Great place for family outings and celebrations. Mine has been several times for birthdays, Fathers Days, Mothers Days and just days when it’s too hot or too cold outside for activities. Food menu is pretty minimal but what they do have is good. They have a selection of beers, wine, hard alcohol, non-alcoholic drinks, energy drinks and water. Very clean and spacious atmosphere with comfortable couches and tables. We love the automated ball returns which not all indoor golf places have.

Good vibe and experience, little bit on the pricey side for the quality of sim. No club data on shots.

This was one probably the highest quality simulators that I’ve been to. I also want to highlight that Jessica was EVERYTHING for our family when we visited. She was able to create a drink for me that was amazing, was incredible and quick with all of the orders that our group had, and most of all - she made my children feel absolutely loved and accepted. She also recommended places and attractions for the area that would be a great fit for our family. Not only amazing golf, but incredible service. I absolutely recommend, and we will definitely be back when we visit Rapid City again!

When we arrived at our reservation time we stood there for several minutes waiting to be helped. The one and only employee was in the kitchen area fixing food. She came out put our name in the computer. Pointed to where we were to play. Asked us if this was our first time. Then said if we had any questions to just ask. Every time we had a question which held up our playing time we had to go find her. Then right as our time was up she came and let us know that there were people that had a reservation for that time
