Rarely get to visit mini golf built before 1950, b Rarely get to visit mini golf built before 1950, but we stumbled upon Rio Nido Pee Wee Golf by chance in the Sonoma Valley and had to document this course that was built in 1948. It’s still open & run by volunteers in the community to this day. Tucked between redwoods near the Russian River, this charming lil course was one we were glad to visit and hope to actually play at some point. More photos and words by Mr. Tee over on the site for your holiday weekend enjoyment! #MiniGolf #PeeWeeGolf #SonomaValley
Scale of Stingers is wild! In advance of the AMA t Scale of Stingers is wild!

Jumping back a bit with this review of Congo Falls Jumping back a bit with this review of Congo Falls Lost City course on the Ocean City boardwalk on the Jersey Shore. Mr. Tee was joined by pals from The Putting Penguin and O-Street Mini Golf to navigate this adventure golf course that had strong Indiana Jones vibes. big apes and lots of fun features throughout the course. Reminded in this review how many fun courses are spread out across the Jersey Shore and definitely want to get back to play the other 2 courses in this facility. #MiniGolf #OceanCity #JerseyShore #Golf
An absolute stunner! The Adam course at Bowling BR An absolute stunner! The Adam course at Bowling BRNO is one of the most unique mini golf experiences in the world. Luxurious, challenging, fun, massive, and visually pleasing. Hits all the marks of what makes a superb course. Fitting to review (see more on the site!) this today when pals are competing on this course. All of the courses at Bowling BRNO combine to make this one of the best facilities for adventure golf in the world but this is Mr. Tee’s favorite there. Bravo! #minigolf #BRNO #adventuregolf
Drive By review of Mr. Tee’s visit to the Putters Drive By review of Mr. Tee’s visit to the Putters mini golf experience at Urban Playground in Manchester, UK is now ready to enjoy! Unique tech-forward putting experience that feels custom-made for a group outing. Three different 9-hole courses with circus, carnival and “virtual escape” themes for you and your pals to enjoy. The proprietary putters and balls are like nothing we’ve seen before and you can use them in these fun environments where you’re trying to score more points than the others in your group. #MiniGolf #Manchester #UrbanPlayground #CrazyGolf

Also know to the public as Ädventyrsgolfen Granlo, this club has thousands of annual members who enjoy this beautiful course in an idyllic setting on nearly a daily basis. Built by CityGolf and immaculately maintained by the Söderlund family and members. Tom älskar den här banan. Hole-in-One #MiniGolf #Sweden #CityGolf #Sundsvall
Professional baseball meets mini golf! The Milwauk Professional baseball meets mini golf! The Milwaukee Brewers set the bar high for miniature golf at professional sports facilities.

Swing by if you’re out at a ballgame or just bring your own putter and take a few laps around. #MiniGolf #Milwaukee #Brewers #MLB

The world of trees, insects, and the environment a The world of trees, insects, and the environment are explored in this fun mini golf course at the Morton Arboretum in Chicagoland.
