    The miniature golf course.
    Patrick B.

    A good place to spend a lot of money. We like to feature Pacific Paradise on your YouTube vlog, Braaescapades. One of the good things about this place is that they are open year-round. We've visited a couple of times now and they usually only have one or two staff members working so if the place is busy, you can't get very good service. I stood around at the snack bar waiting for about ten minutes before just giving up altogether. The games are typical but well maintained. Only a few games were down while we were there, but the focus is on obtaining tickets or winning prizes. I miss the good ole' arcades where you could just dump quarters into video games and when you left, you had a sense of accomplishment because you finally beat that game you'd been playing for months. I'm not interested in the inflated trinkets that you can literally buy for pennies elsewhere but need to drop $100 to try and collect enough tickets to trade for here. I get it though, the little kids think it's cool. Every time we've visited, it has been in winter, so we haven't been able to enjoy the mini golf course or the bumper boats. I saw advertisements for go-karts but I didn't see the track here so that may be someplace else. They have an attraction where you purchase a bag of dirt. The prices range from $10 to $65!!! and then your kid takes the dirt and dumps it into a basket that they then put in running water and voila! ROCKS! I guess for rockhound types, this is exciting, but I don't feel like you actually get your money's worth with this tourist trap. Not like you're going to find a diamond or some real gold or anything. If you are staying in Ocean Shores and looking for some interactive entertainment, Pacific Paradise can fill that void for a few hours. Most of the games take a prepaid card that you can purchase on site. Some still take cash but don't get too caught up in the games where you can win a toy or a jackpot of tickets because they are rigged in favor of the house, and you will have lighter pockets faster than you can blink. Cheers.

    This place was the highlight of our weekend trip to ocean shores. So much fun for the kids ! Plenty of options for games to play and to win prizes. My kids loved the claw machine play til you win with the little squishy cat things. Classics like basketball, air hockey and ski- ball were a hit too! The place is well kept and clean. We would be sure to come visit again and spend another $60 in 30 minutes having a lot of fun.

    Cutest mini golf set up!

    Week 38/52 in my endeavor to try one new local spot (to me) per week! I wouldn't call myself a mini golf connoisseur... But this place hasss to be one of the best in Washington, hands DOWN. I've been to Ocean Shores so many times and Pacific Paradise is kind of tucked away down a side street, so I had NO idea it existed! After chatting with one of the employees, he informed us they'd actually been in town for about 25 years, but the place got a huge facelift/renovation in 2019. And it definitely shows! It still seems BRAND spanking new. There's a large arcade with tons of different games. And of course, a solid prize selection for after you're done racking up those tickets! There's also some sort of lazer tag/lazer maze, but we didn't look into that. Outside, there are bumper boats in a good sized body of water, set next to two 18-hole mini golf courses. For $10 a person you can do one course, or for $13, you can do both. Definitely a deal, and WORTH the price. We went with doing both courses, as that's the only reason why we came (to mini golf!) The courses were SO well-kept, decorated nicely, and were a ton of fun. At every other hole, there are wooden boards with facts about Ocean Shores and other local elements, which I thought was such a cute way to integrate some education. They also had a deal for $25 per person that got you entrance into one of the golf courses, bumper boats, and $10 worth of arcade credit. SUCH A STEAL. Another bonus - they serve beer and seltzers! They have small snacks and other refreshments as well, but nothing substantial so don't expect to eat a full meal here. Definitely has to be one of the most fun things to do in Ocean Shores. It's great family fun but also great to come with friends or a date!

    View from the condo!

    My MIL has a condo overlooking the golf course... so we have been watching this place change and grow for years. We FINALLY decided to try it out and it was totally worth it (we came 3 times in one week!) Prices are great, you can play 18 for $10 or 36 for $13! The vibe is relaxed and fun (they do not seem super strict on the food and bevvie policy on the course which is nice for adults if ya know what I'm sayin'...), they offer two separate courses (we played both... one more technical and one more props), and they are ALWAYS busy! We watched groups playing until 10:30 PM (yes they have lights for the night time putt putters!) Beside this, they offer bumper boats, a snack bar and a SWEET arcade! OS seems to be coming up and this is a great option for kids, no matter what age, and adults. If you need a reprieve from the beach I would recommend spending an hour or so playing a round at Pacific Paradise :)

    Bumper boats

    Very nicely designed arcade space with bumper boats and mini golf. We did the bumper boats, mini golf, panning for rocks, and some game play. The outdoor space is really nice, and there are even some picnic tables to take a snack break. The only down side is that most of the games seemed to glitch. The games would sometimes take double points but give 1/2 the tickets. It was really disappointing to my son. Overall a great place for fun, but ideally they will fix the arcade games.

    The mini golf is fun! I aced the last one. The water karts are super fun in a large group. The laser room is great! All the games are fun!

    Birthday party

    We held our granddaughter's birthday here with 10 friends. It was a perfect way to celebrate with mini golf, water bumper boats, arcade games and a lazer room. It's decorated for the fall season adding to the fun. Mike the GM was fantastic to set up 2 tables for the party, check to make sure we didn't need anything and ensure a good time was happening. I recommend holding your next party here, be it birthday or bridal (happening at the same time). Our 2 hours extended into 3 with all participants planning their next visit here. Thank you Mike and staff!

