Kniess' Miniature Golf — Attraction in Ross Township

Lived here for 10 years (husband is born and raised) and we have somehow never been to Kniess's Mini Golf! It's right off of Babcock Blvd, but the sign is small and old, therefore hard to see, but there are two small parking lots. There are also bathrooms! There are two courses - the Creek Course and the Classic Course. We did the creek course because it had the moving obstacles. We went around 6PM on a Thursday in July so it was relatively quiet - about 3 other groups on our course (they are open until 11, so it probably gets busier when the sun goes down). Each hole on the Creek course is themed with obstacles - some are motorized (like a Roulette Wheel that determines the par you get on that hole!). Lots of trees, so we were pretty shaded most of the time, but there are plenty of resting spots. They do sell bottled H20 and a couple of other drinks for cheap. It took about 45 minutes to complete the Creek Course (might take longer at night or on weekends, depending on the crowd). I already want to go back at night to see...

Looking for Kniess' Golf, it's next to the Sheetz, you turn at the shark. We did 36 holes, both the classic and the creekside courses. The cost is only $10 for both per person (good value). Each hole has a theme with a nice mix of plants and cool eclectic decorations. Most holes are fairly long and challenging, but lots of fun. We went at night and lighting was both good and bad. Some lighting was out but I'm sure would be fixed promptly. They really do keep the place nice. Overall a very fun and unique mini golf course :) Just remember to bring cash, Highly Recommended !

Just visited Kniess' Golf again tonight. My wife had a token for a free game (get a hole in one on the 18th) either course. We did 36 holes again, we had a blast! All lighting had been fixed and they were actually blowing debris off the courses while we were there. And wouldn't you know, my wife got another token, this time on the other course. Again, they keep the place really nice, Highly...

The Pebble Beach of mini golf. My wife and I have played courses from Ocean City to Copper Mountain Colorado and Kniess's is utterly unique. The owner/designer puts incredible detail into each setting, especially the "creek course". Unlike most courses, while your wait for your partner(s) to finish a hole, you can entertain yourself exploring the creative randomness of antique signs, photos, memorabilia, bowling balls and bumper cars. You'll find unique mechanisms, like the roulette wheel that assigns you a score by chance. And the "pastoral scene"--complete with "farm stand", barn and cows--across the creek is just surreally charming. A great place to play on a...
