Wow, very impressive. We went about a month ago and were very impressed with this place. It is a…read morebit more expensive than other mini-gold places, but still very reasonable and for the setup they have there - very reasonable. It is a Pirate theme throughout the golf course - two courses. This is not the cheap theme stuff, but very nicely done. Water and waterfalls everywhere, boats to play on, caves with open dropoffs into the water hazard, even a shot under a rope fence, over a stream and down the hill to the hole. This is far and away the best mini-golf course we have seen. We will definately be back as both my husband and I and our three kids loved it!

We usually avoid staying at Wyndham properties because we often get pulled into timeshare or upsell…read moreconversations, and unfortunately that happened again this time just when calling to confirm our reservation and request early check-in. I called multiple times about early check-in and got a different answer each time. We did end up being able to check in early the same day, but it cost an extra $60. They also mentioned we were the only guests requesting it, which felt a bit odd. The water park was a highlight our kids had a great time. The only downside is that the water is freezing and there's a noticeable cold draft throughout the area. Our room was spacious and worked really well for our family of five. Wi-Fi was spotty, but the TVs were nice. Overall, some frustrations, but the space and water park kept the stay enjoyable for the kids.

A very run down hotel. I had to come in for a conference and didn't have many options. The front…read moredesk experience is an absolute train wreck. I stood there for 15 minutes while the front desk took a call from a "potential future booking" and discussed all things water park. I was finally acknowledged only to find out my room (a few minutes before 4pm) wasn't ready. I asked for an alternate room and she said no, we have nothing yet cleared by housekeeping. The hotel is in need of a major deep clean. The bathrooms are small and dingy, towels thin, and products terrible. Don't get me started on the thin sheets. I had another date booked at the Arrowwood Lodge for a conference in October and I promptly cancelled. There aren't many options on the Brainerd/Baxter area, but this place isn't it!

People were really nice, pool tables looked brand new, and even though the kitchen was closed for the night, the cook agreed to open it back up when a group of three patrons said they were hungry and he overheard them. I only put in review now since Covid is starting to ease up and I was planning to take another vacation to Brainerd and had to look up the name of the place. Good people, good food, friendly staff, new pool tables, what more could you ask for? I'd say for sure check this place out if you get the chance! Oh yeah and they have a ping pong table too, which was something you don't see everyday.

I thought it was pretty good... just enough butter on it (okay, so maybe alot). They have the little seasoning station like other theatres, so you can put the ranch seasoning, etc on your popcorn. (I didn't try... but my Dad likes that stuff.) We went to the 7pm show on Oscar night, and it was pretty bare. Couple that with the snowstorm... and we were only 6 people in the theatre. Nice... Comfy chairs... and only $8.50 for a movie. Nice!! :)

This time we tried to see the new Conjuring and did not order tickets ahead, the theater was nearly sold out by the time we got there (about 30 minutes before), we couldn't get seats that were all together so we saw Naked Gun instead which was a mistake. Staff is friendly and the butter is dairy free as far as I am aware so I love it. This time their icee machine was broken so I just got a cup of water. Bathrooms were clean and the arcade area is bright and fun.

With new ones opening up, I look forward to adding them to the list. I've also treated family members to their first-time nitro "experience" a number of times. They were awed at the first Top Fueler making a great run. I ALWAYS make sure first-timers get a dose of start-up nitro fumes in the pits when we first arrive. I also love to see their reactions at the first good nitro run down the track!!! I'm 82, went to my first drag race at Detroit Dragway as a 16-year-old high-schooler and have subsequently been in love with the sport ever since. Full 1/4 mile runs at ~8 seconds at ~170 MPH. I was blown away! IF I could find room for all the event pins I've acquired over the decades on my current NHRA cap, I'd have a splitting headache from their weight by the time the first qualifying fuel runs were over. What's not to LOVE about the drags?

Brainerd International Raceway, Indian Motorcycle's home turf, was a flurry of activity for King of…read morethe Baggers as always. Motorcycle races started early and ran throughout the day for the event, and everyone loved listening to them roar as they zipped by and watching them turn corners so low to the ground that kneepads were literally skidding on the asphalt. I was there as a Harley Davidson representative. The HD footprint is located towards the back of the raceway, so it was fun seeing which brands had turned out for the event and watching everyone set up for the day every morning as we walked pass. It's an outdoor space, so expect food trucks and portapotties. From what others on the HD team commented, food offerings were meh. Pack or buy a lunch to bring if inclined. If you are there early as part of a big event as opposed to a guest for said event, the portapotty hand sanitizer dispensers *may* not be filled yet, so maybe bring some alongside that lunch. Just saying. The raceway entrance is located beside VP Racing Fuels gas station. Massive trucks covered that entrance on my way in, so I completely missed the entrance and turned into said gas station for directions before dancing around the multiple unloading trucks to get to the raceway entrance. The attendants at the entrance were lovely and helpful in getting my credentials. Heads up: The gas station doesn't have a restroom either, just another portapotty. Local gas prices were such a nice reprieve given the spikes in metro areas. If you happen to be staying a half-hour north of the raceway, gas prices drop even further, and there's a little motel up there I'd highly recommend as well.
