Cliff and Henry were amazing!! We brought nine 12 & 13 yr old boys to come play for most of their first time and they were so good with them. They brought the laughs, the energy needed, and let the boys have such a good time for my son's 13th birthday. There was a really good chance rain was going to ruin the day but Cliff kept in contact with me to make sure we were comfortable with moving forward or rescheduling and everything worked out so well. We couldn't be happier!! read more

Had my husband's birthday celebration here and it was a blast! The age range varied from 50+ to 11 year olds. My Daughter had her group of friends, my Son had his buddies, and I jumped in too because why not?! The service was great from start to finish. Three hours was just enough to get a good celebration and paintball party going. Never too old to duck! Let's go! read more

Awesome energy and badass players . True paintball spirit. Rawr!!!! Gods of paint have rained barrels of painted spirit on this sacred land.

Would give this place 10 stars if I could. APP is a true gem of a park nestled in the golden hills of Livermore, California. The fields are beautiful, well maintained, and offer a variety of gameplay for players of all ages and skill levels. Clif and the rest of the team there are unbelievably welcoming, friendly, and professional - they have probably created the best vibe of any paintball park I have been to. APP has an exceptional community that loves the sport and it's genuinely really fun to be around that energy. Weekends here are well attended without being crowded - plenty of parking/seating while the teams are well sized. Whether you are with a group or solo / experienced or brand new, I highly recommend you check out APP. read more

American Paintball Park is awesome! We did a private party there for my 10yo and his friends and everyone had a fantastic time. Cliff, the owner, was very welcoming and made sure everyone had a great (and safe!) time. The ref that ran our games was super friendly and kept the action going during our three hour slot. If you are planning a group outting or birthday party, I would highly reccomend checking them out! read more

Had my son's birthday party here during the winter break and everyone in our party had a blast (no pun intended). Arranging the party was absolutely seamless with the owner (Clift) and he is very responsive. Prices were reasonable too and I 100% recommend this place to anyone with teenage boys. One of the best birthday parties my son has ever had and the kids haven't stopped talking about it. Thanks Clift :) read more

Cliff is the man. For many reasons, I adopted this place last year as my new home field. I love this sport and can tell that the owner, Cliff, and his crew do, too. They treat their customers tremendously and want everyone to have a fantastic time. The regulars are a friendly group of talented players who are happy to help you improve. If you're a rec ball player looking for a competitive but laid-back environment, you just found it. I've also witnessed several birthday parties of rental players who always have a good time. Highly recommend checking out APP! read more

Has a year really passed?? Here we are again!! Another birthday party.. same place (prob different time) and same pizza place (Pizza Guys on Vasco spot on same as last time too!!) Not much to add except Cliff was awesome, place is fairly laid back (reminds me of my past skydives in Byron).. the paintballers and staff are all great to be around. Great vibe. This year we were here for my twins 13th birthday. They all loved it. Just dress for it! Paintballs can hurt if not covered, hence, I got less photos as the path up the hill where they went the second half this year worried me in my workout tights and short sleeve top.. the kids were all dressed for the occasion and only a few bruises but all say well worth the fun.. We LOVED it... AGAIN! read more

American Paintball Park is not Just paintball. Sure that's what you go there for but you leave there truly feeling a sense of the community they've built. Cliff goes above and beyond to ensure your kids have fun and do it safely. The other community members follow his lead by also making sure things are safe and fun. My son and his friends had an awesome time (they went both Saturday and Sunday!) and I did too. We will definitely be back! read more

Been going to this place for about 3 months or so, gotta say it's the best paintball park in the Bay Area! The fields are really well put, the owner and staff are always friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They also have great packages for big groups so if it's your first time you'll have a blast! read more

