You won’t hear cries of “I’m bored!” at the Putters & Gutters location in Marble Falls. The fun center offers an array of activities and entertainment, including a bowling alley, a mini-golf course, a go-kart track, an arcade, a skating rink, a concert hall, and a restaurant and bar with plenty of parking.
Putters & Gutters is the peak of family entertainment in the Highland Lakes. Founded in Lampasas in 2017, Putters & Gutters opened the Marble Falls center in 2022.
BOREDOM BUSTERS
Knock down pins with family and friends on the 15 bowling lanes, which are open 365 days a year. It’s a great way to beat the heat or get out of the cold.
Take the competition outside to the 18-hole mini-golf course complete with mini-palm trees and sand fields surrounding the main putting green. The arid course tests a golfer’s luck with tricky rock formations that can make putting difficult for novices. The course also houses a shiny, metal silo near the final three holes.
After so much activity, visitors are bound to get hungry. Broken Fork, the in-house restaurant, serves a full menu of delicious food as well as alcoholic beverages for ages 21 and older.
Once you’ve got your grub, explore some more, including the skating rink. Wheels are provided and old-time rock ‘n’ roll is your soundtrack. Practice rails are available for first-timers.
An arcade room is packed with electronic games, including air hockey and drag racing. Save your tickets and cash in for awesome prizes.
For actual racing, hop over to the outdoor go-kart track, which spans the back of the complex, giving speed demons plenty of space to let loose.
On top of all of that, Putters & Gutters hosts monthly cornhole tournaments for those who want to take the classic backyard game to the next level. To play, you must sign up online at the start of each month. Each week, teams progress until the final two remain. Tournament winners are eligible for a cash prize.
And don’t overlook the center’s massive concert venue with multi-level seating out back, which in the past has hosted country artists Kevin Fowler, Neal McCoy, Lorrie Morgan, Aaron Watson, and John Conlee. Check Putters & Gutters events page or Facebook page for a schedule.
