Took my kids mini-golfing here for the first time last week and everyone had fun. They cleaned the balls and golf clubs before they gave it to us, which was nice to see. Asked my kids what they wanted to do this weekend and they wanted to come back!! So its five stars from the whole family.

I went today on some last min and had a great time first thing my girl said was she not getting on any rides unless they clean them and that they did every time the go karts got off the track they were cleaned

I went there yesterday, I was helped by 2 of the sweetest and funniest girls! I Went around 7pm last night, it was a little busy but I had a good time playing mini golf, then doing go karts right after. Great customer service, the girls were very helpful and explained everything in detail. I will be back!

I dont really write reviews but my kids and I went there last night and had an amazing time!!! The staff is helpful, friendly, and went out of there way to make our night enjoyable. Especially, Andriana, Kelly, Abby, Eddie, and Zach Pedmore. Andriana, Kelly, and Abby was more than helpful and friendly at the payment booth. They pointed us in the right direction, answered all our questions and offered us things that the kids could do. When we got to the go karts, Eddie was also helpful and friendly. He also answered questions and went out of his way to help us. He even checked in with my family after go karting to see how we were. Finally at the zip line Zach Pedmore was also friendly and took the time and patience to make me and the kids feel safe when we were afraid to go on the zip line. He even stated that he loves this job and loves to see the kids have a good time. I was so pleased with everyone. I went around asking names to make this post. WE ARE DEFINITELY COMING BACK

Fantastic place for the family, ironically enough I used to work here (many moons ago) and I am nothing short of impressed with all of the additions they have done. I hope to reconnect with the owner and bring my family back when it gets a little warmer.

We called ahead to place a pick up order at their new restaurant set up under tents in the side parking lot. The wings were good but the baked beans were my favorite. Super friendly staff.

I was here 3 times & went Go Karting & i really enjoyed it. They also have fun batting cages where u can choose if u want slow pitches or fast. They also have indoor Go Karting which is muuuuch faster & more professional. I heard theres also Laser Tagging & would love 2 check it out 1 day since i love Laser Tagging. They also have many arcade games which r fun & worth playing.

Visited The Castle yesterday with the family to play mini golf. The employee at the register was wearing a mask and the clubs appeared to be freshly sanitized (they were still wet). For the most part, playing mini-golf was naturally socially distant. The family had a great time and enjoyed the experience.As someone who takes mini-golf somewhat seriously, I was extremely disappointed in the condition of the course. The greens were in terrible shape and many have visible mold. The matting of the greens is worn down smooth, so the golf balls continued to roll with very little resistance (kinda like playing golf on concrete floor). My family didnt seem to care, but I felt disappointed by the experience.

We had a great time! There were two go-kart tracks . One was a slick-track and the other was a regular one . We did both !

As an Orange County resident for the last 20 years, I found The Castle through my wifes family. From that moment I arrived in the early 2000s and enjoyed some of the activities, my family, and especially my children have grown up with The Castle as a staple of fun in our lives.From the classics like Mini Golf (in the Castle itself!) to Go-Carts, Laser Tag, Roller Rink and the Arcade, to the more recently added Zip-line, Slick Track Racing, Axe Throwing and a Midway of Amusement Park/Carnival rides, The Castle has never stopped investing in growing an in demand fun location.Food and drink, for adults and kids, as well as being able to host parties and corporate events. The Castle is THE LOCAL place for FUN in the HUDSON VALLEY!

Best mini golf in the tri-state area. Two unique courses, that offer a good challenge. Those cookie cutter mini golf courses you see everywhere? This isnt one of them. The go karts are pretty meh, but theyre the side attraction anyways.

It was good. Only the go karts and mini golf were open. But the staff was nice and everything was clean. Just wish the bumper cars were going.

The mini golf course is a little less than average but its fun and nice to do with family/friends

Review №14

The kids loved this place. I think the best time to go is weekend mornings when the rides and attractions are half price, and it is not crowded. The rides and attractions are not cheap. Except for the ball pit, where you get an all day bracelet (best economic option), all other attractions are pay per ride. There kids easily dont more than $100 in two hours. That being said, the things that were offered were really really enjoyed by the kids. There was a parents area with a bar, but it wasnt open when we were there.

I have been going to the Castle since I was a child and now take my own son too. They have evolved into a full-fledged entertainment center you could spend an entire day enjoying. Clean, high quality amusement, and relatively inexpensive!

This is a really fun arcade with AWESOME rides, a great arcade, and friendly workers! I went to this place when I went to summer camp. Specifically Teenventure Camp 2019. Questions = Specific answers! When you get a little view of this place, youll be having LOTS of fun here! :D

Review №21

This place is amazing. Its a little bit of everything! And just enough to satisfy all ages for a fun afternoon or evening with the family. The mini golf takes you thru an actual castle with falls, black light dungeon, and a castle to put into at end for a dragon show if you make the Hole in One! Zip line is a nice little rush, the arcade is way bigger than we imagined with new clean games and my daughter had a blast. Staff is old school local kids who care enough to make it fun. New paint was being put on the Dragon. Come support your local fun center!