I visited APP for the first time today and had an amazing experience. I heard about APP because a bunch of their regulars/employees come to my home field and I absolutely love working when they all come by. They always come to my home field in large groups, are always super respectful, and they are very very skilled. I figured I'd finally give them a visit. Some small things that I really appreciated happened right when I turned in. They have a bunch of American flags waving around and every wood post has some decommissioned rental masks draping down. They make it very clear that if you're looking for the paintball field, you're in the right place. It really gets you pumped. Another random thing is that I love that there's two lanes for coming in and out. If you're a paintballer that visits many places, you know that most fields always have one lane for both incoming and outgoing traffic. As for this review, the staff here is amazing! I walked up to the front with my guys and was instantly welcomed by Cliff the owner. I love his positive energy along with the rest of the team. The field is pretty awesome too. It's one large field that they separate into smaller segments. Pricing here is solid. 30 bucks for self-equipped players + the price of paint. Their website says that you can bring your own paint as long as the "fill" of the paint fits their criteria. I brought some of my own paint but I made sure to purchase a few cases out of respect for the park. Paintball businesses deserve all the money that they can get to help grow the sport. If I were to guess, they run games every 20-30 minutes which seems like the perfect pace. I love that they get a game going and then switch sides immediately after so that we get the most out of our gameplay. As for the environment, I love how intimate the staging area can be. It feels pretty compact so you're always sitting with everyone else waiting the play. The sense of community is very very strong here. Overall I enjoyed myself and can go as far as saying that this is my new favorite place to play. Given that I live in Walnut Creek, this can damn near be my new home field that I can frequent. I love the field. The parking lot/staging area is great. Staff is amazing and the business is ran very professionally. I'll be back! read more

Caleb (I believe that's how we spell his name) was a fantastic facilitator. He was informative and patient. Everyone who worked there, was friendly, approachable, helpful and fast. Will come back again! read more

Great place for paintball. Lots of different games. Lots of help around. The owner and his help were perfect. Easy sign up and games all day. Hpa tank refills too. Today was my first time there. I'm going back tomorrow. read more

I book a 3 hr party pass for Sunday January 14, 2024 and we had about 13 people playing and it was a great experience of fun and pain (if you don't wear a lot of layers). We had 3 birthday in the crew. They gave us rentals of what you need (gun, mask, air tank, and paint balls) totally worth. The best part there's a dog name Chicken. He's the cutest!!! Had too much fun that I forgot to take a picture lol. 3 hrs seems like a lot but the time passes by really quickly! read more

Thank goodness American Paintball park is in the east bay. The owner Clif is really great. Connor was out coach for the day, and he goes above and beyond to make the experience perfect. We try to come out as often as we get the chance because this pb park is hands down the best in the Bay Area/ nor cal. We love it here. The vibe is awesome and so are the people. read more

TL;DR: American Paintball Park is a _fantastic_ paintball park for both self-equipped and rental players. I recently returned to paintball after a 10 year break. I purchased a decent marker loadout on a whim and decided to give APP a shot with my brother based on stellar reviews. We went last Sunday (early December 2021). It was easy to find the field & park in the large lot. Clif, the owner, introduced himself and gave us a warm welcome right off the bat. He and his staff (including the refs) were top-notch all day. Prices were very good. The two paint options are fine - self-equipped players are not restricted to field paint. The "main game" runs all day with 10ish minute breaks and rotates through 6 different fields. It changes in size based on the number of players at the field. It got up to 14v14 (mostly self-equipped) at one point, but averaged probably 8v8, which was great. I was worried that there wouldn't be enough self-equipped players to fill the field - this was NOT the case. The other players were mostly regulars. All were quite friendly. There's a lot of "awesome marker, can I shoot it, want to shoot mine?" at the range. There were multiple rental birthday parties throughout the day. They were placed on private fields. There is more than enough room in the staging area for 50+ people. A couple notes: - APP does not serve food (besides water/sodas), but you can order to the field through DoorDash, and staff will hold the food for you if you're mid-game! - APP can only fill HPA to 3k PSI; I ran a 50ci tank but will use a 68ci next time All in all, I'm stoked to return to APP regularly once the weather clears up. APP is doing a wonderful job keeping paintball alive! read more

If I could give 10 stars I would! Clif is awesome, I love how he goes in depth with the rules right before. The area is huge, it's most definitely a park :). The young men that take you to your location are super sweet and respectful as well. I love how they give breaks in between as well. Thank you all for the great customer service!!! You guys rock! read more

American Paintball Park - Paintball mask, you get to keep - Sports Clubs Near Me - Livermore, California

What a well run and inviting place to play paintball! I booked a 2 hr package for my boo's birthday, and have been getting lots of texts from all attendees about how much fun they had at American Paintball Park. It's a beautiful, spacious property with plenty of parking, and once we started playing, no one wanted to stop. Clif introduced himself, was extremely friendly and sweet, and helped me wrangle my party together in a timely manner to get us geared up and ready. Some of the members of my crew were late, and I worried that it would cut into our field time, but the staff was so incredibly understanding and easy going about the delay-they got us started late but gave us a full two hours of field time. Was not expecting that but am so grateful that they were flexible and low key! Chris was our ref and our chaperone(for lack of better words) and he fit right in with everyone and made us all feel comfortable. He was cracking jokes with us, paying close attention to the games in play, and keeping us safe. Awesome! I want to come back every weekend, and it's due entirely to the friendly folks that operate this park-the welts all over my body are something that I remember fondly, even though they hurt real bad. Thank you for such a great day! read more

