From the reviews
So far, we've had 4 community charity events in the Boutique. It's private, it's beautiful, it's amazing. The food is wonderful, the staff is helpful and the place is perfect for any special event. Thurman, the event coordinator, was amazing. He went out of his way to assist us and made sure we were well taken of.
One of the only bowling alleys and mini golf locations in the area. It is very convenient to have them located together, with additional arcade games and a prize area. Idle Hours can be very busy on the weekends, so plan accordingly or be ready for a little bit of a wait.
A nice bowling alley Arcade Golf, they got this full retro experience, with 80's music and design, can't say bad on any of the staff, they are very accommodating, and friendly 5 stars for Cleanliness, foods,and safety.
Great place. The parking is very easy after a really sharp turn from the main road. We were surprised it took so long to find it. We started with indoor mini golf, which was fun. It was made all the better due to the air conditioning and roof over our heads. It was raining and oogey hot outside.
