“A must play course in the Des Moines area. Some very long, challenging holes. Course can be a bit confusing to navigate your first time around. Course is well maintained.”
“The staff were nice. There's double price tags on some items, which is confusing. Otherwise the store was tidy and organized. There's a nice variety of fishing accessories. We'll stop back by next time we're in the area.”
“Great experience! Christine helped me find the perfect shoes. She was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. She really listened to everything I said and had me try different shoes that she knew could be great for me, and wow were they! Couldn't be happier with my experience and new shoes!!”
“Dane (and Zane) provided excellent customer service, answering all our questions on the different options available for equipment which would fit in a small house. We ended up with a rowing machine which fits our needs perfectly for both space constraints and an all-around work out.”
“Just had the best experience at this store. Tom spent a long time helping my 8 year old get her new helmet adjusted just right. The service was above and beyond. Thank you!”
“I had an excellent experience at Fitness Sports! I went in looking for a shoe recommended by my PT therapist. The shelf was bare. BUT...there were some in the back and they were perfect! There were others in the store, but I was his focus. Very professional and they know their stuff!!! Thank you for fitting me with my new Altras!!!”
“Best skate shope ever. This is lowkey the cleanest store i've ever been in. By far. Kevin keeps the place organised and as clean as a museum. Also, great heating and cooling system so whenever the typical Iowa weather rolls around, its always either a good place to warm up, or cool down. The employees are also always welcoming to people of all backrounds. Very friendly and super helpfull. When I went to Subsect years ago, to build my first good board, i think i spent an hour and a half in there just deciding and hyperanalyzing 3 different decks. Eventually they helped me choose a great board that I was very happy with. Needless to say, the people at subsect have always been super attentive to their customers and always helpfull to me. As well as awnsering all my stupid questions over the years, with patience. The atmosphear is also top notch. It somehow gives a professional, laid back feel. They are also great with little kids. Additionally, their stock selection is incredible, and unlike big stores, they have products that skaters actually want! I should also mention that they have both a sale board, and sale shoe rack, as well as clearence bins sometimes. Those have definitely helped me keep skating in times when money was tight. If you dont see what you're looking for, feel free to ask any of the employees for help, and they will always help find what you need. Overall, by far the best skateshop around. I would recomend everybody go to Subsect for anything skateboard related. If you want the most friendly helpfull expierience, knowledgeable employees, and respect, go to Subsect. 10/10 would absolutly recomend to anybody. Thank you Subsect and Skate DSM for fueling my skate journey over the years.”
“Bought my clubs from Kinley’s a few years ago and just recently had the grips upgraded. Great experience every time. Everyone there is always friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable without being pushy. They took great care of me and had my clubs feeling brand new again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for clubs, repairs, or golf gear in the Des Moines area.”
“This was my first visit to AE and I'm sad I hadn't visited prior to today! Their selection is incredible and they truly have everything that you are looking for. I needed to refresh my winter coat options and found many options worth considering here - as well as cute sweaters to get me through the rest of winter. Morgan helped me find the best options and her knowledge on every product she showed me was incredible and so helpful! The store was clean and organized and the employees did a really great job of being present with every person in the store. I will be back!”
“We were interested in a 4D massage chair, but knew little about them. Laudon showed us several floor models, answered all of our questions, provided excellent information, and was professional and knowledgeable. We had a great experience and purchased one that works for us. The warranty is very good. Prices are as expected for high end items. Overall we had a great experience. Thanks Laudon!”
“Dean and his wife are amazing people, down to earth genuine small business owners. They are always there to greet you with a smiling face. We don't go anywhere else for our fishing supplies for bait!”
“We had a great experience shopping here. They took the time to answer all of our questions with knowledgeable responses, no high pressure sales, and set us up with a new machine that fit exactly what we were looking for. Smooth and seamless process from start to finish.”
“Arden was awesome and helped me pick out a gift for my dad, was respectful and funny with lots of stories to tell. Really nice guy to chat with, and they have a great selection here with good prices. Would highly recommend”
“Fleet Farm is a large, multi-purpose retail store that offers a wide range of products including farm supplies, tools, hardware, outdoor equipment, automotive items, clothing, home goods, and seasonal products. Overall, it provides a practical and convenient shopping experience, especially for customers who prefer having many different categories under one roof rather than visiting multiple specialized stores. One of the strongest aspects of Fleet Farm is its impressive product variety. The store is particularly useful for homeowners, farmers, outdoor enthusiasts, and DIY customers because it carries everything from basic household essentials to heavy-duty equipment. Whether you need tools for home improvement, supplies for farming and gardening, fishing and hunting gear, or automotive maintenance products, Fleet Farm generally has a reliable selection available. This wide inventory makes it a convenient one-stop shopping destination. Another positive feature is the store layout and organization. While the store is large and can feel overwhelming at first, the sections are generally grouped logically, making it possible to locate most items without too much difficulty once you become familiar with the layout. Seasonal sections are also well-stocked and frequently updated, especially during peak times like summer outdoor season or winter equipment needs. Customer service is typically friendly and helpful, with staff members who are generally knowledgeable about hardware, tools, and outdoor equipment. In departments like automotive, sporting goods, and farm supply, employees are often able to provide useful advice and product recommendations, which adds value for customers who may not be fully familiar with certain items.”
