It was a clean and fun place to play mini golf yet still a little challenging. My family and I enjoyed he course.

There are a number of mini gulf places along the strip. The story line and train make this one slightly more unique than the others. My 10 year old and 13 year old had fun and the prices weren't as high as one might expect at a tourist attraction. The holes are probably similar to those elsewhere with different obstacles... More

Clean mini golf course, not too complex, easy for kids. Played on a weekday afternoon and the kids were free if they use the plastic oversized putters. Fun pirate motif, includes a hole on the Gold course aboard the pirate ship. The best part was the train ride to the top of the course, very pleasant surprise for the kids!

/We went a groupof 6 of us. We are here off season so when we drove in at 8pm we were not sure if they were still open. The owner/manager was so amazing! He stayed open and fired up the train so we could have the whole experience. The greens were beautiful. Very clean and well layed out. We will... More

You get to ride a train to the starting point of the course -- how do you top that!? :) During the summer, the lines can get very long for this in the evenings. If you can stand the sun/heat I would recommend you go during the day or early evening. Otherwise, you are playing on top of each other... More

Have stopped here several times - the kids love that you have to take a short train ride to get the the golf course. Lots of cute little side attractions along the way.

Me and my two kids had so much fun during an off-peak day, playing putt putt golf. They have an amazing property with two courses. It almost feels like you're in the middle of a Disney attraction with how well the course is put together. There is no kitsch or cheese attached to this attraction, as so many putt putt... More

This is a fun mini golf course but it is always crowded. Go before dinner or after 9pm. Good for a medium sized group.

The place was a little pricey, but similar to others in the area. The scenery was really cool, but the holes could have been a little more creative. A lot of them were flat and straight, not much of a challenge. The train ride to the top was the best part.

Nice facility, well kept, good decor, but as has been said on previous reviews, the holes themselves are pretty boring, many are flat and straight. Actually a fair challenge in terms of real golfers but lacking the fun of mini golf. Other than that its a pleasant couple of hours though.
