Review: I found this field on this web site and read the review written by the other guy. I was impressed by what he had written. I figured that I would give it a try as the price seemed right. I was weary about what he had written and figured that he could not be right about all of what he had written as he was the only person who had written a review about the field. Lets put it this way a small group of us went and played on the weekend and we were all impressed. The rentals were all decent, the staff were very helpful, the owner was great and very helpful. The price was unbeatable. $35 for renters which included the first 100 rounds and only a $10 enterence fee for gun owners. After that the paint was $5 for 100 rounds and $10 for the good stuff. At the start of the day we did the usual safety and rules speech and then we got right in to the games. At lunch we had burgers $2 and hot dogs $1 then we were back in to the games. The refs were great they checked with us to decide when we wanted to take a break and not when they wanted to take a break our breaks were as short or as long as we wanted them. The only washroom they had was an outhouse so if you need running water and all that sort of stuff then you are out of luck. I recommend calling before attending to make sure the field is not booked up for a large group first. They have a woods ball field in a valley with a creek, a speed ball field and hopefully next year they will have a town set up. My only drawback abot this field is that there is not much selection for playing fields yet. I hope for next summer he will have the town built as this will open up another playing environment. The players at this field were a big mix of seasoned and rookie players ranging in age from 10 to 50. I would bring my kids here to play any day as long as it stays as friendly as it is now. I will definitely play here again any day.
