Bowlers Club is a great spot if you're into that old-school, no-frills bowling experience. The…read morewhole place has strong retro vibes, and it really feels like stepping back in time in the best way. One thing to know going in is that their open lane hours can be a bit particular, so it's definitely worth checking ahead before you go. It seems like they cater a lot to league play, which makes sense given the community feel. I see people online complain about their lack of availability and if you do a quick search or look at their signage, you can see they have very limited open lane hours. The space itself is surprisingly roomy, with plenty of seating, and I appreciated that people actually respect the rules. No food or outside shoes in the bowling area, and everyone seemed to follow that without issue. Open bowling prices are very cheap. Just be aware it's cash or check only, though there is an ATM on site. Again, just check the hours because as of this review they are only open for a few hours one day a week. One of my favorite little touches is that they print out your games at the end. It's simple, but it adds to that nostalgic feel. Overall, it's not a flashy place, but that's kind of the point. If I lived closer, I'd probably come here regularly just to practice. It's a solid, affordable, old-school bowling spot.

Wow, this place is RETRO and could stand some repairs/updating. Also, no food available on a…read moreSaturday night. That said - cheap and decent lanes. Lots of seating and tables. Didn't get very busy when we were there. They print out your games at the end. Cash or check AND they have an ATM. An entire star is for the music!

If I could give this place less than a star I would. It's dirty and disgusting and in need of a…read moreserious makeover. I honestly have a hard time imagining this place is possibly up to code. To start.... they are cash only. Kinda inconvenient to the customer. I left and found and ATM only because the kids were dying to skate. I asked about if there's any plans for merchant services in the future so I can return without having to pay an ATM fee. They acted insulted and told me absolutely not there is no need for it. I was a little confused cause of how inconvenient it was for me. The customer. The one who pays. But ok. Then we rent the skates and walk in. To say this place is falling apart is an understatement. The ceilings are falling down and appear to have black mold in ten corner. There were two buckets hanging from the ceiling to collect water from rainfall. Under the bucket the floor was a wet puddle and warped from it happening over time. All the paint is chipping. It smelled horrendous. Maybe some credit card scanners wouldn't kill you to allow more customers through the door to fix this place up. To say the least. We will NEVER return. I made that clear to the kiddos. Never.

When walking in, it's spacious, has a snack bar and lots of vending machines. You had me at snack bar. OK...you also had me at lots of parking. But, I'm a fan of snack bars that have grilled cheese and other delightful, unhealthy snacks that counterbalance a heavy workout on the ice. Anyway, there are a bunch of locker rooms. They're actually clean. There are paper towels, toilet paper in the bathroom stalls...and....wait for it....hot running water! Oh...and the "piece de la resistance"??? SOAP. It was like heaven. Now...the ice? It was awesome. So smooth, cold and dry almost immediately after the zamboni cleaned and prepped it for our game. I hope to play here again sometime soon.

There's a driveway that isn't for the park, then a small sign that says "parking second entrance," and the second entrance (I think?) is a walking path more than an entrance - since the "actual" parking area is dirt/stone. We drove the length of the walking path without encountering another car or person (thankfully!!!), but it's very narrow and winding. There IS a blue&yellow historical marker at the entrance to the parking area. Anyway.... The park itself is very small, but beautifully maintained, with plantings for every season, and LOTS of benches and places to sit, and truly stunning mountain views. There are also several fountains - I don't know if they're functional, because we went in early spring and it's not really fountain season quite yet, but if they are....how peaceful and lovely it must be when they're all running!! Can't wait to go back in summer to see it in full bloom, and fall for the Mum Festival - there were still lights in the huge evergreen, also! So they do that much for winter, if not more!

Their website lays out what you need to have to demonstrate you are a tourist. We weren't asked to show papers or anything, hey, this is chilled out Woodstock NY for God's sake! We used the putting green and had fun practicing our strokes. They don't have tee times so guests are asked to call in to see what times are good times for guests. First priority goes to members. The course is well taken care of and seems to have some challenging spots. It's mostly flat which is good for sight lines and for seeing your ball and the flags. They have plenty of golf carts. There is also a restaurant attached . Nice people work there.

This man should not be around kids and we will never go back there. He spent 5 minutes shouting (literally screaming) at me down the phone because I called up and asked about an expensive jacket I left there that had some shades in the pocket. I desperately needed it back as the winters here are very cold and expensive. He told me he lost it, so I wanted to go over and try to find it. He went completely nuts and totally lost his mind on the phone. How a man like this can work with kids, I do not know. I gave him two stars instead of one because I feel very sorry and sad for him.
