Fun night it was a nice drive in! We watched Jurassic Park, they’re currently showing all older movies during covid. Recommend bringing dinner to eat in the car. Would definitely go back!

18 Hole Miniature Golf Course And Ice Cream
Reviewed By 305wendym
We have been going here for many years, and we still love it now that our kids are teens! Pros...price, course, cleanliness, friendly staff, deck (you can bring your own food for lunch or dinner), and ice cream! They have the best shakes! Great venue to take the kids and their friends! Parking is ample and free, and you don’t need to break the bank to play....$2.00 per person for a second round! We haven’t tried the batting cages but enjoy watching, and looks like fun. Could easily make an afternoon or evening out of this venue with a pizza delivery. Cons...not many...have to get in the car to get here. Just a few miles from the beach!

Cinemagic is a stone's long throw from my place, and I finally went to see a film there (I blame Netflix and Amazon Prime). There's nothing like seeing a film, especially one with great cinematography, in a real theater, though, and the IMAX theater at Cinemagic is fantastic. It's a big theater with a huge screen, very comfortable recliner seats that feel more like lounge chairs, and lots of space between aisles so you don't have to worry about the person in front of you reclining into your lap. Reasonable prices for tickets, especially if you buy them in person instead of online. The popcorn prices are ridiculous, however -- a small popcorn is almost the price of the theater ticket. It's only POPCORN. Other than that, the IMAX theater can't be beat. AND, there's an adjoining Otto Pizza restaurant and bar.
