Great space for groups, and we had a great time with friendly workers and clear instructions. Easy to use axes and fun scoring games. read more

My best friend and I are on a boys and extended weekend mini-vacation, and after shooting guns yesterday (see my review), decided another fun thing to do would be to throw some axes around. Pocono Axe Works was a big hit even with our sore shoulders. After checking in and verifying that we signed our waivers, we were led to our lane with two targets. Our helpful staffer gave a quick rundown of safety procedures and also a short tutorial of how to throw. We watched and learned and it was our turn. Both my friend and I have done this before but it was quite some time ago. It took a while to get the hang of getting the right rotations on the axes, and with the different weights of them, I found that I preferred one over the others. But we played multiple games using the scoring of the World Axe Throwing League. 10 rounds, one throw a round. In the end, we were at five games each as winners. One game we only used our less dominant hand to throw which was funny. We inquired about a different game and was told about "Around the World" where you have to score from one to the bullseye and then back to one and lastly a kill shot. I got to the bullseye and finally hit it while my friend got to the five-point before we decided our shoulders were just giving out. You can bring food and beer/drinks in, and we each had two Yuengling Hershey's Chocolate Porters as we did our thing. We had some great conversation and laughs. Others were coming in consistently as we were there on this Saturday, and they also have leagues you can sign up for. If you're in a large group, you may want to try and rent multiple lanes as the time it takes for your turn could be long and you are quick to throw. Kinda like bowling. I'd recommend coming with one friend for the practice and then doing the whole group thing. The single staffer was attentive with everyone and friendly. The facility also has a "gift shop" selling clothing and pillows and other stuff. My friend and I had a great time overall. $112 for a two-person two-hour rental including tax. read more

Such a great experience. Its simple and very calm. Our instructor was amazing and super chill! Treated everyone so chill and kindly! I love the atmosphere because its like an indoor picnic spot to eat and throw axe! I would do this with a group of friends! I certainly got my workout in throwing axe. Throwing was easy! Picking them up 100+ times was the challenging part, haha. They have a computer axe gaming system, regular axe layout, and a glow in the dark version. We did the glow in the dark layout, where was cool! Never felt rushed and plenty of space to throw. Highly recommend! read more

Great place; we have gone here twice and had lots of fun both times. Good for groups and family parties. You can bring your own beer or food! The guys and I went last Saturday; the two young ladies working there were the best. We definitely will be going back next time we are in the area. We had a blast; can't say enough great things!! read more

Laura was so friendly and helpful in instructing us. This was our first time axe throwing and she helped make it such a great experience. Would definitely recommend going. We'd go again for sure! read more

We had a great time throwing axes for the first time, some of the members of our group had done this in other places a few times already so the staff was very helpful giving us lessons. Masks are required and it's BYOB, no hard liquor. We will come back next year! read more

We were a family group of 6 (3 in their 20's; 3 above 50). Only 1 of us had thrown before. Mark and his son gave enough instruction that we weren't hopeless, but more importantly made the activity so much fun! We laughed so much. Currently Mark is only booking for the new indoor part of the facility (not the big barn out back) but our group of 6 were the only ones in the facility during our session (after us were 2 groups of 2) so it is a very COVID-safe activity. read more

What a blast. This place is great. From the moment we walked in and the staff greeted us with excitement. They instructed us on how to throw and to play a game. We had such a good time. I look forward to bringing a group of friends to have some fun. Thanks read more
