I love putt putt (miniature golf? What's the correct name? I feel ill-prepared to write this review now), and had never heard of this place until yesterday. It was described to me as "the Pebble Beach of putt putt courses," and, i can honestly say, it did not disappoint (I had to google Pebble Beach to make the comparison, but that's a minor note. It rang true).
I normally mini golf at Swings and Things in Olmsted Falls, so I'm used to decorative holes with fancy obstacles and castles, windmills, etc. This course did not have any of those bells and whistles, which was a nice change. There were a number of holes in which, if you overshot, you would hit your ball into the water - but that's why they have nets! It made it a little more fun, because we got to combine putt putt AND fishing into one outing! Two for the price of one!
Really, though, this course was challenging but fun. We had a competition going on in which the loser would buy ice cream, and I was playing against someone who regularly golfs. He shot 8-over par, which can give you a bit of an indication as to the skill level needed to play this course well. I shot 27 over. I lost. But it was fun!
I would definitely recommend trying this place out. When you turn your ball in at the end, you can win coupons for things like a free soda, slushie, or bag of chips. Always a fun bonus! It's a nice course if you want to hone your putt putt skills and don't feel the need to play on a cutesy course.
I'll end on this note - last time I was at Swings and Things, I wiped out on one of the bumps in the course and ripped my knee open. I emerged from this course with nothing more than a bruised ego and some free snacks. You do the math.
