From the reviews

Hey Everyone, It’s a beautiful evening as you can see here! I personally think it’s way better to be here right before dusk to see the striking sunset as you play mini-put golf! If you don’t want to do that then step in line to go go-carting and yes, your kids can try out for the smaller version of them too!

We had a fun Grandma/Grandson day. We did laser tag, little kids GoKarts, a few games and ten mini putt. The staff was so kind to my 7 year old grandson and he left with a huge smile on his face! Fun day!

★★★★★ — Chris, Jun 2022

I'm not sure how many stars VF get because my grandson and I've never been before, but I wanted to take him go cart riding so that was what we did. I didn't expect it to be a small track or even a small park. There's not much to do so I got an unlimited pass which was $35 for 3hrs.! So at my age, I felt rushed!

★★★★☆ — Christina, Jun 2025

We took our son and a few of his friends here for his 12th birthday in the fall of 2017. We did some of the arcade games inside, played laser tag, rode the go carts, batted in the cages (plenty fast for the boys and I), and played miniature golf as well. Staff was super friendly, the facility was clean.
