The open spaces to roam are essential for us, and we felt good about him being on the playground side. The staff was really nice on the way in and was occasionally walking the grounds, picking up, checking in, etc. Improvements needed: the hands-on toy section needs a redo. At one point, I'd say it was in excellent quality...but it's clear wear and tear and no investment have led to some of the tiny rooms leaving little to the imagination, with most stuff scattered about with no structure (and existing toys worn out). Kids can make the most of a lot, but this needs a refresh. Side note...the furniture has some sharp points too...if budget can't permit replacing with things with smoother edges, then at least put some covers on the corners. We didn't feel good about that section and tried to block and cover it. That, or gate it. All aside, we are grateful for all the little spots like these that give variety to our kiddo with special needs.

This place was absolutely worth the drive from our town…read more Usually I hate these kinds of places because of kid germs and the mass spread but this place was very clean. I believe every thirty minutes they were cleaning and sanitizing. I loved that they had spots for adults to sit and watch their kids. The staff were very kind and helpful. The 3 years old loved this place. I only wish it was bigger

I was here recently as a guest of a corporate event, and I was pleased. The staff is, in a word,…read moreefficient. And I mean that as a compliment. From what I understand, this event required very little planning on the side of the corporation. The staff took over and absolutely made it work. The buffet was above standard. I'm not talking "omg bistro gourmet fantastic," BUT...I had the pot roast AND the salmon lol. And yum to both. The space itself is probably very close to your mental image of a country club. Classic to the point of almost being chic again. I can't speak to general membership here, but if you're hosting an event, go for it. Very little effort on your end with delightful results. There was lots of praise among fellow guests.

There's a sign that you can't spend more than 5 minutes in the clubhouse at the turn. Meanwhile there's 1 person making sandwiches/ serving 6-7 people at a time. If you go, bring snacks. By comparison, the rangers at Avalon up the road are always coming around offering water and cold wet towels. Completely different experience. Like I said, great course but they can work on a few things.

The older highschool kids told my boys to get off the basketball court or they would all put them off of it, I heard the F bomb screamed several times as loud as anyone could scream it. I saw kids pushing and shoving other kids. Kids tore down the tape to the closed off toddler area and was running around in the tunnels etc. And there were no staff around on the floor. One small child came up to me and told me some kids took there ball and all I could tell them was to let there parents know and maybe they could find an employee to let them know. This place definitely is going to be bad news if they don't put a stop to kids acting this way. We will be finding somewhere else to enjoy won't be back here. I will say the fella at the front desk where we paid was very friendly and helpful however the place definitely needs more staff enforcing rules on the floor or at least tonight they did

Moved here from Colorado and wanted a fun option for my family. We were seriously considering the…read morepurchase of a boat but came across this boat club while searching for boat marinas and boats for sale. When i started doing the math, it was a no brainer simply based on membership cost vs. buying and upkeep, also the fact I didn't want the hassle of boat maintenance and storage if i could avoid it. We are now members and have enjoyed every family moment making new memories. I(we) love just showing up and having the boat ready to go and then returning the boat...walking back to the car without having to do anything work related and off to enjoy the rest of our day. The reservation is easy to make using an app if you so chose. Another cost saver is that they provide all the toys and ski jackets. I really hope they open a location at Norris lake which has been talked about.

"The fastest show on Dirt"! And this is the first race of the season this Memorial Day Weekend…read moresince last November. Hope folks still remember how to drive. When your weekend is looking like another stay at home ordinance, thus was a fun little unplanned diversion on our 520 mile trek to Atlanta. Big Mike coming over the broken PA and loud cars speeding around the dirt. Heck who knew anything like this would happen. I guess this is phase 1 or 2 of the patchwork-reopening. People are still practicing social distancing but just barely. However, I did notice that you could serve your own condiments at the concession stand. We arrived 2 hours early at 5pm but things didn't get started until after 7pm. We had a couple of cheese burgers and chicken tenders with two waters for $14. Not bad. $10pp to park and entrance fee to the speedway. This is 3/8 oval dirt track. They have bleachers but many folks brought their own chairs. We travel with ours everywhere so we did the same. Next to the wooden bleachers is grass and people were perched there as well. The track is watered down to prevent dustbowls. You should bring ear protection. We didn't this time although we could have purchased earplugs for $1 each. There were 8 different divisions with 4 cylinder to 8 cylinder and AWD and FWD cars. After sitting on a lawnmower for 3 hours I probably was half deaf anyway so the noise really didn't bother me as much, but Nicole and the little one didn't make it past the "hot laps", the introductory practice laps, which was fine by me since we'd been waiting for more than 2 hours and still had another 2.5 hours to drive to Atlanta.

It has been improved but still needs more improvements. Location; take exit 60 off Interstate 75 and go west for about 4 miles and you will see a sign on the left. You will come up on a V where you decide to either go to the right for the grand stands or go to the left for the pits or tail gate parking. I of course chose to go to the left. The concession stand in the tier parking area was fast and friendly. I used my pick up and parked in the tier parking area. Just back your truck up and pull down the tail gate to watch the race. You can see most of the track from the so called "tier parking" which is what I call pick up truck or tail gate parking. One thing they need is a bathroom facility complete with water and a sink to wash your hands and etc. I saw only one portable stall to go to the bath room on the tier parking area. The dirt track racing was very entertaining and I would come back again. John Ownbey won the late model race on a Friday night while a Chevroltet Performance sponsored event. So this was a big race with lots of cars here tonight.

A very neat piece of Oak Ridge history. Oak Ridge,…read moreTennessee, was established during World War II as part of the Manhattan Project, a top-secret U.S. government program to develop atomic weapons. It was officially founded in 1942. At its peak during the war, Oak Ridge's population swelled to around 75,000 people. This remarkable growth was driven by the need for a large workforce to support the development of atomic weapons, particularly the uranium enrichment process taking place at the Oak Ridge facilities. The city was shrouded in secrecy during its early years, with its existence not widely known to the public. It played a critical role in the development of the atomic bomb, including the uranium enrichment work carried out at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. There were restaurants, stores, food halls, and recreational structures built to support the city. This pool was one of those structures. This is a historic pool. It was originally constructed in 1944 by the Corps of Engineers and underwent major renovation in 1992-1993. It was reopened in the summer of 1994. The pool is spring water-fed and considered one of the largest in the nation with depths ranging from zero to 13-1/2 feet. It is located between Providence Road and Highland Avenue. It was not open when I stopped by but there is a plaque that describes it's history. It is a massive pool and easy to see from the parking lot. Their website states that it, "...is in need of major repairs as it is leaking large amounts of water each day and does not meet current code requirements. The City has selected a consulting firm to facilitate a planning process and gather data on existing conditions as well as collect community input to determine next steps for the pool."

This facility has a roomy kiddie pool with a mushroom shaped shower for the young ones to frolic through and more fountains as you enter the main pool area that cascade as you walk into the sloping beach-like larger kid area ( about 2 ft deep before reaching the buoy line barrier). As you pass the buoy barrier the decline in the pool continues to approximately 4ft before reaching the dock area; which always have 2 lifeguards constantly patrolling (and I do mean patrolling) for everyone's safety. You have a large grassy area to lie your towels down or set up a sport cover as long as it doesn't extend more that 10ft Sq. Multiple trash receptacles, that are constantly maintained and an ice cream station later in the afternoon. My family enjoys this establishment and will continue to do so.
