Mr. Tee with an EGG-citing new review! Egg Harbor Mr. Tee with an EGG-citing new review! Egg Harbor Fun Park’s multi-colored surfaces and classic obstacles make it a solid mini golf option in the center of Door County, Wisconsin. A pleasant spot that is only slightly marred by those pesky metal-rimmed cups. A few classic features and a variety of game play more than make up it!

Needed to get up this review of Rainbow Falls mini Needed to get up this review of Rainbow Falls mini golf in Myrtle Beach from a bit back before the course changes too much more. The defunct course review now up on the site documents the facility a few years ago before some already questionable renovations by the new owners. This is one of the oldest and most classic looking courses still operating in Myrtle Beach.
