So fun! Great place to take the kids or go for a date. They also have snacks & beverages up at the counter. Will come again!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with kids old enough to navigate an outdoor course independently. The riverside setting and water-integrated holes make it more visually engaging than standard mini golf. Parents with toddlers should supervise carefully around sections with loose perimeter bricks. Pair with the adjacent playground and river walk for a full outing.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Staff actively manage group sizes to keep the course moving — walk-ins are generally accommodated
⏰Combine with the adjacent playground and river walk for a multi-hour family outing
đŸŽŸī¸Free parking is available directly next to the course
🚗Watch young children around holes with loose perimeter bricks — a flagged safety concern

“An 18-hole mini golf course situated directly next to the river. Lots of parking, right next to the golf course. The holes are fun and involve flowing water, also offering scenic views of the river; the nearby playground and river walk make for a great combination.”

“Fun minigolf in a great park. Interesting course with good hazards. Also, the staff tries to keep group size small so that you don't get stuck waiting. Snack bar is great, too. Reasonable prices for a park snack area.”

“Beautiful setting for mini golf! 18 holes set adjacent to the river. Super reasonable prices and very friendly staff. Course is fun, but could use some upkeep. Like many courses, some holes are missing perimeter bricks which can be annoying as your shot would have remained in otherwise. Also quite a few loose bricks which can be an issue for little ones stepping on them. But overall nice stop. It can get crowded as there are several other things to do at the park, but there is ample parking.”
