This was the BEST miniature golf ever. We had such an amazing time here…read more This is an indoor, black light, 13 hole course and even if you don't LOVE cryptids now, you will once you finish this course! We found this course because we were checking out the West Virginia Paranormal Trail and when we arrived it was raining and they were closed but we decided to wait a while outside until they opened and I am SO glad we did. It's $12 per person but you can go through again for only $5 if you want. We probably would have done another round ourselves but time wasn't on our side. They give you a "lore card" and a score card so you get to learn all about the cryptids they feature while you play through and it is just so much fun. My favorites were the Flatwoods Monster and of course the Moth Man but it was cool to learn about some I had never heard of before as well and honestly we were tickled and smiling the whole time we were inside. It is small and does get warm inside and we were lucky that there were only a few other people when we went because they started getting busy as we were leaving and it was pretty cramped. If anything I hope that encourages them to open a larger spot and add even more holes. The owners were lovely too. They were warm and friendly and they had a super eclectic and well curated gift shop at the end of the course. We ended up getting a candle and some snacks but believe me, I wanted everything. I even asked about buying a display stand they were using for merch because it was so adorable and they made a joke about everything having a price. Then, as we were walking out, I saw a mask on the wall that I knew my hubby would love so I walked back and asked if they would sell me that. It turns out they had one in the back that they had had forever and were happy to sell it to me. The price was reasonable too so it was just a cherry on an already incredible experience. I beat my husband by a WHOPPING 11 strokes btw but that tidbit is really just for me. I hope the rest of the review was helpful and entices you to head over and support this fantastic establishment. You won't regret it.

This was one of the best mini golf courses we tried this summer! It's an indoor course, so weather…read moreisn't a factor. It's small -- only 13 holes (13! Spooooooky!) but the theming and elaborate props make it a worthwhile experience. The holes are fun, and each one is based on a local or semi-local spooky story. The staff was excellent, and had a wealth of knowledge and information about West Virginia cryptids, and general spookiness and mysteries well beyond what's covered in the course. The gift shop was very impressive -- small, and packed with cool things. We spent more money there than I was intending, but I also wouldn't mind returning to play another round and make a few more purchases. My kids could have also spent hours having their questions answered by the staff. I highly recommend this course

The mansion itself is also quite lovely, though I noticed all of the exterior pain needs a sanding and re-coat. We wandered the grounds and stumbled upon some beautiful gardens and scenic views. The catered food was A-OK and the staff was very friendly and helpful. As a wedding venue, Adaland gets the job done professionally and efficiently. I definitely want to go back and take a tour and/or come for lunch or tea. Adaland is a historic gem in the middle of nowhere.

A near empty hotel and you put people with small yapping dogs beside us, why? Smdh! All in all this is a decent place to stay if you need to catch some shut eye while on a road trip or you just want to stay in a hotel to relax like I sometimes do. ***BUT*** Just make sure to ask the people at the front desk about dogs in the rooms beside you or on your floor because they obviously didn't care if they keep us up all night and woke us up or not. The thing is I love animals to the maximum, but that is not acceptable when paying for a room and super disrespectful of people who own animals and allow that to happen over and over. Smdh!
