Hey guys today’s urbex brings us to Stow, Ohio at the abandoned Sto-Kent Family Entertainment. Closed in 2021, They had bowling, an arcade, bar, putt putt, and volleyball. The building was boarded up but it was so fun to walk the overgrown golf course! Man, that was sad though. There are plans for a new entertainment center to take over called Vans Pizza.

All right, and with that being said,
enjoy the video. Hey guys, I'm here in
Stow, Ohio at the abandoned Stow Kent
Family Entertainment. Used to live right
around the corner in Monroe Falls a long
time ago.
Um,
I didn't never came here, but I I do
remember it being here.
So,
yeah, they got like putt putt,
uh, volleyball, you know, the typical I
don't know if they have go-karts.
Um, you know, the typical like family
entertainment stuff.
Um, so yeah. Um, also this closed in
2021.
There is plans for this to become a Vans
pizza, which is a similar concept.
Looks pretty shabby.
Let's go walk around and see what we can
find. There it is. There's an ambulance.
Stow Kent. Why would you take the W off
of Stow? I don't get that.
But yeah, look. Look how shabby this is.
2021.
I don't think this has seen an update in
quite some time.
There is the volleyball court. You I
remember coming to places like this as a
kid.
These were always a lot of fun.
That is sadly overgrown.
Like a mini amusement park. Not
obviously nowhere near like a jog lake,
but it gives you that kind of feeling.
Salty sea crab
snack.
Okay.
Wow. Look at that.
A surfboard and the string lights and
the straw.
Wow.
Bud Light.
I guess they sold adult beverages here.
Wow.
This does feel like something that you
would find at Jo Lake.
Wow. The string lights.
People have dumped off their trash. I'm
sure somebody's
probably slept here.
This is a glasses lens. Very strange.
Let's see if we can walk up to this uh
volleyball court. Remember
Mr. Divots in North Roy?
I think that place is still around
if I'm not mistaken.
This reminds me of Mr. Divots.
So, they had picnic tables up here and
they must have blown off.
Oh, shoot. There's the putt putt course.
I didn't even see it till I got up here
because it's so overgrown.
Here we can get into the volleyball net.
Wow.
Bud light.
There's a little sand toy.
And that chair.
Wow.
This is a cool one.
[Applause]
There's a sign over there, too.
Let's walk on the putt putt course. Wow,
this place is freaking awesome.
I don't Yeah. No, I haven't explored
anything like Well, I did go to Joa
Lake, but that's a huge amusement park
and this is like a little one.
Wow.
It was always really cool when the putt
putt courses had like a water element to
them,
which I think this one did.
This is nuts.
Oh, there is some water down there. How
cool is that?
Yeah. So, this was like a a stream.
I was no good at putt putt whenever I
played it. I was I lost a lot at putt
putt,
but I still had a lot of fun. So,
[Applause]
This is pretty cool.
Wow,
there's animals. There's a
golf called full.
Pretty cool putt putt for us.
This almost looks like a McDonald's
[Music]
shady over here
with their shovel here.
Wow,
that's so sad.
On a day like this, this place should be
open and thriving. Well, they are
opening this back up.
There's a sign right here. I'm going to
see what that says. I'm sure it probably
says Stoke Family Entertainment.
Oh, it says Fish Creek Golf.
It's pretty awesome.
This place is pretty cool.
You like it?
>> Mhm.
>> Oh yeah.
Look at the wall.
This is where you would write your
scores down.
>> There's a factory over there.
This is probably where you bought the
putt putt stuff.
Putt putt, you know,
buy your golf balls or whatever.
Oh, nice. Uh,
wow.
the ladder.
Okay,
now
let's look at the main building. It's
got a lot of boards on it.
I like the colorful
um decorations.
What?
Oh my goodness. Look at that tile.
the random little tiles.
Kind of weird.
What was that? I wonder
top. Okay,
this building looks pretty shabby. I
wonder if this the new place is just
going to knock this down.
This place looks bad.
The lizards
and the random shoes. That's creepy.
All right, and that will complete my
look at the abandoned Stowent Family
Entertainment.
That was pretty unique. I'd like to see
more places like this. Hopefully this
place becomes something
good and
um
you know, life is brought back. It's
supposed to. So hopefully it happens.
Oh yeah. I hope you guys enjoyed it and
I'll see you on the next
