Set against a picturesque lakeside campground, Elements offers a series of Summer camp inspired games, multi-sensory areas to explore, art cars to ride, and adjustable camping options designed to recreate the most nostalgic moments from years gone by, with a rowdy spin. Wanes in the industry notwithstanding, the tuned-in audiophile can fret less about summer plans, knowing the exceptionally weird house and face-melting bass music dually await at Elements Lakewood, with a few extras along the way.
