As a residency program we booked our spring retreat and overall had an awesome time! We were able to have a number of team building activities for the whole group to participate. It was great to see the residents have such a good time working together and laughing the whole way. Our event staff who organized the retreat were great!!

We have not had this much fun in a long time. The staff was accommodating, kind, and just plain amazing!! Shout out to the bartender Joe for remembering our names. Everyone that worked there seemed to love their job. Customer service was exceptional! Well worth the 1.5 hour drive!!!

Great birthday party for our 8 year old and her friends. Our concierge Belle was fabulous, very understanding, and accommodating for our group. We did the go karts, jellyball battle, and arcade. The room was clean and ready for our decorations upon arrival.

I took my teen granddaughters to High Caliber for a β€œ mystery trip β€œ. What a great time they had! Kate at the front desk was sweet, fun and helpful. The β€œ fun” isn’t based on the laps around the course, but for a full six minutes. I thought that was extremely fair for the cost. They even have a two seater, for the too-young-to-drive or anyone wanting the fun without driving. Will definitely take them again and I highly recommend it for fun for almost all ages.

They call us High Caliber Karting & Entertainment for a reason, y’know?

Karting Tips & Safety

  • Closed-toe shoes. Gotta keep your toe-jam from flying off and hitting the kart behind you.
  • These karts are not bumper cars. Damage the kart and it is likely to damage you.
  • There is no hard weight limit, but if you are a titan of a person, we will gladly let you sit in a kart to test how it feels.
  • Racers under the age of 16 will race at reduced speeds for their safety.
    Racer training courses are available by appointment to level up their speeds if they pass the course.
