My daughter loves to go bowling. We bowl at Fantasy Springs Lanes because it's somewhat close to our home. We have been there a few times when they were not able to give us a lane due to leagues or birthday parties.
We have learned to call ahead to make sure they have lanes open. There was an insodent when we did call ahead and they told us they would have open lanes between certain hours. When we arrived they told us they did not have any open lanes due to leagues. My daughter was very disappointed.
