We've been supporting Amanda and her dream of creating this incredible place for fun, games, candlepin bowling and food for the past few years- and it keeps getting better each time!! Garret greeted us by the door and helped us get our shoes! The service, glow bowling, and arcade, are fabulous! We love it here and can't wait to see Amanda and her family what else she has in store!

However when I reached out to the owner for a reservation she was so sweet and communicated back that she's a one woman show no other employee, a college student (which is why the schedule is limited) working to make this business successful, I knew we would go regardless if it was a rainy day so we made reservations for another night. We made reservations for 8:30 so we could get dinner and dessert out of the way and could enjoy some glow bowling. I messaged her our shoe sizes ahead of time, she had them out and ready for us upon arrival. We had the best time! If you are in the area def. try to support this small business owner. Be patient as she is her only employee and have fun!

Not to be confused with the Fort Knox that holds the gold. This was a cool side trip…read more Located on the west bank of the Penobscot River in Prospect, Maine, in an area known as the Penobscot Narrows. Fort Knox is one of the best-preserved military fortifications on the New England seacoast. The fort has many unique architectural features and a rich history behind its walls. It is America's first fort named after Major General Henry Knox. ​ During the country's infancy, Maine was repeatedly involved in northeast border disputes with British Canada. In fact, the area between Castine and the rich lumber city of Bangor was invaded and occupied by the British during the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Fort Knox was established in 1844 to protect the Penobscot River Valley against a possible future British naval incursion. It was designed by Chief Engineer Joseph Totten, with a number of other engineers serving as superintendents of construction from 1844 - 1869, among them Isaac Ingalls Stevens and Thomas L. Casey. The fort was named for Major General Henry Knox, America's first Secretary of War, who was born in Boston but retired to Thomaston, Maine, in 1796. The fort garrisoned its first troops from 1863 to 1866. These troops were mostly volunteers undergoing training before being sent to their active posts and included members of the celebrated 20th Maine. Troops were briefly stationed at the fort during the Spanish-American war in 1898 but never saw military action. If you're in the area and enjoy history, especially military history it's worth your time to tour.

This is a fun hike, which will lead you to an interesting historic quarry filled in with water, a…read morecool place for swimming in the summer. The granite from the quarry has built many iconic structures in America, including the Washington Monument, the U.S. Senate Office Building, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the United Nations Building, the Philadelphia Mint, the Empire State Building, and several piers that support the Brooklyn Bridge. I've been hiking up to this quarry since my childhood. It can be a dangerous place if you're not careful. There's some broken glass and high cliffs. With that being said, I've been swimming in the Quarry many times and never had issues. It's an okay hike for kids, but they should be with adults for safety. This place is a lotta fun for teens; all throughout high school, my friends and I would visit frequently in the summer.

It was a nice 10 minute walk down a wooded, paved road to the lake. There were a surprising number of cars parked on the road meaning we weren't the only ones who didn't mind the walk. Since it is very early in the year the water is very cold! But the water and the beach is perfectly clean. It is a nice place to take the family for an afternoon at the lake. More hiking would have bumped the rating to 5 stars!

The girls stayed as far away from them as possible and two out of the three got swimmers itch. The lifeguards were very pleasant. There are multiple picnic tables with grills. There are two well maintained playgrounds and larger areas for parties. The picnic tables are mostly tucked under trees so that you can get shade. The beach is large and nice but mostly gravel. If they could keep the ducks out of the public swimming area, it would be a perfect spot.