Review №27

Kids had a great time on the go karts... they have three different tracks, including one for little kids. Very short lines or no lines.. we had a great time. However for lunch, beware no outside food is allowed in the park. Since we keep kosher and they dont sell kosher food, we were told we cannot eat in the park the food we brought along... I wish they will change this rule, since they have many people who eat only kosher come to the park... Overall we had a great time.

Some days (Sundays) it can get too crowded. More supervision in the go-kart area needed for sure - I think the height requirement should be higher. Other than that, a very nice place, well run and the roller rink is awesome!

Review №33

It was so fun , I went with my school and there was lazer tag, a war zone, lazer maze, go carts and other amazing rides and it was worth the drive. Even though I dont have kids I still totally recomend you bring kids here if they need to burn of some steam.

This place is huge. It is clean, well maintained, and adequately staffed. We had a blast at a birthday party, but watch out because the cost of a visit will escalate quickly.

My grandsons celebrated their birthday in the castle with their friends. They all claim they had I a lot of fun because there is a lot of games and activities you can play They also had pizza and cake. They all rated the castle 5 stars.

Two tracks for go-karts (one slippery for drifting!), mini golf, video arcade, roller rink, ball pit, roller coaster for kids and other rides indoors and outdoors. Restaurant and bar, though the ordering is somewhat confusing. Decent prices overall.

We had a lot of fun. We went roller skating with our cheer squad. The only disappointment was they didnt have anyone out on the floor assisting people to get up and helping to control the flow of traffic. Skates are older but decent shape. Girls cant wait to go back!

Review №47

The castle is fun, but its run by kids/teens who sometimes give good customer service. Most of them are just standing around looking miserable and talking amongst themselves. They should rethink the adult/teen employment ratio because that could be there downfall.

When here as a kid and loved it and it has only gotten better, some updates have made this place greater then what it used to be for me and for others who also enjoyed this place :), I highly recommend parents taking their kids here for a family fun day and also this place is great for much bigger events, just call them and get more information, I know they offer deals and do parties here as well, I hope this review helped.

The Castle is a ton of fun! The new zip line is insane! They have a great indoor section with laser tag, a laser maze, rock climbing and an arcade. Out side they have mini golf, go carts, and several rides. Good time with the family, but better when the weather is nice.

Had my sons 7th birthday here. We ordered the mini golf package with glow room. Kids had a blast in glow room and though we got rained out of mini golf barely into the 5th hole, the castle fin center was very accommodating and allowed us another indoor activity. Sam was our party hostess and she was beyond awesome!!! Def worth it

Castle Fun Ctr. has a wide variety of video games that will keep kids busy for hours. There is a mini golf course, go karts, a zip line and other things that can also occupy adults. It is well worth a visit when you are in the neighborhood.

Review №68

Since Ive moved up to Orange County, my family has well enjoyed this establishment. There are so many things to do. Entrance is free but rides and activities are a nominal fee.This place is not just for kids. Teens and adults can spend time chillin or playing. Love the fact that theres a roller skating rink. The addition of the bumper cars, Zipline and other outdoor activities was a good touch. Arcade bowling and more are indoors, so the place can be enjoyed even on rainy days.We did one birthday party for my son when he was 11 and was very pleased with the service, host, pkg choices and food.One thing that could be better, is the overall safety issue. Child safety is just a personal thing of mine. What Im talking about is the way Chucky cheese has someone at the door ensuring that the child leaving is with the adult they came with (so to speak). I guess since this place is not just for kids they expect the parents to be responsible..., and, I guess they should .Btw, did I mention that the wings are good. Oh and cake in pic was from Walmart not the Castle. That was a win too!

I have been there many times when my son was younger it was really nice to have such a fun place to take the kids after school or in the summer. He especially loved the little race cars and a couple times I had his birthday party there and hes gone there for other peoples birthday parties. I would recommend it to anybody who had kids they would really enjoy it.

Review №76

Probably wont return. Most of the staff were friendly. One got an attitude though and that ruined the entire experience for me. Was there maybe half an hour with friends before we all went to throw axes and the tiny girl that was doing it got an attitude. So I didnt spend any more money the rest of the time there and we left very shortly after and headed over to Round One in Middletown instead with our group of 12 people. Had a much better time at the Round One arcade.

Its been a staple for all of us who live here locally. Weve all been to this place more than once. Weve seen it grow to become something more. But in the meantime, be cautious of the blue course. It hasnt been renovated since Nixon was in office. I see theyre working on Green. So heres hoping next year will bring a much better competition between me and my wife
