I went here last week to go to the driving range, haven’t been in a few years. Truly amazed with all the updates and the super friendly staff. The top tracer is awesome. Great place to bring the entire family. Driving range, mini-golf, batting cage, paintball, bowling, laser tag, and even an arcade. Definitely taking my nephew next time I go. Highly recommend!

I recently went to the Sports Center of Connecticut in Shelton, but I had extra gift cards that are unused. My friends and I had a great time mini-golfing and the facility has many other activities. One gift card is worth $50 and the other is worth $120, but Id be willing to sell them for a much lower price. If you are interested, please email me at [email protected]!

Best driving range in the area! Love the addition of the TVs and TopTracer that tracks all of my shots (good and bad ones) and the option of playing a round of virtual golf.Also have brought my nieces to play mini golf and go to the arcade and they absolutely love it here. So many different activities across the board for a get together with some friends or a family outing/birthday party. Staff is always helpful and super friendly. Highly Recommend.

Which makes me happy.Programs like:Stratford PAL hockeyLearn to SkateNY Rangers programD-leagueSummer camp includes:Laser tagSkatingMini-golfGolf rangeArtBowlingArcadeBatting cagesThe facility is well kept and spacious. The staff is extremely helpful. Good pricing. My family is here year round, I’m ok with that. Worth the money.

Fun family place. Mini golf is still pretty new. Some of the shrubbery is overgrown and needs to be trimmed. Interferes with the golfing a little. Fun bowling needed some maintenance as the game glitched a few times and we needed staff to reset the game. The arcade was actually nice and updated with new games. A little pricey but lots of fun.

Review №22

I come to the gym, and overall the gym is fine. But the REAL issue is the parking lot. People often take up 2 parking spots because the lines are faded or they park straight instead of on an angle, as the parking lot is designed. It’s also extremely dark in the back lot near the gym entrance, which could also be why people park terribly. Please invest in better lighting and re-paint the lines in the lot.

Great Hockey facilities and tons of other activities for kids of all ages to do. The batting cages are really nice and there are a lot of batting cages so theres not wait. My son plays hockey in the league here every year. We have been coming here for over 10 years now. Great way to spend a weekend afternoon when theres nothing else to do.

Fun place to take the family. Reasonably priced fun for anyone of all ages. I often find myself with my daughter at the driving range. $20 for a big bucket of golf balls. They also have golf clubs that you can borrow if you don’t have any

Place is really great if you’ve got a little one playing hockey, but with all the money they pull in, somebody should tell them to turn the heaters on around the rinks. Just because it’s not winter, doesn’t mean it’s not freezing for the parents on the outside watching their kids. I shouldn’t have to wear a down jacket in July to watch my son practice

Sometimes the batting cage motor system gets stuck, but they never question whether or not you are lying about it.... I find that to be VERY accommodating and stress free. They just push the balls back into place and say enjoy. Excellence.

Great facility for entire family. Driving range, mini golf, batting cages, arcade and bowling. Not the cheapest option for a night out but also not outrageously priced. We have fun anytime we go.

Review №47

Overall, my daughter and I had an okay experience. She had fun, but we always have fun together whatever we do. I feel like its much too expensive for what you get. I spent about $50 total for mini golf and laser tag. Mini golf took about 35 minutes, and then 20 minutes for laser tag - so about $50 an hour for entertainment. Thats an expensive hour for a dad and his kid. I guess thats why we spend more time outside hiking and fishing.

Review №49

The place is okay if you’re trying find something to do for the day and don’t mind looking at the price tag. For what the games are worth, the prices are outrageously high and the facility itself is very run down in some areas, especially the batting cages and paintball target area. The staff is friendly enough when needed, but seem to put “hanging out” with each other first before addressing customers. Overall it’s a good place to mindlessly spend a few hours on the weekend, but only if your wallet is prepared for it too.

The minigolf course is still in decent condition and challenging enough to be interesting but not frustrating. Good variety of course design too. Its one of the better ones Ive been to in CT.

Review №54

The place is pretty run down namely the paintball, mini golf, and batting cage areas. For what you get (rundown equipment and areas) it is incredibly expensive. The driving range is $$ for a very small amount of balls. The whole place is pretty low value but high cost. Overall, the staff is somewhat friendly but are definitely more interested in socializing with each other than assisting customers in any capacity. There’s a lot to do here but it definitely comes at a price. I would recommend another activity for families in the area.

Good family fun, but the kids wore through the front part activities (bating cage, arcade, driving range, etc) really quick. Ice skating appears world class, but we didnt do it

Review №57

We’ve been coming here since it opened intermittently because it’s one of the only games in town when you’re looking for a driving range, particularly off-season. However, they are clearly taking advantage of that because their prices have rapidly escalated to the point of it being just simply ridiculous. How can they charge $24 for a bucket of golf balls to hit and sleep at night? Every time I return to this place the bucket of balls price has gone up by two dollars. At some point people have to just stop going and maybe they’ll get a little bit more realistic about the pricing.

