Have always loved Centerfield Park. Great locally owned small business and friendly staff. See you next weekend!

Great experience every time I go there. Given that the mini golf needs a bit of TLC. But the attendant are usually pretty helpful and friendly. Great option for some family fun at a good price. Sad to see it up for sale.

I'm not judging the park for its batting cages. Although 15 pitches for $1 seems a bit High to me. But they offer a good opportunity for a child or teen to work on their hitting. The one-star rating is for the miniature golf course. It is in dire need of maintenance. If it were a house it would be condemned. Debris from trees everywhere. Tree limbs on the courses. Part of the course is not even usable. The Fountains and waterfalls are not even working. Crumbling landscape timbers, broken lights, buckled turf on the putting greens that make it impossible to get an accurate shot. And they charge $7 per person for this terrible experience. Management needs to get its act in gear.

Centerfield Park used to be a great place to bring your family and kids to have a bit of fun for a cheap price. Even just last year, we enjoyed mini-golf a few times. However, that seems to not be the case anymore.

The mini-gold course is really run down and poorly maintained. The felt surface is flat and smooth, so the balls glide over way more than they should which can leave them stuck against a wall or on dirt clods matted to the surface that also shouldn't be on the felt. So that made playing very poor and unfun. But a lot of stuff just isn't maintained. There are broken brick walls, cracked wood, bushes that overhang the course, etc. The second course which has been closed for some time looks like a storm came through and no one has done anything about it.

Basically, it's just so poorly maintained I can't recommend anyone go there for fun. They are selling the place based on the sign out front, so that might be why they aren't trying to keep the place in good condition?

Also, the owner was there when we purchased our tickets. He spent 5-10 minutes complaining about his own staff and how he can't keep enough people hired. That's a bad look to complain to your customers like that and sets a poor mood. Maybe they don't work there because he doesn't offer enough money or treats them poorly? That's speculation, but someone who can't show care in maintaining their very public business assets might also have a lack of attention to detail in private matters as well.

This place is run down. Empty ponds and fountains filled with trash and junk. Green water in a pool that used to be for bumper boats. The obsticles on the mini golf consist of a lot of ripped turf. Broken lights, missing bricks and rotting wood all over. Mini golf is $7 per person. Cash or check only. The employee was nice but I only saw one running the whole place.

Son wanted to play golf and have fun. We definitely wasn't happy when we got there. Gocarts not working couple golf holes were shut down. Looks half way closed. Don't recommend going. On the plus side workers was nice.

What a dump . Eight bucks to play "miniature golf " . Really putting on concrete. Greens are destroyed . Only one course was open in the whole park. Best thing for this place is a bulldozer at this point.

Run down, complains how no one wants to work and he doesn't want to pay them. Food is bought from super valu on clearance. Cheap only goes so far. Fix the place or demolished it's an eyesore
