Best Mini-Golf at WDW for DW and myself?

[jaysue]

Two adults - both AP holders so we get a nice discount

Which mini-golf is the best for two not so great mini-golf players?

We are having dinner at Jiko's beforehand but location whether near the Swan or near BB is not important - the experience is more important

Thanks for the input!

thanks

We have played all 4 course recently. Winter Summerland has 2 courses-- both are very cute with a Christmas theme (one wintry and one beachy). They are VERY easy-- there were probably 10-12 holes-in-one for each course for our party of 4! But cute and fun. Fantasia Gardens has one traditional mini-golf course (forgot it's name) which is pretty hard but very fun. The other course is the Fairways course. It has astroturf "greens" like a typical mini-golf course, but the holes are laid out like a real golf course with sand trpas and water hazards and so forth. This course was hard but we really liked it best.

As to which would be best for you-- hard to say. We are average to slightly-below average mini-golf players but found the harder courses to be the most fun. We really liked the Fairways course and will certainly play again when we are down in March. I would say you can't go wrong with any of them, but if you are looking for cute and easy, go for either course at Winter Summerland. If you are looking for cute but hard, go to the traditional mini golf at Fantasia Gardens. For a challenge, try the Fairways course.

Have fun

We have played the 3 mini-golf courses. The fourth course at Fantasia (where you putt with sand traps) is not mini-golf (according to the people working the register).

The courses at Winterland/Summerland are easier (we have a DD8 so that is a consideration). Fantasia's mini-glof has always been busier (maybe because you can walk to it from the Swan/Dolphin). I also think it has less theming.

We learned the hard way this past April - Fantasia has almost no shade!! Bring lots of sunscreen and water if it is a hot day. Winterland/Summerland has some trees and felt cooler (we played both the same day within a hour).

I like the photo ops at Winterland/Summerland.
