior as something we needed and we would have been happy to pay the additional expense), and she should have had staff available to clean the tables and chairs. There was no flow between the ceremony, serving food, cake cutting, etc. When she solicited her services as a wedding planner (as a side job to being the event coordinator for Glen Helen), she assured us that she would take the stress off of us and make things go smoothly.... I felt like I had to do majority of the work I asked her to do and the things I let her book were all wrong. I would not recommend using her as a wedding planner if you book anything at Glen Helen. Aside from that, it's an absolutely stunning venue that provides an intimate setting to share your wonderful day with family and friends.