“Loved this place. Great customer service, friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable about the products!! Really nice equipment!! I would really recommend this place!! If you're looking to build your in home gym this is the place to go!! Thanks again!!”
“Scheels is almost always a great experience. Went this time to get football cleats and they were very limited on size 13 in higher end cleats. Great customer service as always!”
“Driving through town on my way to a cycling trip, I realized I forgot my cycling sleeves and stopped to buy some. I also decided to replace my cleats once there. Even though there were not any in stock, the bike shop manager Ian identified that they did have pedals that included my cleats and they weren't that much more expensive. He also mentioned that if I had a 2nd bike I could use the pedals for that which I certainly will! He also worked diligently to remove my warped cleats to make sure I could install the new ones before my ride. Thank you, Ian!”
“Amazing! Zack, Maverick & Brian helped us all the way gear up for our youth hockey goalie! I cannot express enough gratitude for this store, thank you so much!!!”
“Wonderful store. I stopped by about 20 minutes prior to closing time today. The owner could not have been nicer! He kindly helped me pick a gift for my daughter. In addition to a wide selection of clothes, outdoorsy things, etc upstairs, they have a great selection of consignment clothing downstairs which is well worth a look! I picked up a hoody from the store’s own brand. Will visit when I come back for sure!”
“Great service and selection. Nice to be and to try suits on in person instead of guessing at what fits. Always great finds in their clearance suits when we need to stock up!”
“My athlete received her jacket today-barely 3 weeks after ordering, in time for the holidays, which we did not expect at all! Thank you so much-she is delighted! From ordering, design, to delivery, excellent and individual customer service. Quality yolocal products. Friendly staff, going above and beyond for our choices to allow our daughter to represent her school and community! Thank you!”
“We’ve had two great experiences at Play it Again Sports while building our home gym. The store has a wide variety of like-new options and the owner is personable. We’ll always be sure to check here before buying new!”
“This was one of the best bookstores I've been to for a school of its size. Had a great selection of clothes AND novelty items. Came home with a nice bobblehead of Griff! The quality of apparel that was offered was pretty top notch. With the exception of maybe larger sizes, there should be no problem finding anything you're looking for or maybe didn't know you were looking for there!”
“Great location, lots of clothes and items to choose from, but I didn't find much I liked. Most of the designs I liked were the new polyester athletic material and I'm not a big fan of those. The cotton or vintage shirts were all weird designs that I didn't particularly like. If you like the polyester clothing, you'll be right at home with a huge selection. I ended up with a vanity plate for my car and am very happy with it!”
“I ordered a dress over the phone today from the Jordan Creek store and had the nicest assistant help me, I wish I would have remembered her name. Excellent service.”
“I had a great experience at the Lululemon store in Jordan Creek Mall on a busy Saturday. The team was incredibly welcoming and attentive without being pushy, which made shopping really comfortable. They took the time to help me find the right sizes and styles, and their product knowledge was spot-on. Would highly recommend this location based on my experience”
“Called about a specific brand & model of shoe size 12.5. She answered all my questions & got another clerk to go back & forth grabbing different shoes. Very impressed.”
“I came in not really even knowing where I needed to start or anything about clubs. I'm finally getting to that point where I'm semi-consistently par-ing holes, and Im playing with 20 year old clubs so I came in just to be like, whats up where do I go from here. The GM (I cannot remember his name, I wish I could he really helped me out) got me on the simulator and spent about an hour going through drivers and irons with me. Even if the clubs dont up the game, I feel like the information I gained in that hour with the guy was helpful. Keep up the good work. I'll be back in another 20 years. Haha”
The outdoor retailer plans to open a 100,000-square-foot store in College Station, Texas, in 2028. It'll sit along State Highway 6, north of William D. Fitch Parkway, next to a Costco and in front of the future South College Station baseball and softball complex. On Sept. 24, the College Station City Council approved a $10.84 million sale of 28 acres in a unanimous vote. Bass Pro gets about 14 acres for its store. Dallas-based Corinth Properties will build a mixed-use project with restaurants and an event plaza on the other 14.
Fan Outfitters aims to be the ultimate one-stop shop for local professional, college, and even high school team merchandise. The company's unique "hyperlocal" approach is the brainchild of its parent company Lids Sports Group. Just six months after launching, Fan Outfitters has already opened 12 locations in cities like Phoenix, Dallas, Oklahoma City, Lexington, and Tampa. The massive 5,500 square-foot spaces are stocked with jerseys, trading cards, replica helmets, and much more across 12-15 local teams.
