The staff even had bug repellant set out at the start of the course. We loved the information that was provided about the surrounding areas and how that was tied to each hole's landscape. Staff was careful about cleaning clubs between use. Hole-in-Ones get a chance to spin a wheel and maybe win a prize. Again, the owners thought of a need in the area and met it with quality.

The skates looked like the original skates I wore in the 90s but they still function. I guess things were made better back then. The music was loud, too loud really, and it was crowded. But Santa was there. And the kids enjoyed the play area and it was pretty clean. The bathrooms could have been cleaner. The staff was helpful and attentive. The prices weren't terrible. Brought back memories. If the music hasn't been so loud I couldn't speak over it I would have given 5 stars.

Cons: We went just for Laser Tag, and I've never seen such a poorly run operation. We were told to go to the arcade area (very small) and ask for it there. The guy signed us up, then didn't utter a word and skated off to the rink to have fun. We waited for almost 2 hours before they called the laser tag groups. Session lasted for a few minutes, and half of that was spent changing broken equipment. We tried doing another session, but were told it would be a while, and the guy skated off again. My son left in tears after that, and we'll never be back. Not that it's really the fault of the business, but there were kids throwing bouncy balls on the skating rink and chasing after them without skates on, and they were allowed to continue. Very dangerous, I wouldn't want to skate there.

With tax, admission was over $40. I believe they also offer some kind of splash option for additional money. These prices are before you get anything to eat or drink and of course, most kids will want to play the video type games. These cost extra money. You could easily run through over $60 for two kids to play a couple of hours. Besides, about a fourth of the playground is for kids 3 and under, so the play area for those 4 and over is actually smaller than it first appears. All in all, my opinion is that this is an outrageously expensive place to take your kids. I would not do it again under any circumstances.

Part of a climbing tunnel is roped off because there's a tear in the fabric, yet kids are able to just climb through it. After spending $25 for a game card, many of the games took money off the card but did not work. It's a hassle trying to get a refund. The place looks a little dirty and paint is missing from the walls in places. Employees are nice and helpful. Owner who works there does not appear competent. I most likely won't return under the current conditions.

We paid for 36 holes and after our 1st 18 holes were over, we went to get our next round and were told "yes you paid for 36holes, but we're closing, so you don't have time." We were told Yelp was wrong and they close at 8 instead. I'm frustrated that knowing this, we weren't directed to only pay for 18. The facility was empty except for the two employees and our family. We spent $48 and were only able to play half the course when we could've been informed upon arrival that they were closing within the hour and instead of paying for 36 we should spend $25 and pay for 18.

We visited over winter break with our extended families but planned to have only a handful of…read morejumpers - 2 adults, 4 kids (7, 5, 3, 3) and an infant who is barely walking. We chose the "extreme fun" pass for everyone and were told that the infant would be the same price ($24.99) for everyone. What? She can't even walk. That's crazy. But okay fine, a policy is a policy, she can watch. So our total for 6 people was $150 + socks ($3 each) + tax but wait! There's a 5.5% fee for using a credit card so another $8+. The website casually mentions a "discounted cash price" but a 5% upcharge is absurd. In 2026 who carries around that kind of cash? When we asked about this up charge, the attendant grew very defensive and began trying to explain that the credit card company requires the charge and that it's not a fee they can eat as a business expense because they have to pay for Virginia gaming taxes or something. Look, I get it, I work in customer service too and don't always agree with my employer's policies (but still have to support them) but this man was acting like the fee would come directly out of his paycheck and being quite aggressive about it. We aren't stupid and know that businesses have out of pocket costs but pretending like they need to be passed on to the consumer at an exact 1:1 ratio is silly, ESPECIALLY when you're charging $3 for a $0.10 pair of socks. Anyways, we paid and kept it moving. The kids liked jumping and then the older girls liked the climbing walls. It wasn't very crowded and most of the bigger kids/teens were corralled in one of the dodgeball courts. I assume this is where all of the employees were too because there was absolutely no one available anywhere else on the floor. Not a huge deal because we had plenty of adults and our younger kids were safe to play on the other surfaces. They really liked the small playground (although it really should be more like 8 and under, 12 is pretty big for an area obviously for younger kids). The foam pits in the jousting area and ladder section were disappointing because the foam is old and crusty off and pretty gross but the trampoline parts were fairly clean. There is a section with "ninja" kind of activities that seemed to be an afterthought and had a lot of unfinished wood and a dangerous open area to the bottom of the trampoline springs that we stayed clear of but could be a big issue for older kids. When we were all getting tired of jumping and wanted to do the arcade and bumper cars is when things started going downhill again. We asked the person at the front for help with the bumper cars and he said someone on the floor could help but there was no one to be found. One employee at the front desk, one at the snack bar, and not a soul on the floor, no one at the climbing wall, and not a soul in the arcade/big slide area. They finally managed to find someone but were visibly annoyed so it was an uncomfortable situation. After we were done doing arcade games we went to the prize area to cash in our points for trinkets. The kids mostly played games that didn't get many points so I knew we wouldn't have a lot but we had 3 cards and wanted to combine the points to get a couple very small items. There were other families there with a gazillion points though and the man working there seemed super overwhelmed by the process and focused on their high ticket items, which is understandable. He told us the individual amounts but then when he was combining them the amount was somehow less than they were alone? He kept adding them but as other people came up he'd start doing things with them and mixing up everyone's cards. It was super confusing for everyone, especially our 2 kids who kept picking out treats and then being told actually no wrong amount. He finally came up with a number that was in the same ballpark as the initial individual cards and we got a couple bouncy balls. Overall, this was quite a day. The jumping part was fine but the customer service overall needs some serious help. They are obviously significantly understaffed which is annoying at best but potentially very dangerous with no one on the floor. The credit card situation is annoying too and should be more clear on the website, but truly the ability to take cards is a business convenience and expense that I expect a business to absorb.

