Customer Reviews

Great time doing go karts, bumper boats and the climb challenge with our. Best part was Brooke. Our son has autism and always sets out to do everything but has gotten in the habit of never finishing. We explained this to Brooke and she understood completely. She took a good deal of time helping him through the course and making sure he tried his hardest to complete anything he started. He was very proud of himself all due to Brooke. Give her a raise!

When will the kids we did some gold card and mini golf and the batting cages. They have slow pitch for the batting cages and they have 40 mph 50 mph 60 and 70 mph fastballs for baseball. The high ropes course needs to get inspected so that wasn't open unfortunately. Staff there was great they're a little understaffed but it's not busy season yet so they're good for now. I'd recommend bringing along the fam.

Go Karts are fun. They go pretty fast. You can have kid passengers for the little ones. Little pricey for a 4-minute ride. Bumper Boats are kind of fun. They have a squirt gun that kids love to use relentlessly. Expect to be soaked at the end of that ride. Mini putt is kind of a waste. The course is not "kid friendly" at all. A few holes are so slanted that you can't even get your ball off the wall. There are some holes where your ball can get washed away. Bricks along the edge are loose and can be an ank

Paid a ridiculous amount of money to go on the ropes course. It's very small. They tell you you're welcome to stay as long as you like. My daughter had a bathroom emergency and they wouldn't allow her to go back up. NOWHERE does it say you cannot go back up if you need to come down. My son came down early because he was afraid. No problem that's our choice. It was also NOT told to use verbally so we could tell our daughter to try and hold it etc. At least let people know your policy and post it somewhere. S

Can't speak to the rest of the place but the mini golf is simply awful. Dirty, overgrown, poorly kept, definitely not good for kids due to all the slanted areas. Avoid the mini golf.

Played for 30 minutes, kids did go carts, bumper boats, and the climbing course.. it was over 200$, almost 300$? There was also no one there so less kids to race on the track and do bumper boats with. Fun, but won't go again. TOO MUCH MONEY

Google said this place was open until 6. We walked up to the counter at 5:31 (on the dot) and were told we couldn't mini golf because we got there after 5:30. You're really going to turn people away because of a 1 minute difference?! Talk about awful customer service!!! We then went one minute down the road to Weirs Mini Golf (formerly Logs of Fun) and they weren't even open for the season yet, but the owner decided to let us play for FREE anyways. Now that's real customer service! I'd suggest taking your b

Little bit of everything here: fun but not crazy ropes course, some go karts, mini golf, "bumper boats" and a little arcade. I can only really speak for the ropes course, but it was fun, a medium challenge, and good for the price. Overall this seems like a good place to take kids for a special fun day.

Rode the carts with my wife, my birthday boy and his friend and really enjoyed it. The track and cars are in good condition and are def faster than F*n T*wn! The bungee jump is a bit tricky, prob bc my son is only @ 60 lbs, but with encouragement from the attendant, he finally was able to do a couple of backflips and walked away with a sense of accomplishment. The high ropes course is awesome; many different levels of challenges to choose from or avoid. Great view of Weirs Beach, Laconia from the top level!

Amazing mini golf!! Super nice and friendly new owners!! Got a hole in one of hole 15 and buddy got hole in one on hole 10! Pretty place right next to the channel! Will come back a bunch!! By the way I'm talking about the logs of fun course!!

The batting cages are really run down, almost comically, but it's kind of part of the charm. I've been going there since the '90s and would still keep going. But it'd be nice to not need an attendant to stop what he's doing so he can feed balls in the back to keep the machines running.

We went early in the season so we just missed the bummer boats. This place is great ?? They are safe and fun all in one. The owner was walking around talking with people. I love how it felt like they welcomed is to the place. Definitely will be going back.

