I officiated a wedding at the Elks Lodge recently for a close family friend. At first glance, the…read morelodge does not look like the place you would have a fancy party, but there is so much potential if you have the time and patience to work with the venue. The views from the back of the lodge are breathtaking. There is an area where wedding ceremonies take place that looks out into the beautiful mountains. It really is gorgeous. The main hall is a nice size. You can easily fit 150 probably up to 250. I am not sure what the actual limit is. Or friend's wedding had just over 100 and there was a ton of room. During the rehearsal (3pm) and on the night of the wedding, there were deer that came down into the fields....so beautiful. The staff said they deer are regularly there every afternoon. The Food Our friend's wedding was buffet style and the food was good. We had a chicken Alfredo pasta, salad, mac and cheese, and bread service. There was a cash-only bar that according to my wife, had good drinks. The Staff The only member of the staff that I worked with was Linda. She was amazing and was so patient with our party. I believe she is one of the head members at the Elk's club, and she really just tried to make the best out of every situation on the day of the wedding. We had a few schedule issues that came up and she did great working with all the different personalities. Overall, depending on the vibe you are looking for with your event, the Elks Lodge is a good choice. There is a ton of parking, the offer food and all of the table and chair rentals are included.

I'm so glad this 9-hole pitch 'n putt exists in Flagstaff. It offers a pleasant short stroll with a…read morefew wedges and a putter since shots are all between 50 and 125 yards. I use each wedge (50, 54, 60-degree) almost equally in what on a fast day is a 30-40 minute round or a 60-minute one on a slow day. Major negatives are the cost and green/tee conditions. At $20 for nine holes and $5 more for replay for adults (June 2025), I expected somewhat nicer tee boxes and greens. Tee boxes are chewed up and/or produce uneven lies. The greens are not really puttable with bumps and bald spots and fungus, but the course works for practicing nine wedge shots. Overall... Vibe: 5/5 Golf: 3/5 Conditions: 2/5 Fact of Existence: 5/5

The course could use a little TLC. The putting greens were horrible…read more Its still a great course to play a short round and get some practice but if you're competitive plan on the putting greens throwing your game.

**July 2026: Tuesday Afternoon**…read more Growing up, Pluto was still considered a planet, so when I found out the observatory where it was discovered is in Flagstaff, I knew I had to include Lowell Observatory on my itinerary. During the summer, tickets were $43 for adults, $38 for seniors (55+), and $28 for children (6-17), with hours from 1 PM to 11 PM (which makes sense with the later sunsets). My friend and I arrived around 2 PM and were able to jump right into a mix of lectures and guided tours. One of the highlights was being led to the very telescope where Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto. It was such a surreal, full-circle moment. Our guide also shared the history of Percival Lowell and walked us through the grounds, which added a lot of depth and context to the visit. I also appreciated how interactive the experience was. There are telescopes available for guests to use during both the day and night, and your admission includes a clip-on badge that allows you to leave and return later in the evening. We had planned to come back after dinner to try and catch a view of a planet, but unfortunately it was a cloudly forecast so we were out of luck. Even without perfect viewing conditions, the experience was still incredibly worthwhile. It's such a great place to learn, enjoy the outdoors, and appreciate the curiosity and dedication of scientists and researchers. We ended up attending several talks and tours and learned a lot throughout the afternoon. We stayed from about 2 PM to 6 PM and even grabbed a grilled cheese sandwich at the café, which hit the spot. Overall, Lowell Observatory is a unique and educational stop that I'd definitely recommend adding to your Flagstaff itinerary--especially if you have any interest in space or astronomy.

I have to admit that I was extremely disappointed in our experience at Lowell Observatory. Do not…read morego during overcast or rainy weather! We pre-paid for our tickets (which are non-refundable), and had no choice but to go on the only day we were in Flagstaff... when it rained. The big clue should have been us driving into an absolutely empty parking lot. Most of the cool experiences in Lowell are weather-dependent. We couldn't look through the large telescopes because of the overcast. The observatory show (and many of the outdoor shows) were canceled. All the things that make the high admission price tag worth it just weren't possible. With that said, there aren't many indoor, inclement-weather-friendly activities at the observatory, which made for a fairly boring experience. We walked around for an hour, and then just left. The Lowell Observatory needs to expand in my opinion or offer discounted rates for days when most of its experiences are closed. Positive notes... the drive up to the observatory is very pretty. They have an awesome gift shop. And you can see the telescope that discovered Pluto.

We packed our bags and headed up to Flagstaff for some reprieve. A little nervous taking our 2 year old but based on the reviews, we took a chance. I'm beyond grateful we did. Our hotel room was exactly what we needed, two beds, plenty of space, updated, mini fridge, mini microwave, bathtub to bathe little, super comfy beds and blackout shades to get some well deserved rest (if you have kids - you know). We only checked out the restaurant for breakfast and it was okay - nothing amazing but also not bad. The waitstaff were very pleasant and timely. The amenities are what really stole the show. The park was actually perfect for our toddler to run around, get dirty and make some new friends. It's well designed to accommodate kids of all ages and actually entertained me as mom too. We met plenty of other parents there with their littles which made it that much better. We planned to check out the pool but our son was on explorer mode so the trails, basketball court and park took up his time. The only downside to our stay, was that our bathtub drain was clogged so our showers were so fun with standing water up to our ankles. We did call a few times but no one ever came to fix it (maintenance was tied up with the pool I later heard and it was a holiday weekend so maybe they were short staffed). I called and spoke with the front desk who offered us a comp toward our bill for the inconvenience which was appreciated. Overall we had a lovely stay and plan to return in the winter for their Christmas festivities.

I had a very poor experience with Total Grand Rental. They rented me a broken woodchipper, and then…read morerefused to provide a refund They charged me a $350 rental fee for broken equipment, which I had returned within an hour. I had been a loyal customer for nearly nine years. Over this time, I have rented various pieces of equipment, such as floor sanders and excavators, and purchased tools including axes and a chainsaw. On this occasion, I rented a six-inch wood chipper. The chipper was unable to grind even small branches under two inches in diameter, which indicates significant mechanical issues. Upon discovering this problem, I immediately contacted their staff. I was instructed to return the equipment and assured that I would be "taken care of." Upon returning the chipper within an hour of receiving it, I was informed that the only other chipper available was also inoperable, making it impossible for me to complete the work as planned. The next day, I spoke with Brian, the owner. He informed me that he would not provide a refund for the rental. The fine print on their contract indemnified them from any liability. Equipment issues may occur from time to time, but a reputable business takes accountability and seeks to make things right for its customers. This business is happy to take your money, but will not be there for you when something goes wrong. I paid for a service that was not provided.
