South Mountain Park

10919 S Central Ave
Phoenix, AZ 85042

Camelback Mountain

McDonald Drive
Phoenix, AZ 85073

Eric P. writes: Being in the fortuitous position to still 'get' a Spring Break, and moreover, get PAID cash-money to sit on my happy ass whilst my pen-salesman-esque friends do important things in their offices, like make fake Wiki entries of their co-workers and…

Phoenix Zoo

455 N Galvin Pkwy
Phoenix, AZ 85008

Thomas S. writes: While I myself enjoyed my brief stint in a hanging cage at a club in Chicago, I doubt very much the animals here are happy about it. At least I got to get liquored up. These poor fellas get Phoenix tap water. Groddy!

As far as zoos go, this one rates…

Gainey Village Health Club & Spa

7477 E Doubletree Ranch Rd
Scottsdale, AZ 85258

Larry C. writes: Yoga here is rock and roll. They literally have disco music going and its competitive yoga. Its actually a nice change of pace from bay area yoga since not every session needs to be a ground breaking journey in self exploration.

Basketball here in…

Superstition Springs Golf Club

6542 E Baseline Rd
Mesa, AZ 85206

Daniel L. writes: This club is top notch in all respects. not only is it gorgeous and way out of my league, but it is a lot of fun. I truly felt like Tiger (or his cousin Panther) off the tee because that thin air let that ball travel. The greens play slower than…

Cooper'stown Phoenix

101 E Jackson St
Phoenix, AZ 85004

W .. writes: Pretty cool spot to have a few beers before and/or after a game. The decor is interesting, and you'll find tons of signed guitars, photographs, pictures of Cooper himself and other items lining the walls.

The waitresses tend to dress a little funky…

24 Hour Fitness

3233 E Camelback Rd
Phoenix, AZ 85018

Alicia B. writes: I don't really like this gym. With that said, I signed up to give myself more cardio options. From machines (which I never use) to classes, I wanted a wider range of possibilities when breaking a sweat. I never intended to use their weight machines,…

Inner Vision Yoga

1949 W Ray Rd
#8
Chandler, AZ 85224

Jordan V. writes: I tried out Inner Vision when I was home for the holidays and I was very impressed. I went to a 7am heated class with Josh. The class style was similar to the traditional Bikram sequence, but the room wasn't quiet as hot. Josh was an excellent…

McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park

7301 E Indian Bend Rd
Scottsdale, AZ 85250

Sarah G. writes: I took my sister and 14 month old nephew here while they were visiting.

Golf Club At Eagle Mountain

14915 E Eagle Mountain Pkwy
Fountain Hills, AZ 85268

Jay W. writes: This is probably really only a 4.5 star rating but I have to give it 5 because there was a shower in the locker room which, as we headed straight from the course to the airport, made the trip back home much more pleasant.

Of the 4 courses played on a…

Wildlife World Zoo

16523 W Northern Ave
Litchfield Park, AZ 85340

Margaret L. writes: Mr. Lion didn't like being scolded about his treatment of the female species...but I didn't think he could hear us! We didn't taunt, or point, or even call 'here kitty kitty'. But still, he launched his powerful body from one end of his exhibit…

Triple Sports

4032 North Miller Road
Suite 100
Scottsdale, AZ 85251

Warren W. writes: Not a biassed review; I do not know the owners, nor do I have any affiliation with them. We live not too far away and it is GREAT to have such a resource (with so little attitude) so close by! Bike tune? no problem. Wet suit rental? no problem. So…

Japanese Friendship Garden - Ro Ho En

Phoenix, AZ 85073

Peoria Sports Complex

Peoria, AZ 85382

Salt River Tubing and Recreation

1320 N Bush Highway
Mesa, AZ 85201

Teri C. writes: I'm pretty much in agreement with the previous five reviews. A great way to spend the day when it's hitting over a hundred degrees! It's about a forty-five minute drive from Phoenix.