Bumper boats are awesome, they even have water guns on the side that allow spectators to shoot water at the riders for a few quarters. Go carts are great as are the workers and they have 3 double cars so large groups can ride with kids. Only down sides: too many bugs (got bit by 2 horseflys) and batting cages are slow to load. Recommend

What a blast?. Go-karts were fun across all ages ? and the bumper pool ride was a great way to cool down. We had a million laughs. Great family vibe here.

My grandsons and I stopped there yesterday and was asking questions about pricing and height requirements... the extremely RUDE young man behind the counter just seemed so put out to even have to exert himself to do his job . The only reason why I am giving this place 3 stars because the very polite very FRIENDLY young lady that came out to help us with the bumper boats apologized for the idiot behind the counter and made sure all the kids had fun!!

Not a bad trace track for the kids along with bumper boats, batting cages and climbing ropes. Expensive, but the kids do like the track. There is sometimes a bad smell in the local area. Also, expect to get completely soaked on the bumper boats as they squirt water.

The track was very fun but one lady who worked there was absolutely terrible. If I could give 0 stars I would. $3.50 for 5 baseball swings. Oh wait, we didn't play baseball because the machine took our money and the lady wouldn't give it to us. Place is trash...smh...

We visited solely for the go karts. Midday on a Monday so it was just us on the track. Staff was courteous. We had a blast. Yes, the facility is run down a bit but the Karting was just fine - and inexpensive too.

Best go karting place around New England. Really cheap, family friendly fun. Staff workers are amazing, especially the cashiers. Complete with trampolines and a refreshing aracade. Also a bumper boat pool.

shouldn't! Place is awesome ,it has a little something for everyone from go karts to bumper boats ,batting cages n a kind of technical mini golf course plus a couple more things definitely worth a visit!

All the young guys that work there are awesome unfortunately theres a blonde girl who is miserable and rude. I would have fired her if I was the owner. Luckily the guys that work there made up for it.

Was on vacation the girl behind the counter immediately argued my child wasn't tall enough she clearly was then after I'm assuming owner who was nice helped us she still made us recheck heigh had attitude the whole time for 50.00 for the few mins they were up there not worth her attitude then the other girl who was at the tree area attitude was worse

We had a ball. But it's a little pricey

Great place to have some fun with kids and adults!

We had so much fun. It was raining and they opened batting cages just for us. Staff curtious. Sometimes it is all about who your with and the staff and nailed it this weekend.

Pretty fun place. Some attractions are a little run down but the ones that are working are great. Recommend go karting and bumper boats.

Called first to make sure the go-carts were open. Drove a half hour to get there only to find out they were closed.

We had our 2 grandchildren boys 6 n 10. We didn't do everything but what we did was very enjoyable. Our 6 year old did the bumper boats and needed some help coming in, staff so patient.

Not as nice as online pictures show. Arcade is old, looks a little run down. Go carts were fun.

karts are fun. my seat was wet though.

Go karts, batting cages, rock hounding, bumper boats, rope climbing

Great place to take the younger kids, water cars, go carts, climbing good fun for the family.

Closed for the season I guess? I went last weekend after checking the hours on Google, looking at their website, and calling their phone number ("We are open daily") and the whole place was shut down, obviously for an extended period of time. Very unprofessional that this wasn't posted anywhere.

Girl stayed late so we could hit extra balls and was very nice, thank you!

I went with my grandson, no one, no one was there, only us, no one waiting, no line. Paid, for maybe 3 minutes.

Run down dump with good operating bumper boats and go carts. Everything else is in rough shape.

Grandkids loved it. Need to get a few smaller carts for the vertically challenged.

Smooth track and governors tuned perfectly for it. Made a few runs and had a blast.

Absolute waste of time and money. Horribly maintained ancient equipment and horrible staff. Do. Not. Go. Here.

What a blast! Took the 4 grandkids.

Its ok if you just do go karts and water bumpers boats. Nothing really else to do.

Had one rude employee john the manager is awesome guy handle the rude employee very professional

Love a place where you buy your tickets and are left to play.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”

Why are arcade prize games so exciting to play?

Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025!
