“Hot Ground Gym is incredible! Two of my kids attend HGG camps and days off school regularly and they LOVE IT. And our youngest is old enough to attend camp with her older siblings this summer too! I love HGG as a parent because of the confidence it builds in my very different children. Recently HGG came to our elementary school and donated their time for our students to enhance leadership + teamwork. It was inspiring and I am so grateful for HGG’s involvement in our local community. You cannot find a better place for your kids to discover their own strengths. Thank you Sam & Doug!”

“Beautiful little park, wonderful trails for running, walking, biking. Sandy beach area with fire pits. Fantastic beer garden next to the water. I don't think I've ever seen a place with all this before.”
“Let me preface this review by saying this is my first ever Google Review, which means I was really compelled by the awesome staff at the Marina's front desk ("Marina Check In" -- ?) to pen this tome. It was sweltering here in the Harbor this morning and I wasn't sure if the nice pool here at North Point Marina was part of the Yacht Club, or open to the public for a fee. That sweetheart Rachael -- with all deliberate speed -- quickly answered my first question....and that was....that I was free to pay $15 her and enter. But toddlers 2 and under were free, she said....And here I sit on this deck chair beach char that looks completely ecologically friendly as it appears to be made of injection molded recycled plastic ?
Seriously, Rachael and the whole crew of the at least 4 office workers in the front desk area were all super friendly and very knowledgeable about the Marina and it's environs...and that even includes Johnathon, who was also very helpful, despite the fact that his favorite bird is the R ed B reasted F inch ? ?
Now, no review could possibly be complete without at least a brief mention of my hoody purchase! Yes...there is a lovely selection of Hoodies on the table just to the right of the front desk...and I just loved the hoody that reads "Lake Michigan-- Unsalted." So when I could not locate my size, Rachael told me she thought she had some "Mediums" in the back ? ? ? ....actually....Rachael strongly advised to "go bigger" for the sweaty clothes...and I took her advice...much for the better. Darn good thing she found me two 2X's in the back ? ?.
And...a special shout out goes to Ashley...who tracked me down walking my bicycle over to the pool...and gave me my neatly packaged hoodies.
Thanks to the whole front office staff at the Marina!! They were all fantastic and I would highly recommend a trip to the Marina...or walking on the numerous paths here...and especially lunch, dinner or cocktails at the restaurant here at the Marina, The Tropics”

12304 75th St, Kenosha“The venue is nice, and the food is pretty decent. A huge drawback is the sign isn't lit and isn't obvious of how to get to it at night because it's right next to the Brat Stop.”
“Had a great time bowling with my best friend of almost 20 years. We went an hour after opening. It was nice because no one else was there and we had a blast. The cartoons they displayed on the bowling screen are so cute. Military discount and very friendly staff. They also played older music with music videos on screen projectors. Was nice to see”
“They are now making pizza from scratch and let me tell you ... It's amazing! The dough is perfect and they have the best cheese. The best part is, they sell it by the slice!!”
“An awesome experience to meet other Navy recruit families. Dedicated sarge who put this on and for the owner of this place to donate it for our use free of charge!”

199 North Harbor Pl, Waukegan“My kids and I crashed the grounds of WYC to take photos for my sons Navy Graduation (10/15/2021). It was the most beautiful backdrop to our new Sailor saluting! We were greeted by Bo who graciously invited us in for a beer. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we were unable to come in...But we appreciate the offer, congratulations and hope to be back someday when we are in town again. Thank you for having us! You made Louis's Graduation extra special!”
“Book this place!I had my daughter’s “Two Sweet” birthday party here and it was perfect! The fact that they provide the chairs and tables is a huge plus! They also allow a little BYOB (no glass), so the adults had a little fun too. :) And a full 12 hours for the price was pretty amazing. I will definitely be booking future parties here as well.”

5706 8th Ave, Kenosha“Loved the way the hotel has been renovated from an old sawmill! They were a life saver for us because the Super 8 hotel canceled our reservation at the last minute and the stella had one room left and they were hosting my nephew's wedding. The cost of the room was high, and the room was not that great, and the air conditioner rarely came on. We ate breakfast at their little breakfast nook the next morning, and the free coffee was horrible, and the sandwiches weren't that much better. For the prices they are charging to stay there I was disappointed ?. The reception room was small but adequate for the size of the wedding party. The food was cool and the bar was great. I think you should get more for your money for $270 a night in the small town if Kenosha Wisconsin.”
“Me and my friends went to see the Deadpool and Wolverine movie a few days ago here and it was awesome. The movie was just so amazing and hilarious. The theater was also very good as always with the reclining seats and huge movie screen. I will be back to see the Borderlands movie in August.”
“Had reserved and paid for the room before hand for a king. Get to the room and it was 2 queens. Had been traveling 15 1/2 hours so was too tired to go back and try to change things. Had problems with the card reader so we had to use another machine.”

1440 S White Oak Dr, Waukegan“My family and I stayed here for 4 days. We had a 2 room suite and we really liked it. It was comfortable the room was clean and even had dishes in the kitchen. The furniture was a bit worn but that wasn't a big deal for us. The staff were super friendly and helpful. If you're going to be staying in the area for Navy graduation I would definitely recommend this hotel.”

“I recently hosted my child's birthday party at the Launch and I have to say, the manager, Gustavo, went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. From helping me book the party package to making sure all the kids were having a great time, the manager was always on top of things.They were extremely attentive and accommodating, making sure all the kids were safe while still having a blast. The manager even helped coordinate food delivery and made sure the party room was set up perfectly for us.Overall, Gustavo’s attention to detail and excellent customer service really made the party a success. I would highly recommend hosting a party at Launch and working with their wonderful manager. Thank you for a great experience!”

Already planning my next one soon!”
