Been to this location maybe once or twice in the past 3 years so decided to visit again…read more I believe the location had a refresh since i last visited -- the system seems like had an upgrade! More user friendly and just better user experience and modern overall! The place is nice and clean, has a bar/restaurant for food or alcohol for purchase if you'd like. Otherwise, they have a bottle refill station with cups for free. Came on a Thursday night around 9pm(?)ish and the whole place is lit like a library. I mean it's nice and safe, but would be nice if it's some colors and moodlight than those bright white light. Made the reservation online which was pretty easy but didn't the $5.50 convenience fee which was about 20% of the reservation fee for like an hour bowl. then another $12 for two pairs of shoes rental making an hour bowl nearly $45..

Our team had a great time at Picklewood Paddle Club! From the moment we arrived, the staff was…read moreattentive, friendly, and helpful, which made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. The instructor was a lot of fun and did a great job keeping everyone engaged. You could tell that people throughout the facility were having a great time, which created a really fun and energetic atmosphere. There are plenty of courts, both indoor and outdoor, and the ability to reserve courts is a huge plus--especially if you're planning something with a group. The option to host parties and group events also makes this a great spot for team outings. Add in plenty of options for food and drinks, and you really don't have to go anywhere else once you're there. Everything was very clean and well maintained, and the overall setup makes it easy to spend a few hours playing, hanging out, eating, and having fun. Highly recommend Picklewood for a casual game of pickleball, a fun night out, or any type of team-building or group event. Our team had a blast and would definitely come back!

Picklewood is every pickleballer's dreamland. The interior is retro and brightly colored red,…read morewhite, and green, giving off pro club vibes. Their slogan is "Serving Up Good Times" and they have a cute groundhog logo. Courts are $40-$80 per hour depending on time and day and so they're definitely on the pricier side as far as court rentals go. There are seating areas so you and your friends can easily rotate in and out. Compared to Side Out Tsunami in Rainier, prices are higher and more catered toward large group parties and events. Tsunami is more competitive and industrial versus Picklewood is more casual play and fancy, complete with a bar and full restaurant. Picklewood has Happy Hour deals that you don't want to miss out on (including weekend) and so you can get discounted appetizers during certain hours. My boyfriend got half-off Buffalo wings that he enjoyed, but they were quite messy and required more napkins than just the cloth napkin they give you. Drinks are full-priced during Happy Hour, but they have some good choices like frozen espresso martinis. Bring your own paddles or rent some casual play ones from the front. They sell branded merch, including Lululemon merch. Bathrooms are clean, but be careful when opening the stall doors because the walkway is narrow and the doors swing outwards. Picklewood has their own convenient parking lot, but fair warning that the spaces are very compact and so anything bigger than a small SUV is going to be a tight squeeze. The staff is friendly and prompt to serve. My only complaint is that the music can be loud so it's hard to hear score and calls, much less have a conversation with the person next to you.

Skyway Park Bowl recently hosted my party of 30+ bowlers and we had a great time! Shoutout to Robin…read moreand Kevin for taking care of us. We had a huge party that wanted to bowl and so we called and reserved some lanes weeks in advance. They got us a decent price - prepaying for two games, and also had a food buffet option, which was delicious. I'm not sure what the average price for bowling is nowadays but we paid $12/person for two games and shoes, and $14/person for the buffet. The bowling machinery worked well for the most part. Although it's design is a bit outdated, everything worked perfectly and we never had to bother the staff to fix any lanes. The food was pretty good, we went for some Chinese comfort foods which you can never go wrong with. The only reason I'm not giving this a 5 star review is due to having an extremely rude encounter with one of the workers at the bar. I was requesting to order more food, and at this time I didn't realize it was an unlimited buffet, I thought we had just ordered a la carte, and so when I asked to order more, the worker continually made me feel stupid by giving me condescending questions on why I was trying to pay. If she simply explained to me that we had an unlimited buffet (which no one explained to me) and that I didn't need to pay, that would've been the end of it. But she had to patronize me and gave me a glare on top of it. Really wish this encounter didn't have to go this way. Overall, I'm happy with the service we got at Skyway Bowl from Robin, Kevin and the team. This is a solid, old school spot for bowling that gets the job done.

West Seattle is a cool, no frills muni course with amazing views of the city, tree lined fairways with a challenging yet forgiving layout.

What unbelievable potential this place has. The course is an awesome layout.

The club house is pretty dated, but if they remodeled (like they did at Jefferson) and add a Range/practice area this would be one of the best clubs in the area... for sure! On the downside, Homelessness encampments on the drive in are not exactly welcoming. Clean that area up and add a range there.

