New and Improved Playland Brings Fun for Hartland Families

Grand opening specials for the new and improved Castaway Cafe begin Friday.

With two stories, sniper holes and plenty of hiding spots, the new laser tag arena recently added to Castaway Cafe in Howell gives families in Livingston County a new option for fun, family entertainment.

With the ability to constantly change the game and allowing multiple players in a large playing field, General Manager Amanda Miller predicts the new addition will quickly become a customer favorite.

"I absolutely love the laser tag because the whole entire family can play and it's competitive, which is what I really like," Miller said. "And we also have the ability to change up the games so it's always fresh and new."

Already housing the largest indoor play structure in Michigan, the new and improved family center now offers activities that appeal to older age groups as well with the addition of the laser tag but also multiple bounce houses, an arcade and an atomic rush light game.

And the renovations aren't done yet.
