From the reviews
We actually had a Blast!! I have been in Kansas City for years and just never ever been there but I’m so glad we went. We absolutely had a blast💜 so much to do the staff is amazing🙃 so helpful and just overall fun. We totally needed this. I highly recommend it. Thanks guys you did amazing.
Great fun time with the adult kids. Enjoyed how the greens are unique and not commercialized. Played 2 rounds and the hardest one was the dragon. Also played air hockey, skee ball and basketball in the arcade. Feels very old school but in a good way.
My family comes here as a family outing quite often. We love the atmosphere. Cool Crest was going down hill for awhile, but when I came this time, they had started repairing the buildings and the place is looking much better overall. I really enjoyed the package we bought.
Decent enough place to take kids for a few hours away from screen time. Love some of the package options, especially the current Groupon which is 3 attractions for 2 people for 25. Worked out great for my 12yo and a buddy. Got a round of putt putt and two spins on the go carts each.
