The summer sun is beautiful, but some afternoons are just too hot to spend outside! On those particularly stuffy afternoons, it's nice to enjoy an indoor activity with friends or family members. Luckily, there are plenty of family fun centers in the South Bend and St. Joseph areas. Here are a few top spots our real estate agents recommend.
- Strikes & Spares Entertainment Center - 5419 N. Grape Road, Mishawaka, IN 46545
If you're in the area looking at Mishawaka homes for sale, stop by Strikes & Spares Entertainment Center for some fun. Here, you'll find an indoor go-kart track, bowling, and Glo-Golf. The bowling is some of the best in the area with automatic bumpers and touch-screen scoring. Strikes & Spares also features an arcade, where games are playable with a refillable swipe card.
