Woodburn Lanes — Local services in Woodburn

Woodburn lanes is very old in bowling lanes terms. It is a quaint little 12 lane alley with wood lanes and a recently purchased modern scoring system.

My family and I tried to make a reservation here. We called in on the morning of the day we planned to go and got a reservation at 5:30. We live about 30 minutes away so we left at 4:50. About 15 minutes into the drive there, we got a call from the alley telling us they have canceled our reservation due to leauge. Somebody at the place was clearly confused and put us down anyways even though there was leauge. Thank goodness they called us before we got any further. It's hard to bowl at these places anymore because they have leauge basically EVERY NIGHT. So, unless you join a...