    We wanted a fun activity to do on a warm Thursday night and we were not disappointed. Thursday's are halal price so it was an affordable option for a large family group. There are two courses for 36 holes of mini golf fun. After mini golf the video games in the arcade will keep the kids busy. The mini golf coursed are clean, layers out nicely, and challenging for all. Along course 1 you can look for Sasquatch who is "hiding" all along the course. Great fun for the whole family!

    My son got the safari set and gun set.  LEGO was from Ross lol

    Haven't been back to the shore in over a year and was surprised about the new remodel of the arcade. My mother in law, my 4 year old and myself each got our own cards.. spent about $95 ‍ but anyway, games were fun. They were worth anywhere from 6-10 maybe even 16 points per game...they use point cards so keep that in mind when you're buying points. Also machines don't dispense tickets, it goes into your card and they scan after you're done. We walked out with close to 4,000 "tickets" and my son was able to get some good toys. We will def come back and get the 500 points for $50 lol

    I love mini golf there. What's better is that they have $3 mini golf and $3 beers on Thursday (June-September) from 6 to 8.

Thought I'd drop in & try it again at Rainier Lanes and really enjoyed it, probably start bowling again just for the fun of it. Place had kind of a funny vibe to it being a stranger to the place now, from the parking lot to entering, the inside just seemed narrow & cramped, even the restrooms, but still enjoyed getting out of the house & doing something a little physical for entertainment. Only real irritation was no one was really following proper bowling etiquette of not standing or getting up to the approach while someone is bowling in the lanes next to you, we used to always wait, eye check the others waiting to see who goes ahead while the other steps back until it is their turn, but then that is what you learn playing league I guess. But I encourage everyone to consider bowling as another option of entertainment, it's as social as you want to make it or something for your own activity...

    I just got home from my first experience with Great Wolf Lodge and overall I had a great time!…read more My cousin invited me to stay with her and her daughters as well as her daughters friends at Great Wolf Lodge for her youngest daughters birthday. I'd never been and figured why not as I could use a little getaway. This stay was not without it's issues as there were some things that happened early into our experience that were less than ideal. My family got to Great Wolf Lodge a couple hours before I did as I had to work a bit later than her and when I arrived i heard about a situation that happened in the water park...my cousin instructed her oldest daughter to watch after her little sister and her little sister's two friends who came with them but unfortunately her teenage daughter wasn't paying attention to them quite as well as she was supposed to and the younger girls walked off and after they did, they were looking for my cousin but had a difficult time locating her and my cousin's oldest daughter who was supposed to be watching them while my cousin went to take care of a matter...anyhow, the girls started crying because they couldn't find them but my cousin returned to the water park area just a few moments later and was met with a hostile security guard who had the young girls crying even more as he was yelling at my cousin berating her for not being there watching the kids and she calmly tried to explain that her teenage daughter was supposed to be with them but he just continued with a rant about how they're going to call the police on her and saying that he shouldn't be responsible for having to watch her children when he dosen't even like kids. (Side note: If that's how he feels he should definitely find another job, this family friendly environment clearly is not for this man).. anyhow, while i can understand where he is coming from about no one watching the children for that short time, it was a whole unnecessary and embarrassing experience for my family. Shortly after I arrived and set my stuff down and got my bathing suit on, I ended up meeting up with my cousin's oldest daughter who was just outside of the Waterpark area at the time and she wanted to go back to our room for a bit so we tried the elevator but the elevators in this place are extremely slow so instead we decided to take the stairs to get to the room. On the second floor of the stairwell, there was a man standing in a corner staring at us as we walked by, a few seconds later I turned my head to look back at him and he was still staring at us and smiling in a very unsettling way. Mind you, I was in a bathing suit and she is a very attractive teenage girl wearing a bikini so we knew he was being a creeper. We ended up just taking the elevator downstairs and reported him to the front desk. They couldn't really do much as he didn't say anything to us or try to follow us but they assured us that they would keep an eye on him through video surveillance and would take action if he was making other women and girls uncomfortable. We stayed another night as we didn't want this to be her daughters whole great wolf lodge experience for the youngest daughters birthday and we ended up with a much better experience yesterday as a very sweet employee by the name of Darlene took the time to listen to my cousin about the awful experience with the security guard in the water park and she really made our day! Darlene demonstrated amazing customer service by being present, fully listening to our concerns and showing compassion by offering the girls some birthday pins and getting us set up with the breakfast buffet. We had a nice breakfast and spent some quality family time in the Waterpark as well as the arcade yesterday without any disturbances! We also did the mirror maze and joined in on the family dance party which were fun experiences for the girls. I loved the wave pool as well as the howling tornado in the Waterpark and would like to come back to experience that again! It's definitely no amusement park and it's an overpriced place to stay for what it is but it would still be good place to go with family for one night every now and then...especially if they keep employees like Darlene around !
