Fun Zone

Fun Zone in Pooler is the Savannah metro's most complete family entertainment center, and its 4.7-star rating across 6,000+ reviews isn't accidental — this place genuinely delivers a full afternoon of activity for kids who want more than a playground. It's the kind of place older kids and teens actually want to go, which makes it useful for the 10-and-up crowd that's harder to please.

The headline attraction is the go-kart track — a real track with real speed, not the slow kiddie version. Older kids and teens find this legitimately exciting. There are height and age requirements, so check before you go if you have younger children who might be disappointed at the gate.

Beyond go-karts: miniature golf (great for mixed-age groups, everyone can participate), a large arcade with redemption games, laser tag, and bumper cars. There's enough variety that a family can easily fill 2-3 hours without doubling back.

For mixed-age families, the strategy is to split and conquer: older kids on go-karts and laser tag while younger ones hit the arcade and mini golf. The arcade has machines for all skill levels, and redemption ticket games are endlessly engaging for 5-10 year olds who love the ritual of counting tickets.

Budget reality: Fun Zone is not cheap. Go-karts run about $10-12 per person per race, mini golf $8-10, arcade cards $10-20 per kid to have a meaningful session. A family of 4 planning to do multiple activities should budget $100-140 all-in including snacks. The value is real — you're getting hours of entertainment — but this isn't a casual pop-in.

Closed Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday — a detail that catches people off guard. Thursday through Sunday only. Plan accordingly.
