    Go cart racing

    No water features working. Staff was a little slow. A little pricey. Not a bad overall experience. Nice friendly environment. Aaaaasassasasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

    Go Carts, Bumper Car, Mini-Golf & Water Boats, Oh My! Here's a super fun place for the kiddos and adults to get their ride on. A mini amusement park just off Red Arrow Highway in Bridgman to have a fun afternoon. So for those families looking for fun and a break from the pool on a cloudy day. Be sure not to miss the arcade inside with skee-ball and some other fun games to boot! Snack bar too! Families check this fun spot out!

    I really enjoy good outdoor fun! Captain Mike's keep the unique retro fun park vibe alive and well. The staff is always so kind! I love racing my friends on the go carts. The bumper cars a BLAST! I love watching and playing on the bumper cars! If you are not a car racer or bumper car lover, there is so much more for you. Mini-golf, water boats, and batting cages are a few to name. There are treats and their prices are pretty reasonable! I always have fun here.

    Came here on our July 2014 vacation and really enjoyed ourselves. We stayed close to the border of Michigan and Indiana, and our drive to Captain Mike's was scenic and pleasant. Most memorable are the go-karts. I love that my son could ride with me (for free, no less!) and our double kart was just as fast --- maybe FASTER! --- than the single carts. Mother and son take the lead! Haha. We also enjoyed the bumper boats and the trampoline basketball. We didn't get to try the mini golf, as it was quite crowded and we didn't want to wait, but it looked like a cute, simple course good for young children. All staff members were friendly and courteous. Grandchildren of Captain Mike, I believe. We even saw the captain himself working on the ski-ball machine (I could tell because he really resembles the fun park's logo), and I think Mrs. Captain sold us our tickets. Celebrity encounters! My only real knock on the place is that they don't seem to have enough restrooms to accommodate the crowd. There is one women's and one gender neutral room, if I remember correctly. Both are located inside the arcade, and not much privacy is offered with the setup.

    fun fun fun I do not recommend the bumper boats, though the engines get too hot. But go carting is the best.

    Overpriced, not set up well, spend a lot more time waiting in the ticket line than you do on the activities.

    We went there for Father's Day. It's fun. The place could use some paint and updating. The staff is friendly.

    First off the owners are Detroit Tiger's fans that alone gets 5 stars. It's an older fun park. For the area it's good.

When confronted for their extremely over oiled lanes, oiled to the point where it was physically impossible to get any spin on the ball, the staff stated that the lanes were so oily because they where just oiled today. This is not an excuse. Lanes being freshly oiled should not be this slippery. The balls were so gross that they could not even be held. Multiple people in our group and on the lanes around us dropped the balls on their approach even when held perfectly. DONT COME HERE!

We got the 2 hr of activities/1 game of bowling wristband. It was well worth it. This place is very fun! We played a game of bowling, drove the go karts, played a round of mini golf, and played some arcade games. We also both got a cheeseburger and fries, soda, and I got a beer. I will review each activity below. Electric Go karts: This was by far both of our favorite attraction. It's so much fun to fly around the track, and that fact that it's completely indoors makes it even better. Mini Golf: This Mini golf course is small, a bit cramped, and doesn't have the fun effects that other courses have. However, I love the blacklight effect and the circus theme is VERY cute. That being said, both the paint and the carpet could use a slight touch up. I wouldn't pay for the Mini golf separately, but if you have the wristband it's worth one play. Bowling: the lanes were cool (they had a blacklight effect as well) and while we didn't do that well, both my husband and I had fun bowling again. As far as the food goes, we both agreed that the cheeseburgers were actually really good. I had a bottled Budweiser, but they also had a few tap selections as well. They have a TON of awesome arcade games as well. We played the basketball games, skeeball, the electronic bowling game and many more. They also have several activities we didn't try: The "Ninja" obstacle course, the bumper cars, and a trampoline like jumping attraction. If you are a parent looking for a cool place to host a birthday party, they have a decent sized private party room as well. Overall, I give Strikes and Spares 10/10. We both recommend it and are considering coming back on future date nights.

    Good evening, My…read morefamily and I visited Zao today and had a wonderful time. We utilized the batting cages, the mini golf, arcade, and go karts. My kids (8 y/o and 5 y/o) were so excited to exchange their tokens for prizes. While my 5 year old son was searching the prizes he would like to purchase, he somehow lost the card with all his tickets. He was so excited to use them so you can understand how devastated he was. We had just scanned the card and knew 380 tickets were on his card. On the verge of tears after seeing his sister with her prizes, your employee asked how he could help. We explained what happened and he took his time to add 380 tickets to a new card and let my son choose his prizes. You have no idea how much this changed our day. Instead of going home with a crying kid, he was so happy to walk away with a sword and candy bracelet. I hope I'm not getting the employee in trouble but he was a Nashville Predators fan. We don't travel to Valpo often so it was so nice to be taken care of. Please thank him for us and you have yourself a wonderful employee. We'll be back! -Shawn

Go-Carts are always fun, lines go by quick, staff is kind, only complaint for go carts is they dont give as much time as they used too. Laser tag is nice, if its hot though it will be very stuffy inside making it not as enjoyable in summer but any other season it is nice. Lastly for the attractions, mini golf. Mini golf is fun but its not like how it used to be. The areas that are supposed to have water are now drained which kinda takes some of the experience away. The courses arent as clean as they used to be and a lot of the old decorations are gone as well. I havent had their food other than the pizza and the pizza is very good. I would go there just for the pizza. I do think that 50 cents is a little ridiculous for a refill for as much money as this place makes. The attractions are a little overpriced. If you go here your most likely gonna spend a couple hundred dollars. It would be cool if they had like an all day pass or something like that. I do have to complain about how hot it is in there as well. Obviously they cannot control the heat but they only had one fan throughout the whole building which is definitely not enough. Everyone was fanning themselves down and sweating. So maybe so AC or more fans would be nice. Overall this place is always a pretty good experience but definitely has its flaws.