Gr
Review №58

Its been a while since I visited the driving range and not much has changed in the last 10 years. Its ok for what work you need to put in on your swing. I think to ball prices are on the high side and should be lowered. And its really the only game in town, so I guess they can charge whatever they want.

Would recommend only for cold weather practice as they have heated terd. Very poor view of shots landing so hard to judge distance. Also very expensive.

The driving range is great but the balls are so expensive. $22 for 108 balls. That would be $10-15 anywhere else. I wish they would drop their prices on them. Until they do that its too expensive

Driving range, batting cages, arcade, ice rink, mini golf and more make this spot a great choice for entertaining folks of all ages. The prices are a bit steep, but the facility is well maintained and can accommodate groups of most sizes. They offer birthday parties and group events. Food and beverages are also available. If you are athletic and looking for something to do its a great choice.

We had a birthday party here today and it was a awful! My sister got the “Dance Party” package for my 4 yr old nephew. They had promised a party room next to a dance floor and when we arrived we had a party room completely disconnected from the “dance floor” by a room where they hold dog trainings. We had to go one flight of stairs down and another one up in order to go from the party room to the dance floor. The dance floor could easy be called a storage room because it was completely dirty and it had multiple stacked chairs and folded tables against the wall, this did not look like an appropriate place to have a party! We also had 2 employees that were supposed to play the music and get the party going, but they did not even have a playlist ready and put zero effort on entertaining the kids. Not worth a dime!

Review №76

Took my son here to play some games at their arcade and sadly, found it run down, very dirty and 12 games either not turned on our broken down. I cant tell you when the floors were last vacuumed. 3 of the games you couldnt even put tokens into. Staff was bouncing from the front desk and the prize counter. This unfortunately meant you would just have to wait around until they were done up front, to redeem your ticket. This place used to be better staffed and cleaner but I wont be going back until they get their act together. By the way, we were there in the morning, so the messy floors had been from the previous day, or month, as it would be more likely.

Review №79

Golf range is good except for the price, $24 for 100 balls is a bit steep, dont mind paying that if they increase the ammount of balls, balls are also pretty worn out. Also maybe the management needs to look into NOT allowing people to SMOKE in the range, majority of people who go there are non smokers and also there are kids and teens who go there to practice and play, just really disappointed when I approached the front desk about it and they just said... NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT... theyre allowed to.

I really enjoyed this facility. I had my 6year old party there. It was perfect for the age group with the room and private exercise time. We then spent an entire hour longer in the arcade below. I will be going back later for laser tag with the older kids.

Eh, this place is ok. We went to the arcade and several games were on but not working which we only found out after putting tokens in. There was only one kid working so he could never get around to getting up replacement tokens/tickets. Wanted to go ice skating but it is ridiculously overpriced, they even charge for the skate trainer for little kids.

Review №91

Excellent family destination. Fun for all ages. Neon Duckpin bowling on mini lanes with it without bumpers is a sure win for little children. Mini golf course is well kept. Nice driving range, batting cages (fast and slow pitch), and paintball target range. Indoor ice rink has public skate several times a week (see their website for schedule). A good value for a fun family afternoon.

Review №92

DO NOT GO HERE FOR THE BATTING CAGES. The other stuff is fine but the batting cages are beat to sh**. Ive been forced to go here for almost 2 years because of distance and I can guarantee you that only 3 out if 8 cages will be working. The 3 that do work will jam up on you at least once. You usually have to go inside to ask for help, but the machines are so bad that you cant really blame the general staff for not being able to fix them. The mid-speed cages have had out of order signs hanging on them for over 6 months. Embarrassing, as the investment to fix them would be no more than a couple hours if labor.Night time is even worse, as most of the lighting is broken -- which is relatively important when balls are getting shot at you. The lights on the slow cages usually work, but the fastest cages literally have no lights. Since the medium cages never work -- youre left with the choice between well lit, super slow pitches - or - super fast cages that are in the dark -- dont come here expecting to work on your game.Generally just terrible maintenance and management of the batting cage. These guys are good with golf, arcades, bowling... But its clear they dont understand the little things when it comes to baseball. Dont be that guy that blows the $35 on batting tokens.

The concept of this place is a great idea. I usually go for the golfing. Ive also mini golfed here. Theres rarely anything to do around here besides go out for food, drinks, or go to the movies so Im happy a place like this exists. Its great for date night. They also have an arcade for kids and they throw birthday parties. To give a bad review for their prices is a bit harsh considering inflation. Its a business and they have to keep running somehow.
