A friend surprised me for my birthday by taking me here! It was both of ours first time to play paintball. We were a little nervous at first because it was mainly young men there but everyone, and I do mean everyone, were super supportive and friendly. They were totally judgment free and offered tips, advice and one group even offered for us to join their match. A very welcoming atmosphere! We had zero issues with any of the equipment rented to us and they clearly explained everything and the safety rules. We will definitely be back!!
It was my first time playing paintball and I had a great time. Staff are helpful and friendly and the rules are simple to understand. Feeling like an investment in this place would be a great idea, personally.
Dont be scared of the outside- maybe a little shady looking at first glance. We thought we were in the wrong place at first. :-)We played for 3 hours with both kids and adults and had a great time. We chose how we wanted our teams to be each time. The refs and staff were great. Very safety conscious. All the equipment was of good quality. We had no jammed guns or busted paintballs.There were 2 other groups playing and but no long wait times. We bought 2 extra cases of paint so it was a little bit of an expensive day but that was our choice. Admission was very reasonable.
Came for a bachelor party. It was a great time for all the guys. Definitely will come back.
Reasonably priced, friendly staff, rentals available
Great family experience! The guys were super helpful with all the kids and EXTREMELY knowledgeable! Will definitely be going back!
Great ppl fun times to be had
Awesome place with great ppl!!
It was great. Spencer was very helpful. We had a party of 8 and it was the first for 7 of us.
The kids had a blast here. The staff is very fun and professional.
The kids and adults had a blast running around the field. The staff was friendly and helpful all evening.
We have so much fun every time we come visit! We wish we can get more paintballs for the $$ we spend, though.
I cant recommend this field enough,its an amazing Indore field thats great for beginners and veterans of the sport alike. Not to mention the fact that they change the field layout every other week.
Staff was good and helped me when I needed it
The staff are really great and friendly
AWESOME PLACE! 5 stars all the way!
It was a fun day gathering with friends for a quick game of pb
A little shady feeling but it was a lot of fun!!! Staff was nice.
ICU paintball is hands down the best full service paintball shop I have ever been to. They have their own field on hand, a wide range of accessories and equipment a genuinely knowledgeable team that wants to help you find the right paint marker for you not just the most expensive one. Anytime I need something paintball related ICU is the only place I go (without fail) strongly recommend you visit.
I get all my paintball guns fixed here. He is affordable, gets them done very quickly and owns the business, which means your not only supporting a local business but your business is his priority. I was born and raised in dsm and love to support quality local business. Its also an indoor paintball arena which means something fun to do during our very boring winters.
Honestly Ive been going here for 2 years and I wouldnt go anywhere else Pat is awesome Todd is too especially if you catch him in a really good mood. Ive gotten all my gear here and not really had any problems
Easy, close, friendly staff, great place if you are a beginner or to go with a group. They will take care of you. They have rentals and paint and safety gear on site
When I went my first time they knew what to do and teach me how to play lol
Great place lots of fun and very nice staff would recommend this place to have a blast!!
My 10 yr old had his birthday party here. No one in our group had played paintball before. We were given instructions and watched a safety video and started playing. Everyone had a great time. I was impressed with the staff making safety a priority. The number one goal seemed to be sure that no one got hurt. We stayed til close and all the boys in our group are already wanting to return.
My son really enjoyed it just wear enough protection and u will be fine
Its great theres awesome safety rules and I recommend it but dont wear nice shoes
My grandson had a blast there.
We had my sons birthday party here its kind of expensive but we had so much fun and the guys are really helpful we will definitely be going back again.
I forgot to take pictures but oh well. I go there often. My gf just played for the first time. She loves it. Honestly yes paintballs sting for seconds then you dont feel it anymore. The store also has several of the most knowledgeable ppl to help you. For first timers I suggest Wednesday and thurThur nights to play one on one to figure things out. Its slower on those days so enjoy play a lot more often. Were doing date night there probably every Wednesday so if you wanna play with us.
What kind of protection should a 12 year old child wear??
Always a good time. Friendly staff. Pretty inexpensive and you get several hours of play. Would definitely recommend for bachelor parties, birthday parties, or business outings. All equipment can be rented there.
