While this may be one of the few miniature golfs in the
greater Ft. Lauderdale area, it ranks right around
average in every category. We played the
“A” course at night one day and came back to play the “B” course during the
day. Overall the greens were in good
condition and though some of the cups were shallow, we had no bounce-outs,
which is always a plus. However, there
were a ton of loose bricks on the course and in sections the greens were not
very well swept. For most part the holes
played as one expected they would except for hole #4 on the “B” course. This hole is supposed to be designed so that
you putt it into the river and the water brings the ball down to the lower
green. However, the two balls we tried
to get in there stopped in the river and the third bounced out of the river
completely (because we tried to hit it harder to avoid it being stuck like the
first two). It was poor execution on
what is normally a fun twist. The “B”
course pays a little easier than the “A” course but neither are too
challenging, especially if you have played the course more than once. While some holes on each of the courses
showed signs of creativity (for an adventure style course), it didn’t carry
through to all the holes on the course and towards the end of the rounds the
holes started to look the same.
Overall the atmosphere was only average for the two courses
because the course didn’t put any effort into the little things (mostly because
the mini golf was secondary to the Pro Shop and Driving Range). The scorecards weren’t real scorecards,
rather they were just strips of paper.
The par was not listed on the scorecard.
In addition, the little stands at each hole that were supposed to show
the par for the hole were often missing or in various states of disrepair. The
free game is a “Plinko” style device, though it was only offered to us on one
of the two occasions we played. However,
the courses are spread out and easy to get around and the landscaping was
appropriate for a pleasant miniature golf experience. We’d play the course again if in the area,
but would not go out of our way to recommend it as a must play.
