We had a corporate event here and it was a wonderful experience! The staff here is awesome. It was a great team building activity. Everyone was laughing and truly enjoying themselves. I would definitely recommend coming here for parties, corporate events, or just an evening activity!

This was an impromptu last minute date night idea for my husband and I. Not only were we greeted by a super friendly and knowledgeable staff, but we were surprised by the amount of help, guidance, and above and beyond service that we received the whole time we were there. After throwing axes, we played darts, ate pizza, had some drinks and chatted with the staff. The whole experience was amazing and we will definitely be back.

Friendly, fun and a first time new! This area has the specifics of offering a thrill of axe throwing to an intimate small audience. As we were first timers and the first to arrive, we were greeted kindly and with all the assistance and guidance needed. This axe throwing arena has other sports and activities to serve in the building such as escape rooms, rock walls, pool tables, and a ninja arena. Each division has their own prices and areas to play and use. We came for the axe throwing and for $30 a person an hour we had our own lane- which meant we did not have to share our space with other parties. With our timing and the pace of others we were able to go between a regular range and played with a zombie board too.
Prices are to standards of what is the norm in areas, for one hour though I was hoping for a little more razzle- dazzle? An hour spent can be great with the right company; I would want the music a little louder something unique to the game for those that come to truly experience.
The Backyard is almost there , but I can't quite put my finger on what it's missing to get the 5 just get.
FUN- yes- clean - absolutely- new - truly 🙂

Teens had a great time! The kids really enjoyed the cornhole games, escape rooms and the other activities that they offer. Customer service was good as well. I'm sure they will want to go back soon!

Who knew axe throwing could be so fun!? We had a group of 14 for axe throwing and everybody had a great time. Can't wait to go back!

Brandon and his coworker, and the guy at the bar were the best! Such a fun and chill experience/environment!!! Definitely a fun way to get your energy out! Wish they had this place in Cape Coral because we would be there all the time! Definitely worth the three and a half hour drive!

Went to The Backyard for a late Sunday outing with a couple of friends.
Anthony was our instructor and he did a wonderful job.
All three of us were a bit clumsy at first but Anthony was very patient and worked with each one of us to "refine" our techniques.
After throwing on our own for 10 - 15 minutes Anthony came by again and gave each of us pointers which helped tremendously.
Just the right amount of coaching and learning by doing.
Very convenient that beer and wine are sold on premises.
All three of us had a blast.
I would recommend this place to anyone!

10/10, would definitely recommend. Such a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. James was a great Axe Coach, fun and relatable. Also very professional. The food was great, too! We felt like guests, not just customers. We’ll be back soon!

Awesome! Great place for family activities! Nice and friendly staff. My daughter and I didn’t enjoy axe throwing and the staff let us do other games instead. My husband had a blast in axe throwing .

Great time. Anthony was very helpful telling us how to throw the 🪓 so we didn't get hurt and getting it to stick. He told us about other games they are coming out with soon. Really good time and good staff.

My husband and I visited on a Saturday night to throw axes, and we are so glad we did! What a fun thing to do on date night. The staff were all super helpful, fun, and accommodating. We will be back!

Fun place. Great to be able to play social outside games in an indoor air conditioned venue. We enjoyed an hour of Bocce ball (lane rental is $25 per hour for up to 4 people). They had a Sunday pizza and pitcher of soda deal for $12, but we didn't partake this time. They also had axe throwing, darts, corn hole, shuffleboard, etc. The snack bar area is pretty large. Women's bathrooms were freshly cleaned. Employees were friendly and efficient. I would be interested to know if they had more deals with additional time at a reduced rate or a varied bundle of activities that could be purchased (armband?). The Backyard would be a great idea for a birthday or graduation party without weather or bug issues. I am sure we will return!

The best place to go for team building. A top-notch place for fun. Brought some out of town friends here on a Friday night for some Axe Throwing. Thank you all for a great time. We will be back.

What a fun place! And the staff is super informative and friendly. Reasonably priced for activities. Must do for a family night out, date night or just to hang out with friends.

Outstanding service and flexibility. Had a unit function with a few extra/unusual requests and they met them all. Recommend this place to everyone to enjoy. The owner Terry , his manager Tamara and the rest of the team was extremely helpful, polite and patient with us.
Thanks again for all you did to make our outing a success.

Lots of fun! Friendly staff. Nice, clean environment. I highly recommend!
First time axe throwing. It made for a good afternoon with my son.
I plan to return and try some of the food and other activities. Looking forward to more axe throwing too.

First time attending and Brian did a great job teaching our group how to do the axe throw. The staff cheered for us making everyone feel a little more comfortable to throw an axe. Would recommend them!

Such a fun experience. Everyone was helpful and even made the effort to accommodate our late arrivals. Anthony couldn't have been kinder in instructing our group on how to throw (repeatedly). He helped make this an outstanding ladies night for our group. We will certainly be back.

We wanted to have a team building event for our 14U girls fastpitch softball team while we were in Melbourne for a tournament. We even invited our sister team to join us. Terry and the Team were extraordinarily flexible and helped us put together a great event (with limited notice). Our girls AND parents had an absolute BLAST! Our coaches participated as well and it helped loosen everyone up for bracket play. This story has a happy ending because we also won our division! It was a safe, fun AND air conditioned option for our athletes. Would highly recommend The Backyard for other Teams.
