Topic: Mini Golf Opinions

1	Doobie Mon 5/5/2008 12:16p	I'd love to hear anyone's opinions on which of the WDW mini golf courses they prefer and the pros and cons of each, similar to what's being discussed in the Water Park thread. I know Mini Golf isn't as big of a decision, but it is a fun break from the parks during a WDW vacation. Doobie.

Not sure I remember which is which but the one geared to "adults" is a tough course. Obviously you can play cheaper mini golf off property but they are fun and certainly Disney quality. I'll try to catch the Winter Summerland...or whatever it is called...next time!

It also makes a lot of sense to me to have it next to Blizard Beach - it makes a fun diversion during a day at the water park. Must admit that despite being a golfer I've never played the Fantasia Fairways course - it has always been Fantasia Gardens for us. Still a fun experience but I don't find so much to look at. It is cute but lacks the humor of Winter Summerland.

Winter/Summerland is cute to and in a good location to combine with BB, but I do not find the theming as much to my taste as Fantasia. But both are very good, and our fav mini golf anywhere.
7	Mr X Tue 5/6/2008 3:37a	Exactly how many mini-golf courses do they have? Are people talking different options at one place here? I always thought there was only two "places" at WDW to play mini-golf?? What are the prices like (just curious)?
8	-em Tue 5/6/2008 4:11a	Yup there are just 2 courses but Fantasia gardens has traditional mini golf and then the fairways which is like "real" golf just on a small scale... I actually have played neither... I know I know and I even like mini golf...
9	Doobie Tue 5/6/2008 4:20a	Hi X: Fantasia Gardens has 2 courses, a traditional mini golf and the fairways which are modeled on real golf with sand traps and sloping greens. Winter Summerland also has 2 courses - the summer side and the winter side. Both are traditional mini golf. Tickets are $12.52 for adults and $10.39 for children 3-9 (all prices include sales tax). A second round of golf can be played the same day for 50% off. You can read more and see pics here: http://www.laughingplace.com/P...Golf.asp Doobie.