This is a great hidden gem in Seattle…read more -------- Highlights: Super well-maintained courts, great lighting, awesome indoor climate, generous court time near closing Disappointments: Customer service is unstructured, rates are hard to read and unclear, no tennis balls provided for play -------- Parking is abundant and easy, so it makes being here stress-free from the start. The front entrance is wide and easy to spot thanks to the large blue banner out front. Inside, there's usually two receptionists, but the process felt a little unstructured. Pricing is hard to read in person and you'll have to ask what to do and when to pay. The courts are pretty top notch here. They extremely clean and cared for. You can rent single or double courts, with pricing based on group size. There are curtain dividers for privacy and to keep the balls from drifting between courts when you play. A major plus is their flexibility near closing. We booked a one-hour session, but ended up playing about 90 minutes since the prior group finished early and the light stayed on past 9:15. They don't provide tennis balls, so make sure bring your own. This is a solid choice for reliable indoor tennis if you are in the area.

This laid-back par 3 course is right by the lake with a nice view, beginner-friendly holes, and yes, beer. Real beer. On-site. No need to sneak a Rainier in! Before you even tee off, you can warm up on the putt-putt practice area, and if you're waiting for your turn or just vibing with the scenery, there are plenty of spots to kick back, soak up the sun, and chat it up with your fellow players. The course is short, sweet, and refreshingly unpretentious. It's perfect for first-timers, rusty returners, or anyone who thinks golf should come with laughter and lake breezes. The staff is friendly, the pace is relaxed, and the whole experience feels like summer in a nutshell. You can do two rounds and pay an extra $6 for two rounds.

Adding a response to the owner's comment: The first THREE…read moretee boxes are NOT in the same position they used to be AND regardless, they are not even angled towards the holes, anyone can see this. The first has been moved by a LOT & the 2nd by multiple feet to the left (impeding left handed teeing), and then the third also slightly to the left. The 9th tee box has also been moved by multiple feet to the left, towards the fence line, seemingly prioritizing a cart path for the owner's work cart. The current owner may not have played at the old pitch & putt enough to realize these changes are in fact CHANGES, but they should be able to open their eyes and realize their new maintenance crew isn't lining up the box to the hole. Also, anyone with eyeballs can see where the old tee boxes were, compared to where they are now. Stop trying to gaslight me. The placement of the rubber tee being on either side of center hole in the mat is NOT standard. Why is there a center hole if it's not going to be able to be used? At the driving range the center hole is used too....I have a relatively narrow stance & straight hips - I feel sorry for anyone that doesn't, because they're going to be falling off the mat. Nice job blaming your problems on the previous owners. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This 3 par golf "course" has new ownership as of 2025 (due to some incompetent person at the city). The course condition was atrocious & it's only May. The first three tee "boxes" are not even slanted towards the holes. The person who positioned these tee boxes must not even play golf. On hole two a left hander wouldn't even be able to tee off without immediately hitting into the trees that line the edge of the golf course. These "new" tee boxes are literally just mounds of uneven dirt with a slab of fake grass NAILED down on the 4 corners. These mounds are not level & they don't seem to have pounded crushed rock beneath the surface, so I can't imagine them not washing away every winter. The nails that held down the tee box are 8" long and on one hole the nail had come out of the ground and was sticking up for anyone to severely impale themselves on it. The rubber tees that are used with the mats are put on either the left or right, not in the center hole?! Again, whoever put this set up together must not play golf. You are practically standing on the very tip of/ edge of the mat when teeing off, instead of being able to center yourself because they positioned the rubber tees incorrectly. Anyone that is larger or has a wider stance, or more curvy hips will have a problem. The greens....OMG. WTF happened?! They look horrific & are in REALLY bad shape. The worst greens I've ever seen, anywhere, even comparing to miniature golf courses. It's an embarrassment. Before you play they make you sign a waiver releasing liability for their negligence - luckily these sorts of waivers often don't hold up in court when/if someone gets hurt by their negligence. Watch out for those 8" metal NAILS on every tee box. The pricing went up. The person who took our money is in no way shape or form a part of the maintenance squad and had no clue what I was talking about when I first explained my complaints. Don't you want someone who knows about golf to take the money & be able to fix things like loose 8" nails??! Why oh why did the city change ownership??

This location is at a busy intersection and there's a lot going on in the area which adds to the character.

We listened and even danced a bit. They were pretty good and I knew most of the songs played. Axe Kickers is a fun venue with a lot of spirit and would make for a fun evening out.
