Sam's Town Bowling Center — Local services in Whitney

The Cosmic Bowling was fun and we were able to get right in. Not crowed but a few groups having fun. The normal well lit alley was more like a night club with lights dancing on the floor! The music was too loud for my tase as it was hard to hear each other talk. Just like a night club, you have to yell in each other’s ear to converse. But the song playing says the Artists name and song title on a screen so there’s no guessing game and it was mostly 80s rock. The shoes were good and the ball selection was good too. the snack bar was there too. when you go to the snack bar you really kind of would rather go up the escalator to get food from upstairs and bring it down with you which they do allow bathrooms are pretty clean it’s seem to close a little too soon because were having such a good time and there were people there in small groups having lots of fun as well everybody seemed friendly and the guy who was retrieving the bowling balls from the back getting ready for cleanup was very helpful in finding the right size for it to fit your fingers so that was a really good experience to if anybody wants to take the kids out for a fun night this is the place it’s really inexpensive the only thing I would say is that I thought we were going to get two full games for the price of eight dollars each but it turns out for 16 it cost $16 for two people to bowl ONE GAME. I really think they should charge less for their bowling they also offer parties and family night packages which is worth looking into for bigger groups I do think however they should lower the price per game to eight dollars for two people to play one game makes a lot more sense to me so other than that it was a great time but when you come out there’s also a tour near the waterfall that’s a free show and that was also nice easy to take the kids but park on the far facing the casino park on the far left side or you gonna have a long...

Went last night the 4th of July unlimited bowling 8am-8pm my kids voted to do this over fireworks. We got there around 230-3 and it was past 5 and we were into our 5th game. Assuming they did a shift change at 5 because the bowling "manager" Thomas Pippenger was now on shift. Both my kids had been using the bumpers. My daughter noticed hers were down so we tried to reset them and than she went and asked Thomas if they could put them back up to which he told her no you're too old to be using them. Now if he's come down to us and explained that she was too old to be using them and they weren't meant to be used like she was (because on 1 roll she bounced it off them 3 times) we wouldn't have had an issue but when you just turn them off and get rude with my daughter it's going to be an issue. I went and asked him if he was turning them back on to which I rudely got his explanation. I than said we'd been there since 230 and it wasn't an issue to which he replied I'm the bowling manager and he refused a refund. I than said if we were one of the corner lanes instead of 27 right in front of him he's never have noticed and he said he'd have walked around and noticed and got on the phone to security and I'll admit I got loud and short with him but my daughter's crying and I'm pretty sure our night is ruined. So my wife goes up and calmly tries to talk to the 2 ladies working since Thomas has now gone to an office with security there. So the young lady had to call and talk to him to finish cleaning up his mess. Great "management" and people skills there Thomas. Won't be going back here to go...

Personal opinion: It is better maintained than some other Coast Properties Bowling Lanes.

This is the first time bowling at this center so if I missed anything then please feel free to add more.

First of all park at Parking lot 1 which is on the North Side of the property. By doing this you avoid having to make your way through the casino floor.

Although it is below the main level of the property, it offers an escalator or an elevator. There may be another way but I did not venture further. What impressed me was it appears to be better maintained from the lanes and the overall settee area. Further, the scoring system is different from other Coast Properties I have bowled at and I personally love it as it provides a breakdown of stats, if you are into that.

The only things which were different if foremost, there is a step up to get to the bowling landing so please be aware of this. I have attached a photo of this. Secondly, there is no table in the settee area and seats are set apart. This might improve traffic flow but does not foster much interaction with team members. Additionally, if you are bowling a league or tournament, there is not much space to place your totes or bags. I have to note there is a small table but it is recessed from the seats and for every other lane. If you use range finders, there are none so remember the color tone might help. It is not required to have them.

Although it was closed, there is a bar, snack bar, a pro shop and...
