getting to mini golf

[LovinPooh]

Just realized it was part of the WPM option on the tix. Which one do you prefer and is it worth the time? Also, when BB is closed in the winter for refurb, do they still run buses to get there?

The minigolf at BB was a blast! We didn't make to to Fantasia Gardens on our last trip, we'll be hitting that one up over the winter. I called Disney a few days ago asking about the referb at BB this winter and was told that the minigolf would be closed for the same period, which is understandable due to it's location.

I've done both, and prefer "Winter Summerland" (Blizzard) over Fantasia.

A few notes about how your WP&M credits work that I learned on this last trip...you can use them any day at any venue, but only ONCE per day for said venue.

In other words, if you do the Winter Course at Winter/Summerland, and then want to do the Summer Course, you will either have to wait for another day, or pay. However, they did honor the "second round" price for me and my kid when we did it, and it cost 12 bucks for both of us combined, iirc.

The Summer Course, I think, is the better of the two, mostly due to the closing holes. The rest of the holes are themed differently, but pretty much replicas of each other.

Hope this helps!

Thank you!!
Good to know that winter summerland will be closed.


I have only used WPM at DisneyQuest and BB on 2 seperate days. Let me clarify if you all dont mind... I can do DisneyQuest and minigolf is same day, right? It would just take 2 credits off??

Yes. You could do 2 WPM options in one day. You could do 3 in one day. Here's an example: water park, then mini golf, then DQ.

1. With the WPF&M option you can do one round at WSL and one round at FG per day, but each round must start before 4:00pm.

2. If it is between January 6 and March 2, when BB is closed, ask the Transportation Coordinator at your resort for which bus to take for WSL.

This is incorrect. Winter Summerland Mini Golf doesn't close just because Blizzard Beach closes for annual refurb. Read Cheshire Figment post, #2 (below) about transportation.

thank you for all the help!
I am excited to do this! I never realized that WPM was only $22 or so more when you had PH. DS is thrilled to go to DQ. DD wants to go to TL. But I am not sold on the water park lol. I am happy to use up the credits with golf and DQ where I stay dry lol. Such a party pooper I am...

getting to Fantasia... how do you all recommend getting there? I have boated to the Swan from HS and didnt see anythign that would lead me to it.

I have the water parks and more on my tickets for the 1st time this year. If we go to BB and then go over to WSL to golf will we be able to do both of these in 1 day?

Yes. You can do more than one water parks options in one day.
You could go to BB, then WSL and use 2 WPF&M options in one day.
You could go to BB, then WSL, then DQ, and use 3 WPF&M options in one day.

The WPF&M options are entries, not days like theme park are designated. You can go to a theme park, then use a WP option same day without using Park Hopper.

Here's directions. Walk along the front of the Swan toward the Dolphin pool area. At the end of the Swan building the sidewalk abruptly turns left, and you'll be walking along the side of the Swan. Follow the sidewalk to the street (Epcot Resorts Blvd.) and cross (there's a cross walk). Fantasia Gardens is across the street. There is a parking lot there if you have a car.

I have a helpful aerial shot, but it's not showing up (sorry, computer mystery).
