Black Pearl Mini Golf — Attraction in Emerald Isle

Fun family experience. We went with kids ages 11-17 and everyone enjoyed it. The course is simple enough that it keeps the crowd moving, but challenging enough and with enough variety that it was not boring. The property is well maintained and the one employee we interacted with was friendly and helpful. We went with a group of 9 people: 4 adults & 5 children. We split into two smaller groups as suggested by the employee and the course took us about 40 mins to complete. The cost was $12.50 per person. The golf cart parking is smart but was not labeled clear enough for us to realize that was where we were supposed to park until we were leaving. The only marking is a capital “C” painted in the spots. We accidentally took car spots with our golf carts. Look for the small spaces with the C if you’re going by golf cart(see attached photo). It was a busy night when we were there and felt a little bad upon leaving when we realized we had unnecessarily taken spots from cars, causing people in cars to have to park in the lot next-door and walk a...

The course is fun and all but the first time we came the open sign was on but doors were locked and not a worker to be found, we had to call three times for someone to show up to let us in to play. When we finally got through to someone they hung up on me when I told them we came to play a round. We let it go. The second time we came we had a group of 7 and the girl working said it was completely fine for us to play, and then another guy showed up and cut the music off on us and told us he turned the music off because there were too many of us playing.. even though their employee allowed us to and we were the only people playing on the course so it was completely dead. Then he shut the lights off on us before we even we able to exit the premises. Rude and unapologetic completely. Definitely will not be back. Very unorganized business. A shame. AND THE...

Wasn’t planning on leaving a review as my husband said “Nobody reads reviews for mini golf”, however my 7 year old piped up, “we should leave a review anyway, it will let our anger out.” So, here is my anger…Update your online hours. You stop taking golfers at 10:00 pm not 10:30 pm as your website states. I had to deal with the wrath of 6 over tired, over sunned, over sugared kids (I know, sounds like bad parenting, but hey, it’s vacation) and one 87 year old grandmother who braved mini golf for the first time in 10 years…albeit, she was much sweeter then the 7 year old. We have golfed here before, and as a whole it is a decent, well maintained course struggling with...