American Paintball Park - Birthday boy getting showered in affection - Sports Clubs Near Me - Livermore, California

Located beyond Downtown Livermore, about 20 from San Ramon/Dublin. Nice farming area and big outdoor fields. This a great family oriented business, but they also attract the competitive paintball with rate that accommodate all levels. They provide free, high quality face masks, they don't fog up and keep you from when shot in the face. The staff and referees were very helpful and professional. I went with a private party, $50 per person 10 minimum. Prepaid through PayPal. Includes free face mask( good quality), Tippman rental gun, 1 case of paintballs, 3 hours and your own host/referee. All day pass is $55 person and you must use their paintballs. read more

Had a blast! Multiple terrains, really cheap paintballs. We ended up with $25 each for 3 hours including everything (usage of the terrain, the rental guns, the paintballs etc). Best of all, the referees/instructors stay with you the whole time, are extremely professional, and guide you through the ins-and-outs of how each terrain is designed so you could see the unique strategies applicable to each terrain. Nice! Nice place to bring a large party or organize a group outing. Where else can you get a legitimate reason to inflict pain on your friends? read more

I scheduled a 10-person Bronze party for my son's birthday. (this is in 2018 and I'm just now finishing the review--oops!) Anyway, we had like 7 and the guy who helped us encouraged me to join in so the teams would be even. Holy COW, was it fun. We did 2 - 3 rounds on the flats and 1 up by the "castle"... until one of our party spotted a snake near him! Not a rattler and I think not poisonous, and they roped off the area right away. Note that getting hit by a paintball can hurt like a mofo--especially on the head (even though everyone was wearing helmets that were provided with the party). Rang my bell but good. But I tagged my son on the next round! lol Super fun. Do it do it do it. read more

Clif was an amazing host. From communications leading up to our sons party to his hearty greeting on the day of. The service was top notch and the people equally top shelf. Chris our party concierge (referee) was amazing with these eager 15/16 year olds. Personable and fun. Everyone walked away smiling and had a great time. Thanks to all at American Paintball Park. read more

My husband planned a birthday party for our 13 year old son. The planning and booking process was fast and easy.

We love this place! We've been coming here with our crossfit fam since 2018 at least once a year. The owner, Cliff, and his staff are super friendly and very safety conscious. And they have an adorable doggy named Chicken who roams the picnic table area greeting all of the guests. We recently had a birthday party for a good friend's 10 year old boys and we had a blast. The kids had so much fun and we were comfortable that Cliff would keep them safe with his safety rules about muzzle caps and masking in all of the designated areas. We had a great time waging war on each other and are already planning our next trip back. Highly recommend. read more

To the owner, thanks for making out FIRST paintball experience so easy and memorable! It took some balls lol for THREE GIRLS and the only girls being there. But everyone was so polite and nice. After we entered to play. There was a employee that was really rude, after he asked us 'Is this your first time, did anyone even explain you the rules?' No sht Sherlock. We wouldn't be asking questions now would we? But I let that slide since the owner was so polite. While playing the team they put us in, were nice. But you gotta consider the type of age group you're playing with this is sorta for kids. He, the owner explained everything with ease, and if it wasn't for him I can't imagine being there and possibly having the first worst experience but it DIDN'T. He even asked why three girls all of sudden decided to play paintball. He made the situation so light headed and easy. Thank you so much. It shows your sincerity. I have mad respect for him and his team EXCEPT that one guy. But you get the idea. Lol. read more

American Paintball Park - All set. - Sports Clubs Near Me - Livermore, California

