2012 Update
As you can tell by the ratings above, very little has changed on this course in the six years since we’ve last played it and that’s a good thing. Comparatively we think the difficulty dropped off a bit but not by a noticeable amount. While the mats were a little worn and fast there were no spots where the concrete was showing through and the wear didn’t interfere with any of our putts. All of the obstacles were still in good working condition and the landscaping was excellent. There is plenty of room between all the holes and there is no shrubbery that gets in the way of any putts (or attracts any bees). The course still has the rubber starting mats (but it is easy enough not to use them) and the metal cups, though they only messed up one putt on this day. A strange feature we noticed is that the posts you are supposed to use as a flat surface for the scorecard were covered in carpet as well, making for an uneven, rather than even, surface. We weren’t sure exactly that the purpose of that was. One last point to mention is that the price for a round is extremely reasonable for minigolf these days, costing less than $6 if you play during the day. There are very few courses around that offer that sort of value combined with such a pleasurable playing experience.
