Not a bad little course is the
best way to describe this one. While there isn’t much in the way of theming,
the course is nestled nicely in a grove of trees and is in good condition. The holes were not too difficult and there
are plenty of aces to be had once you figure out how some of the holes break.
The carpet is a little thicker than most holes and creates a few different
breaks but other than the one two-tiered hole it’s fairly hard to get over a 3
on any of the holes. The bricks were all in good condition with no spaces
between them, giving you consistent bounces.
However, there are some areas where the course relies on wood edging but
it was surprisingly consistent and gave the bounce you needed most of the time.
Given the low cost to play (you
can also play again for ½ price) and the overall good state of the course this
is a course you won’t mind spending time on.
There’s not a ton on the entertainment side but it’s a good course for
friendly competitions and would be fairly easy for kids to play.

Course seems simple but I found some of the holes to play in a tricky manner. Average creativity, good, quite location, well landscaped. Much better maintained than most mini-golfs associated with a driving range/sports complex. Staff could have been slightly more engaged.