Very disappointing customer service experience at Launching Pad today. We signed the waiver and…read morewent to the front desk, where four employees were sitting behind the desk. We stood there waiting, but no one acknowledged us or offered to help. My husband eventually asked if someone was going to assist us, and we were told that no one knew how to work the registers. What was most frustrating was that no one made any effort to find someone who did know how to operate the register. The employees simply continued sitting behind the desk while we waited. We ultimately decided to leave. If employees aren't trained to operate the registers, there should at least be someone available who can assist customers when they arrive. Having customers standing at the desk with no acknowledgment or effort to get someone to help is poor customer service. Hopefully management will address the training and customer service issues because this was not a good first impression.

Was recommended this place through BringFido.com because we were traveling through the area with…read moreour two small dogs and we were looking for a place to stop for lunch. This hidden gem did not disappoint! On the outside it's a little quirky, in the bestest way, it probably used to be an old service station that they converted. They had outside seating/patio area for us and our dogs to sit at. Our server was Jana, she was amazing! Straight away she came out with two bowls of water for our girls. I ordered the Dolly, with extra bacon and the house made potato chips. I also ordered a side of the potato salad as well as ordering their six dips*. My wife also ordered the Dolly but with their crinkle cut fries. We both agreed that the Dolly was amazingly delicious!! The house made potato chips were cooked to perfection, perfectly seasoned and went very well with any of the dips. The crinkle cut fries were crispy and well seasoned. We both enjoyed the mom's deviled egg potato salad and couldn't stop eating it! I enjoyed all of the dips, and my wife's favorites were the Dill dip, Jana's roasted garlic and onion, and the Appalachian Goddess. We were too full to eat them at the restaurant so we purchased two cookies to go-the fruity pebbles white chocolate chip and the cinnamon toast pumpkin. If you're ever in the area I highly recommend stopping here-ask for Jana, she's amazing. She was very attentive to us, and a cat lover! We would definitely stop here again if we're ever in the area!! They do have a very small parking area but we had no issues with parking.

I visited Billy Bob's Wonderland as a guest for my niece's birthday, so I can't speak directly to…read morethe pricing, but her family doesn't have much extra money and still chose this place - so I'd assume it's reasonably affordable. You're allowed to bring in an outside cake, but no other outside food or drinks. There's a good variety of arcade games for kids, teens, and adults, but not much for toddlers or very young children. The animatronics are definitely the standout feature - nostalgic and fun to watch - but the interior is pretty dark, and the exterior looks worn and overdue for a refresh. Overall, it's a decent spot for a birthday party or casual hangout, but it definitely shows its age. I'd call it a solid middle‑of‑the‑road experience.

While I wasn't the biggest fan of this arcade, I figured it was unfair for it to not have an online…read morepresence. To be honest, it barely has any presence at all: you can find very little about the place online, or even on the mall's website itself, and it has no direct phone number (the number I am adding to the listing is the mall's main directory). I should probably mention that it is in unit 790, on your right after you exit the JCPenney so you have a fighting chance of actually finding the place. So then you might be inclined to wonder: why did I care enough to find an arcade that doesn't seem to want to be found? Simple: I wanted to find a DDR machine to play, and there simply aren't that many anywhere these days. According to an old online source, there used to be a Tilt arcade here in Huntington Mall that had a DDR machine. I figured it wouldn't hurt to check, so I decided to stop by when I was already in the area for a Homegoods visit. Well, Tilt is no longer here, though it seems it was bought out by a local operator and rebranded as "Fun Time Arcade". Seeing as how I was the only customer there when I went, I'm curious if they informed anyone they still exist. As you can tell by the pictures I've added here, it's a bit like the nearby Camden Park: some old school charm but mostly just old. There is not a DDR machine; sadly they only have a Pump It Up one, which is far less fun. However, if you're into claw machines or ticket-winning games, they have tons of those, and they are filled with interesting prizes I haven't seen anywhere else (I got the distinct feeling they pretty much just put whatever they wanted into them, haha). Also, they have an original Time Crisis light-gun game, which is pretty cool since you can't find them at other arcades now that they have been replaced by Time Crisis 2 through 5. I didn't check out the prizes since I'm not really into ticket games, though they appeared to have a wide selection. As it stands, this arcade is fun to drop by if you want to play a light-gun game or bring some younger children to spend half an hour or so. Outside of that, not a ton to recommend it, and since arcades are somewhat out of vogue these days, I can't blame the owners for not being willing to shell out for some newer or classic games. Don't expect much, though still stop by if you really like arcades like I do. Overall: 2.5 out of 5 stars ----- Pros: - It's pretty much the only arcade around. You'd have to drive all the way to Charleston to find anything better. - The machines are well-maintained, I barely saw anything out of order (a rarity for modern-day arcades). - Games are affordable, with most of them costing about 50 cents a pop (and 25 cents for some of the claw machines). No tokens here, just quarters, so no worries about getting stuck with tokens you can't use. Cons: - Not a great variety of games, and don't expect to find anything that came out within the last 7-8 years. That said, don't expect too many classics either. - Not really a ton to keep you entertained for very long unless you have kids who love to play games that win tickets. Even if you enjoy shooting, racing, and claw games, you might get about 20 minutes of entertainment out of the place.