I came here to celebrate my birthday with high expectations, considering the overwhelmingly positive reviews on Yelp. American Paintball Park did not disappoint! Securing a time slot for my private party was easy, and Clif was very responsive to my emails, even when he was out on vacation. Almost all of my friends and family who came were first-timers, and we were all a little nervous but nonetheless very excited to play. All necessary equipment was provided with the purchase of our package, including marker, hopper, air tank, paintballs, and mask. Since we got the package, we were able to play private games with our group on 5 different playing fields. The refs were clear on the rules, regulated and ensured fair play, and even gave us strategic tips on how to defeat the other team! Tips: -If you're inexperienced, get a group of newbies together and purchase a package! This way you won't get mixed in with the more experienced players and you'll stay in the game longer. -Keep your mask! It looks really cool and I plan on using it for when I go snowboarding! -Bring water and snacks for in between games. You will be tired! -Wear thick clothes and preferably something that covers your neck. I got hit in the collarbone a few times and it freakin hurt. Clif really made this a a great experience for all of us newbies. He was so friendly, and got everyone excited and pumped up to play. You can tell he really loves what he does. Everyone had such a great time and I was hearing comments all day about how much fun they all were having. I definitely will be returning. Thank you Clif and American Paintball Park for an awesome birthday! read more

This is my go to field in the bay area! Cliff and his staff are awesome, they are so helpful and make you feel very welcomed. I have been here a couple times and each time has been nothing short of great. This is the perfect field to take anybody who might be interested in playing paintball for the first time. They are open on the weekends and weekday by reservations. The field here is nice and it seems very well taken care of, there are a couple different field options and I think one of the most popular fields is the doors field. The road into the park is dirt and has awesome decorations that gets you hyped for a day of paintball, It always gets my hyped whenever I drive through it. There are a lot of tables, benches, and parking available. It is in Livermore so it gets really hot in the summer so remember to bring lots of water, you will need it. The field is dog friendly and they have a cool dog that hangs out around the staging area named chicken! The field also lets you bring in your own paint as long as its not red, white, blue or pink filled. The games are combined for rec players and rentals unless you are a private group but the staff splits the teams up very evenly so it never seems one sided. I love that the games have multiple staff that will run up to you through line of fire just to give you a thorough paint check as if you are in an actual game. The staff also does chrono checks before each game which not many paintball parks do. They also make it very loud and clear when someone is out to alert everyone not to continue shooting at them. Out of all the parks I have been to so far, I believe this park has the best staff running games bar none. You can tell that they care about the safety and enjoyment of their players by the things I listed. The format for the games is that you play two halves and switch sides each time. They always change fields after every game too so it doesn't get too stale. At noon there is a 30 minute (I believe) lunch break where you can buy food from them or call to have food delivered ahead of time, they allow you to cook on site so my group typically starts grillin up some burgers for lunch. There are usually a good amount of players at this field every weekend and all the regulars are very friendly and will answer any questions you might have. I think this is the only field in the bay area that does specials during holidays where they lower the price of admission, paint, and have a bunch of giveaways. The last one I attended on the 4th of July had a turnout of about 40+ players and I won a jersey in the giveaway. You can typically find out about their specials on the facebook page or forums. This is definitely one of the best field for rec ball in northern California, I would recommend it to anyone asking for a field to play at. I will continue to come back here to play, I always have a great time I am sure you will too and I cant stop emphasizing how great the staff are. read more

Hands down the best paintball field I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. American Paintball Park has you covered. Whether you're an experienced player looking to throw down or a younger / inexperienced player looking to celebrate a birthday party, this is THE FIELD to be at. You may find that getting a group of friends together to schedule a private party game where you play separately from the self-equipped players in the main game can yield the most positive "paintball birthday / bachelor / corporate party" experience possible. Staff are friendly, competent, active, and hard working. Teams are balanced every game and markers have their velocity checked before each game to ensure everyone is having the most fun possible in the safest way possible. Prices are very reasonable and you can rest assured that much needed Lime Gatorade will cost you no more than a dollar. read more

I have never taken my boys to paintball and we threw him a private b day party at American paintball. Cliff and his lovely wife and staff hands down are the most kindest folks. They exceeded all of my expectations, answered all my questions and big day came, 12 teenage boys had the best time of their lives. They gave them all the gears, bullets, pep talk and guided them the entire time, 4- 5 games against each other. I recommend private parties if they are teenagers, well worth it since some adults came in with full experience and fully geared. It's not cheap, but they had a great time. Before party ended, ran to Costco 10 mins away and picked up pizza and ate it there with no problems. Cliff even gave my young one a free mask and let him monitor the game with the instructor:)) Great staff, excellent service. Will be back again! read more

"Sun's out, guns out!" (No, literally. It was probably 90 degrees out there.) Great park for beginners! Booked a private party for 28 people for three hours and everything went off without a hitch. ($55 per person gets you rental markers, face masks, two pods and a bag of paintballs.) Cliff and his staff were super helpful, from breaking down the basics of our equipment to coaching each of our teams on the field. We even got to keep our face masks as souvenirs! read more
