This is seemingly the only mini-golf place in New Orleans, but thankfully, they offer a pretty sweet deal. The course is a little cramped, but there's 2 sides (New Orleans Course and Louisiana Course), and it's quite affordable. For 2 people to play BOTH courses, we paid a little over $30.
We only ended up playing the New Orleans side, as it was pretty busy, and there's not a lot of standing or sitting room to wait between holes. I would recommend going in off-hours. The New Orleans side had little fun facts at each hole and several large themed structures. There's one hole on that side that offers up a pretty solid chance that your ball will end up in water, and when mine did I couldn't locate the net (it wasn't in its holder). Luckily, I had 2 balls as we had originally planned on doing both sides, but otherwise, it would have been quite a pain to get the ball back.
As most mini golf courses go, this one really isn't friendly for mobility device users. There are no large fans running, so if you go in the hotter hours, prepare to SWEAT. As I mentioned, there's very little room to wait between holes. There is ample parking, they sell drinks inside and there was a snow-cone cart outside open until 8 PM. The course is located in the City Park. There are bathrooms inside, only accessible...
Read moreI'm not sure what the plan is for renovations for this course.. but they desperately need it. Almost every hole we played the green was torn up. we understood the water was gone because of maintenance which is fine, but the state of this course is laughable! Which is sad since it's the only putt-putt place around. The people working at the front desk said 2 words to us when we went in so customer service was lacking as well. We went on a Saturday night so expected it to be busy- but besides what is posted on the rules there was a group of over 15 people playing together (says the max is 5 on a card I believe). This group had 5 other groups waiting to play through and backed up the whole course. After 15 minutes of waiting to play one hole we just picked a few holes from the other course to finish our round. Just overall not the best experience and with so many wonderful things to do in the city it is simply not worth the money...
Read moreTo preface, I only give one star due the state of the grounds itself. My family typically really enjoys coming here but the last year or so they have been in need of massive renovations. They have signs up about the water features repairs (those have been under repair for months now), but the holes themselves, the "greens" are completely torn to shreds, in some places they have outside mats to cover up where the greens are so destroyed that without the mat you prob wouldn't be able to make your initial putt, then many of the greens at the holes are torn apart too, some places the actual brick or wood parts that add a challenge are falling apart, and then they're infested with ants -- that bite. For this be inside City Park feels embarrassing. I'm hoping that they are going to do some...
