My kids wanted to try hitting in a batting cage and all the outdoor ones were closed for the season…read moreso I went online and did a search and found this gem. It was $40 for an hour to rent a lane and I chose to self pitch. You can have as many kids bat too. They do have the option of machine pitching but it would have been to fast for my kids. Since my kids were young, they did have child bats for them to use. Overall, if you wanted an indoor batting cage, this place is nice and its all about baseball and softball!

Whether it is renting out a lane to conduct batting practice or to participate in their scheduled training, the process was easy! Half hour in the cage was $30 and for an additional $10, you have it for the whole hour. Over Spring Break, they ran training, which was perfect and enjoyed by my son. Each day, it was no fail the question of..."can I go back tomorrow?" We will definitely be back. Enjoy!

It took us about 20 minutes to walk through all of the displays as there were a few cute photo ops. Once you get to the end, there are fire pits, a concession stand, and a stall to buy souvenir items. You can also purchase ice skating online for a separate fee. Staff looked miserable, probably because it was cold outside (I admit, I couldn't do it!). Kids seemed to enjoy it. Overall, it was just okay but for $10 ‍

Ok. This place on the weekend is overwhelmingly packed. I learned my lesson coming here for the…read morefirst time thinking it was like DBat that closed down. The parking was crazy. Came in here at 9:30am and we had to wait for someone to leave just to park. When entering there was two young boys working the front that was nice enough to help us. I told him it was our first time and he walked us over and showed us the cages and said we could go to one cage from one small window that was open and then another cage for another short time because all the cages were reserved. Disappointing experience but I appreciate the boys trying to make us get a little play time before we had to get kicked out. Not a fan of the token situation to use the machine. DBat had touch cards like Dave and Busters. And not a fan of the surcharge either. If another person makes a batting business closer to Clarksburg? Then this business probably won't be as busy as it is right now. My friend takes his son here for Classes and Dom loves it! I might try to come back when the weather gets better

I've been here pre-COVID enjoyed it; good pitching machines and the price is reasonable. I just…read morewent this past Sunday and again this evening. Unfortunately, I won't be going back again until we are post-COVID. It is a confined indoor space and on both days the person at the front desk was not wearing a mask and most of the other people using the batting cages also were not and there was no enforcement.

Along the Potomac River northwest of Georgetown is a close-knit community called The Palisades…read more This is its recreation center. There's a small parking lot in the front and trails that lead to an actual recreation center, fields and a playground that doubles as a splash park in the summer. My four-year-old daughter loved the playground. It's modeled after an Indigenous American village along the Potomac River with slides, etc. For being in a wealthy neighborhood, it's a little run down, but still a lot of fun. If you like quirky art, take the small dirt path to the right when facing the parking lot. Walk a few yards to a small opening in the forest to find the "Glass Forest" with art hanging on the trees. It's a little creepy, but also quirky!

Hmmm...I suppose I was assuming this playground would be more than it was given the area…read more The good: *a couple slides, things to climb on *dedicated parking lot *fitness equipment *skate park (definitely check this out) The issues: *the equipment is old and run down: pieces of the padded floor are all over the place and kids throw them *back to those kids and why we won't be back....where are the parents, nannies, guardians, SOME adult?! There were lots around but no one was telling their kid to not throw pieces of the ground at people. My son was excited about the slide....until he was trampled while going down it by 4 kids (at least 8 years old so they should know better anyways) running up the slide. This hasn't ever been an issue before since caretakers are usually at least sort of watching their kids but nope not here. Overall the equipment was boring and the playground way beyond capacity, particularly during these times. Not a fan, won't be back.

