Paintball Adventure Park

This is going to sound like a very long rant, but if you’re thinking about going here to play paintball, I would read this entire thing so you know what you’re getting into.
I have been out of the sport of paintball for about 7 years now and decided to brush off my old gear for a day of fun with 3 other friends. We found a Groupon for an «all day paintball experience for 4» for $ 20 which provided all day play, unlimited air, and equipment rental. We were aware that this package did not include paintballs and that the course required that you use their paint. We ran into our first issue within the first 10 minutes of arriving.
They had prices listed next to the window ($ 20 for 500 paintballs and $ 45 for 2000). We decided that we would probably need 1000 paintballs each for all day play, so our plan was to buy two cases of 2000 for $ 90, abiding by the rules of using the field’s paint and not bringing our own.
The man and woman working at the window were incredibly rude and would not allow us to share 2 cases of paint. They said that the groupon clearly stated that each person had to purchase paint as «individual transactions», the minimum being $ 20. We immediately thought that they were trying to screw us out of our groupon, so we pulled it up on our phones to show them that the rule was in fact not listed on the deal. They had an excuse for that as well. They claimed that the mobile version of the app didn’t show the whole deal and that it was written at the bottom if you brought it up on a computer. I am now typing this at home, on my computer, and I can confidently say that we were right about the rule not being there, and we definitely got screwed. So within the first 10 minutes, we experienced bad customer service and had to pay $ 80 for 500 paintballs each instead of $ 90 for the 4000 that we intended to purchase.
Now, onto the paintballs. We sucked it up and paid an absurd amount of money for the worst paintballs I have ever fed through my gun. They splattered when you dropped them from knee-​high and would chop every 10 shots out of the gun because they were so brittle. You can buy tournament grade paintballs for less than that price and I have shot the cheapest paintballs from walmart out of my gun with better success. This made for incredibly frustrating play because nothing was shooting straight as a result of all the chopped paint. The low quality paint completely ruined the experience, and I can’t believe I paid $ 20 for 500. Everyone I talked to was complaining and experiencing the same issues.
Finally, we were all geared up and ready to put our bad experience behind us and we started doing what we would end up doing for most of the day, WAITING. The referees sat around smoking cigarettes and talking to each other until THEY decided they would start a game. There seemed to be no set schedule of continuous games throughout the day. The woman told us it was one of the busiest days they had all year, having to rent out all 115 guns (so I assumed games would be going on non-​stop). There were a lot of people there, but anyone not playing as a member of a private group had to play on the same field. This resulted in most of the games being 45 v 45. It was ridiculous having to play with 5 people behind each bunker on the same field, when there were 4 other fields that were completely empty and not being used, even by the private parties. The refs were also very lazy. They would yell to start the game and then sit in the back and talk to each other. Many times, I saw people wipe off paint marks and continue playing even though they were clearly tagged out because the referees failed to put forth the effort to even watch. After each game, we refilled our ammo and air and were ready to play again, but yet again had to wait for a long period of time before the refs started another massive game. We were there from 10am-​5pm and they only had TEN total games. (each of which lasted for less than 10 minutes). It was a total waste of my time and money.
The combination of the rude employees, awful paintballs that we were forced to buy, slow pace of play and lackadaisical referees is enough for me to HIGHLY recommend you go elsewhere. I really enjoyed the sport of paintball and remembered having great experiences at other parks, but this was just an awful time. I will never be going back.

I’ve been going here for about 6 months now. It’s the closest outdoor field for me to play Airsoft at. The park is primarily for paintball players but we switch fields to change up the action. I know for Airsoft it’s 15.00 per person with free air refills all day. There are port o johns for use but not always clean as the day goes on. The do have food and drink. Hotdogs and such. Nothing you couldn’t bring yourself. There is a small staging area about 12 picnic tables under a roof. It fills up fast due to all the church groups. There are a few other picnic tsbles out in the sun here snd there. The staff is fair on game play and stress safety. There is plenty of parking. The only real complaints I have are field maintenance. The grass always needs to be cut. The buildings are wood and badly in need of repair and or upgrade. If you lean, touch etc on a wall you will be slimed by paintball grease. It’s fun to go to but in desperate need of renovations. That’s why it’s only 3 stars.
