Fun Family Destination Yelp, June 2024

This place is such a fun family destination in Catalina! Take a few hours to play the 18 hole course in a picturesque setting. Skip the botanical garden because you will see more flowers here. We had so much fun with our 7 month old since we adults have not played mini golf since we were children. It's a challenging putt putt course but you won't find any windmills or machinery. It's very old school and classic.

Absolutely awesome & affordable Yelp, April 2024

Absolutely awesome thing to do when you're in the island. Fun golf course, nice person at the desk, and an affordable way to spend an hour in Avalon. Very conveniently located and also quite pretty. If we ever go to Avalon again, we will 100% be mini golfing here again. ;)

18 Fun Challenging Holes TripAdvisor, October 2025

No gimmicks or cutesy, carnival-type holes on this well-planned, high-quality, old-school miniature golf course. 18 fun, challenging holes in a lovely setting. Customer service was friendly & helpful. Will definitely return on our next visit to Avalon.

Shaded by native plants & shrubs TripAdvisor, June 2025

This miniature golf course was so much fun! It was a break from the other tourist activities, and a chance to laugh at ourselves, by trying to putt the golf balls around and through interesting ‘mazes.’ Not your typical “windmills and clown faces,” you are walking in a mix of shade and sun, from one hole to the next, surrounded by native plants and shrubs. We even briefly interacted with the family ahead of us on the course, and laughed and strategized with one another on how to play that hole! Well worth the price!

A Quiet Morning TripAdvisor, May 2022

Arrived at 9 am on a Sunday and had the place to ourselves! It is a challenging 18-hole miniature golf course. Each hole is uniquely designed with landscape (no buildings such as windmills). Each hole is more challenging than the previous one. We found a few "lost" golf balls along the way, so we played them at the 18th hole.
