Everything under one roof
Come for one game.
Stay for the whole night.
Open Bowling
Walk in any time we’re open. Lanes are rented by the hour, so a group of six splits one lane and bowls as much as they want. Bumpers on request, always free.
Hours & ratesLeagues
Mixed, scratch, seniors, youth and family doubles. Come with a team or come alone — we place individual bowlers on teams that need people every season.

What we serveTwo questions, one answer
Are we open when you want to bowl?
Pick a night, a time and your headcount. We’ll tell you whether the doors are open, how many lanes your group needs, and exactly what to say when you call.
Open hours
When the pins are up
Hours are the same every week. Holidays and tournament nights can shift things — a quick call is always the surest answer.
Lane rental is hourly. Last lanes go out shortly before closing, so give yourself an hour to bowl.
Why bowlers keep coming back
A neighborhood house, not a chain
Valley Bowl sits in Parkwood Village on Highway 145 — close enough that Madera families have been bowling here for years, small enough that the person who checks you in probably knows your league average.
You rent time, not games
An hour on a lane covers your whole group. Fast bowlers get more games; slow ones get more laughs. Nobody gets nickel-and-dimed per frame.
Built for families
Bumpers go up free on request, lightweight house balls are on the racks, and Sunday afternoons are calm enough for first-timers.
A real league house
Sanctioned team play, handicap and scratch divisions, and secretaries who’ll find you a spot even if you show up without a team.
Food without leaving your lane
The snack bar runs all open hours, and the tables sit right behind the approach.
League bowling
Find your night
Every league below takes new bowlers. You don’t need a team, an average, or your own ball — just a night that fits.
League nights and openings change each season — call (559) 674-0951 to confirm before you plan around one.