It was surprisingly fun, the staff that works there is very friendly and helpful and the people who are regular help you with the questions you have if its your first time in the place
Had a great time here and the people were nice. They provided overclothes incase you didnt want to get yours dirty
Went here with a group of co-workers for a private party and overall had a blast. Price is reasonable for the amount of game play you get and the gear you rent is in decent shape. Only reason Im not giving it 5 stars is the facility could use some maintenance.
Fun place to play inside in the des Moines area. Great staff and friendly people.
Had a very fun time with my friends for my birthday
All in all, had a great time. Staff is excellent, very knowledgeable and friendly and helpful in every aspect. Equipment seemed great for those who rented it. I would like to see the barriers completely blow up and possibly a few different paint purchase options. Prices where in line with other fields I would definitely recommend ICU paintball to anyone playing at any level.
Very fun indoor paintball place.
Just went there for my birthday and it was outstanding! The people are really nice, rentals are good, and the competition is always good for starters and pro’s. 5/5 stars easily.
Owner is almost always there and if anything is wrong he or the man working the register seem more than happy to make it right and take care of you, kids love the place and always want to come back and the pricing is pretty good. Staff are very friendly
ICU paintball is the best locally owned paintball shop. Good prices, knowledgeable staff that stands by their products.
Friendly informative staff. Fun for the family and kids!
Nice family feel... Can shoot the snot out of your friends... Wear old clothes... And loose clothes... Good prices...
It was a great time
Went to a birthday party there and watched a safety video. Then it was floor time and we swapped out with random teams and individuals. Was super entertaining!
Nice fun place
I had so much fun would to back any day !!!!!!!!!
I have been going to Icu for years. Whether you want to play there or get supplies to play in the woods, its your best option.
It Was Amazing!!! We Had So Much Fun.
Great place, ever want to learn about paintball or if its your first time ICU has fair prices!
This business was terrible. Almost all the staff acted like they didnt want to be there. Witnessed the owner berating staff in front of customers and would talk down to customers constantly. He looked at one of my friends guns and when he fired it once and a piece came out of the barrel, the owner handing back to him and said he wouldnt touch it.The play area was long AstroTurf and had, as one of the staff quoted, 10 years of paint on it. The floors were slippery with paint and it was pushed to the edges so it was like walking in fresh mud.The only positive thing this place has going for it is the person working behind the counter in the play area was friendly and wanted to be helpful.I wouldnt recommend this place to anyone.
This place is a go to for people looking for games every weekend or to get gear and parts or guns for any paintball gun. They fill tanks on site and supply balls and basic gear. And you can rent if youre just getting into it. But dont mention airsoft to any of the guys, they dont like talking about that hahaha
It is amazing I love it so much
Frustrating to say the least, the staff is unsafe/ walking around the field without masks during tournaments. Feels very dirty and slight off putting smell. There is only one field and it never seems to change.
Great place to buy suppliea
I dont play paintball here but I get my co2 tank refilled here almost every other weekend. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
Great time with paintballing this weekend. Well worth the bruises.
Nice place to have bday party group outing
I personally vow for ICU Paintball as a great place with great personnel! It is definitely my go to place for a great paintballing experience. Weather youre a first timer just looking to have a blast or an expert speedball team practicing for an upcoming tourny, I almost guarantee that you and your friends or family will have an absolute bast. The owner is an great guy and really looks to make your experience the best it can be, after i had paintballed at ICU Paintball about 3 times over the course of about three months he could remember who I was and treated me as a friend, as well as having spent nearly an hour fixing the trigger sensor on my Spyder Pilot with Eye for far less than anyone else would have charged. I have played at several different outdoor and indoor courses over the years and i would rank ICU Paintball as my absolute favorite when it comes to playing with and around great people, and within the top three when it comes to the course setup and style, so unless you plan on driving hours to go to the next closest to risk it not being worth the trip. My advice is go to ICU Paintball, try it out, and just have a good time.
Actually really fun!
Best time ever!
It was awesome, cant wait to do it again
Kinda jankey, but fun.
