Narrative:
Cleared to land. On smooth touchdown on centerline with left crosswind correction input got blown farther left by gust. Plane slewed left and then right as I attempted to correct for gust into calmer winds. When plane slewed hard right I attempted go around but was unable to maintain climb and suitable directional control. Placed plane back on runway to left of centerline with energy going off the runway the left. Exited runway to the left and went over culvert towards a taxiway. Went further off the left of [the taxiway] and came to rest in the ramp area. Notified tower all aboard were ok and then ran shutdown checklist after facing plane into the wind.
