This course is a
brand new Harris course. It looks a lot
like any other Harris course with the red bricks and dark green mats. This course, however, is a lot shorter than
many others we have played and most of the holes aren’t that hard due to the
short distances. The course is very
clean and well landscaped. There are no
bushes or shrubs that interfere with putting.
It’s nice to see such a well maintained mini golf course at an
entertainment complex that might not consider it the primary revenue
producer. One pet-peeve that we have is
the rubber starting mats, though this was easily avoided because there is
plenty of tee-off space before the bricks begin, and the mats were not glued
down and could be moved. With the ample
tee space we were also able to lengthen the course a bit for ourselves by
moving our starting point further back.
There are also flags in the holes, which seems to be an unnecessary
addition to any miniature golf course.
The only real problem we encountered was that the water was not running
on the course, and on one of the holes it was possible
to putt into the water and the ball would be carried across a grate and land
close to the hole (see the picture below).
This was not as easy to do with no water to carry the ball. Overall we did enjoy playing this course, but
we would probably not go out of our way to get there. This is a good place to bring the kids if you
live locally, especially since the price is relatively cheap for a course these
days and it’s possible to make a day out of it with all the other activities
the place offers.

The alligator stone was cool… …but the lack
of water was not.
A tough shot, but Putt’s
cheering for you to make it