Golfland Sunsplash

155 W Hampton Ave
Mesa, AZ 85210

W .. writes: I will always love Golfland/Sunsplash and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Although I wish it wasn't filled with dirty, screaming kids that pee in the water, I still find it to be pretty darn fun.

In my younger years, the crazy water slides that made…

At One Yoga

10050 North Scottsdale Rd Suite 115
Scottsdale, AZ 85253

CrackerJax

16001 N Scottsdale Road
Scottsdale, AZ 85250

Christy L. writes: My husband and I were in search of a fun date place and Cracker Jax fit the bill. Located on Scottsdale Rd it's very easy to spot and bonus points that it is open until midnight. We enjoyed putt putt even though we're both terrible. He got his kicks…

Papago Golf Course

5595 E Moreland St
Phoenix, AZ 85008

Paul G. writes: It is a crime how much they charge you to play golf at Papago. Of course, the customer is ripping the course off instead of the other way around. This place may not have a lot of frills, but it is a well-maintained, challenging, and fun desert…

Village Racquet & Health Club

4444 E Camelback Road
Phoenix, AZ 85018

Gabi K. writes: I moved to Phoenix from Scottsdale about 10 months ago and along with that, I switched Village Health Club locations from the one at DC Ranch (which was brand new and amazing) to this one on Camelback...

3636 E Ray Rd Ste 2
Phoenix, AZ 85044

Whirlwind Golf Club

Chandler, AZ 85224

W .. writes: Okay so I've never golfed here, but I have toured the golf course in a cart that I'm sure was going 1mph and had a beer from a private party I wasn't invited to. Does that count?

I was here the other day to pick some stuff up after we had a golf…

Ocotillo Golf Resort & Bernard's Fine Dining

3751 S Clubhouse Dr
Chandler, AZ 85248

S to the izzo F. writes: Water water everywhere, in the middle of the desert! Very few holes on this 27 hole course don't have water involved with your shot! You know that you're in a very Arid place and the contrast with all the water around is pretty cool. It's target…

Fiddlesticks

8800 E Indian Bend Rd
Scottsdale, AZ 85250

W .. writes: Fiddlesticks is pretty fun. And while you may think you have to be under 12 to enjoy it, think again.

I had a great time here, and they have a ton of different things to do. It can get a little pricey though, so it's best to stick to one or two…

Talking Stick Golf Club

9998 E Indian Bend Rd
Scottsdale, AZ 85256

Not M. writes: Have played the north and south courses many times. They are both usually in great shape and the greens are usually kind of fast however in the last couple of years it seems that there are more ballmarks that go unfixed. The north is the more…

Ride Studio Cycling

8880 E. Via Linda
Suite 105
Scottsdale, AZ 85258

Scottsdale, AZ 85258

W .. writes: Bowling is one of those activities that I will never willingly take part in. Yet, every time I end up doing it, I have fun. Just be careful not to get cocky about your game, or Via Linda Lanes will strike you down, just as they did to me.

I have…

Ste 669
Tempe, AZ 85282

Fiddlesticks

1155 W Elliot Rd
Tempe, AZ 85284

Steve W. writes: Fun place to go and I wish we had something like this close to us in MN. Hit a bucket of balls, hit some balls in the batting cage, grab a quick bite and play some video games.....not a bad couple of hours!

There are some downsides. The food isn't…

Pure Fitness

7318 E Shea Blvd
Scottsdale, AZ 85260

W .. writes: Pure Fitness is a pretty good gym to go to. You can get a great price on a monthly membership ($18-23) and they don't make you sign a contract.

AMF Christown Lanes

1919 W Bethany Home Rd
Phoenix, AZ 85015

Stevey P. writes: Hands down, this is my favorite bowling alley in Phoenix. Talk about character, this spaceship-looking place is down with the 50s Googie architecture with the pointy eaves jutting diagonally into the sky.

I've been here many a Sunday nights for the…
