vince's sports center

Traveler-19060

I was looking for a local chip and putt to take my 11 year old stepson whom I am just introducing to golf. Many of the chip and putts in my area have closed over the years. (The land consumed by development). I found Vince's on the web and have to admit I was a little reluctant after reading some old reviews. We ended up having a great time! It was the PERFECT place to intro someone to golf or tune up your short game. The conditions were good and certainly more than acceptable for chip and putt. The rest of the facility could use some attention but if you are looking for a decent chip and putt, Vince's will very adequately fit the bill. We will definitely be taking the half hour drive again.

The arcade is slightly out of date and smallish. The snack bar is basic. The Mini golf is inexpensive and fun. It could use a little refurbishment but it is not too shabby and for the prices, not bad at all.This is an affordable place to take the family for an afternoon of fun.

Really miserable excuse for a "fun" center. Junky little mini golf that has horrible lighting and more bugs than a swamp, run down old arcade with a LOT of broken games (can't they move them to storage if they are too cheap to fix or replace them?), and rip-off ticket games that only pay out a few tickets for high scores (prizes are a joke even if you do manage to get a decent pile of tickets). This place needs owners that actually take some pride in their business and aren't just on cruise control since 1995! Only amusement center EVER that my kids didn't like. Our 6 year old had a high score on skeeball and the stupid thing stopped spitting out tickets- huge letdown!

Ceiling looks like its going to fall down in some spots. We went July or August and I was amazed at the amount of spiders and Mosquitos. Bugs everywhere. The staff was ok but the place needs a lot of work. I rather drive to xbos even if it is farther and expensive. Sad we wish this place worked we need a place close to home for family fun.

We have only been here to hit balls at the batting cages, which are conveniently indoors for a nice rainy day activity. Yes there is paint chipping off of the walls and holes in the ceiling are patched poorly, but the pitching machines still work so it doesn't matter to me what the place looks like.

We have taken two sets of grand kids here to play put-put golf. They all had fun, but some repairs could be done to upgrade the facility. One grand son wanted to do some softball hitting, but he was too short to do the job HE wanted to do.

Run down and not well lit. We went in the early afternoon and as it started getting dark it was very difficult to play mini golf.

When my children were little this was the place to host a birthday party. The par-3 course was a fun diversion. Now it looks and feels tired and is just going through the motions. It is sad because there is a real need and market for Vince's. A fresh coat of paint, some light bulbs, and modern games would be nice; as would the some basic lawn care and bug spray on the par 3 course. Also the old vacant? house needs to be removed or renovated.

Very dirty with a lot of cursing. Some games that are not functioning.Used to be a fun place with minature golf and a small par three golf course but the crowd is too rough for me to take my kids there now. I will drive the extra distance for the fun zone in Middletown.

The place is a little run down but my daughter and I had a fun time playing on the games and mineature golf. We will definately go back.

Nice sized arcade, had my son's bday party there. They took care of the details and the kids had a great time. Mini-golf course is well-cared for and inexpensive and SHADED!

If you are going for the arcade, STOP, this is not the place to go. But as far as the sports go, the batting cages are great but can be crowed on the weekends so reserve a cage. They too have golf and miniature golfing.

2 miniature golf courses, arcade, batting cages and assorted food. The prices are very reasonable. The staff was very friendly and helpful!

Par 4 golf.... not bad but can be too crowded. Not a bad place if you are learning.

Not as fancy or new as some other places but it does have a batting cage (we never used it but may try now that the kids are older). Has a small mini-golf course out front that doesn't get much use. Still a reasonable place for some entertainment or a birthday party.