Stopped by here while traveling in DC since the crowds there can be overwhelming. It was a warm…read moreSaturday toward the end of March, but it was not crowded at all. We did a round of mini golf, which was nice. The course is mostly well maintained, though one of the holes near the end could use some work since it is a giant pit, with some cobblestone rocks acting as steps that lead down to the hole. It was a little difficult to maneuver, and I just ended up having to get one of my younger brothers to get my ball for me. Most of the holes were well down and the place had a nice grass and water feature aesthetic. Definitely something we wanted in the city. We then admired the obstacle course because it looked awesome. Climbing across surfboards dangling in the sky, bright colors. It looked awesome. We opted not to try it out this time though. We then went for a little walk on a trail. They aren't very well marked, the signs look like someone keeps knocking them down, and all of the trails sort of overlap and are visible from the others since it is literally just a little acre-ish area in the middle of the city. There was also an overflowing trash can that smelled awful, next to someone's abandoned lawn chair on the trail, but nothing a quick cleanup of the area can't fix. It is rather warm being down in a sort of gully, so I would love to see it again when all the trees are green, hopefully that would provide some nice shade. We then went to the playground and it was really nice and well-maintained, and I had to use the restroom which was IMMACULATE. This was by far the nicest playground bathroom I have ever been in, and nicer than most store and restaurant restrooms I have been in. There is also a waterpark that wasn't open yet for the season, and a large blue building that serves as the entrance to the water park, and I do wish that it had a large sign that said something to the effect of "Restrooms are in here, even when the waterpark isn't open" since we were trying to find a restroom for my 5 year old nephew after we had left the playground bathroom, and assumed that the swim building was closed, so we ran him across the parking lot to the obstacle course building assuming it would be in there, and were a little worried when we had to run him across the street when we learned it was in the blue swim building. Overall, this was a really lovely and completely unexpected outing in the middle of a crowded city. This will very likely be on our itinerary next time we have to kill time in DC.

I've always liked coming here. I come here for the batting cages, which are pretty good. I think…read morethere about 10 that throw different speeds. The fastest is either 60-65mph or 70-75; I don't think there's an 80-85 like a lot of places have. They have bats and helmets you can use. The helmets have a wire grillwork covering your face, and while I usually find this very distracting, for some reason I don't think it's so bad here. Of course, you're welcome to bring and use your own helmet and bat. You can get 3 tokens for $5, and each token gets you 14 pitches. In addition to the batting cage, they have an obstacle course that's like 3 stories tall that looks awesome. I haven't done it but it looks cool. They said it takes like 2 hours and it costs adults $50. There's also a pool here. Overall, it's a good place to have some fun.

Honestly we would have had just as good a time by the tables in the concession area that overlooks the ball park. Alcoholic drinks are free for beer or wine... anything you pay... as the bartender told us numerous times as a way to get tipped. So bring cash... so you can tip. We left 10 bucks on the first drink order and it wasn't enough for her to remember us even with no one else at the bar on a Tuesday night game lol. I don't know ... I looked up how much it was to get in and looked like 165. I'd say show up at the gates and get the 5 dollar ticket and spend the rest on drinks and alcohol before going into the diamond club. Service if any was nothing special to not good. Food was whatever. Seats pretty good ... if you like baseball

Our company recently completed a holiday lighting display for Laurel Golf Center and unfortunately…read moreour experience with the owner was absolutely terrible. Our company completed the work as agreed and invoiced the business, but the invoice was never paid. After multiple attempts to resolve the issue directly, we ultimately had to take additional measures to collect payment. For small services businesses, situations like this are extremely damaging. Contractors invest time, labor, equipment and materials with the expectations that the businesses will operate respectfully and honor their agreements. Laurel Golf Center is not one of those businesses. We strongly encourage other vendors and contractors to steer clear of doing business with Laurel Golf Center.

In April 2019, it was with a couple of friends, and I was relatively impressed with the course. While it's a fairly simple looking mini golf course, there are some challenges. The course is nicely maintained and better than a couple of other area courses I've been to. It's above average for the area, but not the best I've been to around here. I do consider myself lucky to have only 2.5 miles from home since 2020. In April 2023, there was a Meetup group meeting here. However, there was a transformer power outage in the area, and they had to close the course before we started. He rescheduled the Meetup for another Monday 5 weeks later in May 2023. The Meetup organizer is great at mini golf, but he was having an off day explaining all the various challenges this course has, and he says it always throws him off some. I enjoyed hearing his stories, but for me, I enjoyed the course and its challenges (well until I saw my high score...haha). Overall, this is a nice course and will return in the future.
