There was an event going on in the event center, lanes were booked on a Sunday around 5pm, Trivia in the restaurant/bar **Reserve your lanes ahead of time to make sure you get the time and space that you need** Free parking, sand volleyball court outside, patio in the summer Kids and adults had a blast! Dark inside the bowling alley, more light in the restaurant

This is a great place to bring your kids family, etc. I…read moredidn't know that this place had a private area for music. There's a small cover where you can see live bands. This is definitely something that I want to be checking out for the future. Bowling is obviously their main attraction. They have a lot of lanes and they do a great job you pay by the hour. The best part is that they have a great happy hour and I would recommend finding a time when that is because it's a great place to eat and drink while you bowl. We ordered lots of appetizers and everything was above par frozen food. For a quick appetizers, we were happy. Better than Applebee's any day. Overall, a great place to bring your kids. It's nice to support a local company versus a bigger corporation.

"Babes Music Bar", I've been a patron for 20 years and never heard any music! In all fairness, I…read morehaven't stayed up past 8:00PM in 20 years either so.... Babes is a great spot for sports, drinks and bar food. A great selection of tap beers anchor the bar that is "manned" by very efficient and friendly ladies. Everything on the menu is done well and efficiently. Before COVID and the ensuing stupidity, they had free popcorn! As our COVID memory gets fuzzy, I hope they bring it back. Babes is also where I saw my forest Friday night Meat Raffle and was instantly addicted. I think I paid $359 a pound for pork chops (I'm perennially unlucky!) but that's on me and I had / have a ball!

The White Squirrel Bar was just okay to me. There was live music going on, which was a nice touch…read moreand probably the highlight of the visit. The inside of the bar is pretty small and felt a bit cramped, especially with how busy it was on a Sunday. They do have a back patio that is fairly large, which I appreciated, but during the day it did not feel very inviting. Without lighting or much going on, it came off a bit plain. As for drinks, I tried a non alcoholic half and half with lemonade and iced tea, which I actually really liked. I also had a mojito style cocktail that was not my favorite and tasted a bit too strong for me. The overall vibe just was not really my thing, but I could see it being more fun at night or with a bigger group.
