🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families where all children meet the 48-inch height requirement — roughly age 7–8 and up for most kids. The skill-based obstacles reward older children and competitive adults equally. Younger or shorter siblings cannot join on-course, so plan accordingly. The seasonal and weekend-focused schedule requires advance trip planning. Bring cash.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Measure kids before visiting — the 48-inch height minimum is strictly enforced and shorter children cannot enter the course

⏰Bring cash; card payments are not accepted and the on-site ATM is your only alternative

🎟️Check the website before visiting — the course opens seasonally and is weather-dependent in early spring

Overview

Par-King at 21711 N Milwaukee Ave has earned recognition from the Travel Channel, Chicago Tribune, and USA Today for its one-of-a-kind obstacle design that goes far beyond standard mini golf. The 18-hole course demands genuine skill and attention — obstacles are mechanical, creative, and unlike anything at a typical putt-putt venue. All players must be at least 48 inches tall to enter the course.
