The Best Mini Golf Courses in Canada

When it comes to summer fun for all ages, it’s tough to beat miniature golf for accessibility and affordability. At the really great mini golf courses, there’s enough to see and do to keep most of our littles entertained for at least an hour, especially if your kids enjoy hitting things with clubs then climbing on them.

An afternoon of playing a round or two of mini golf is great because everyone can play at their own pace or all together, giving your group space or togetherness, depending on how the summer, day, or hour is going.

Travelling this summer? Be sure to put some of these great courses on your list. Most are outdoors but sometimes Canadian summers can mean uncooperative weather so look for the * to denote indoor facilities.

Best Mini Golf Courses in Western Canada

Riptide Lagoon, Parksville, B.C.

Dragon’s Tale Blacklight Mini Golf, West Edmonton Mall, Edmonton, AB

Slay the bad guys and save the dragons one putt at a time as you make your way through this 18-hole sensory experience. For something less intense, try the nearby Professor WEM’s Adventure Golf, better for littles who might find Dragon’s Tale too scary. |  Dragon’s Tale Blacklight Mini Golf

Winsport Canada Olympic Park, Calgary, AB

Location, location, location. That’s what they say about mini golf, right? Another great course with a view, this time of the Rocky Mountains, is at Winsport Olympic Park, home of the Calgary 1988 Winter Olympics. After you put your clubs away, check out the zipline, mountain bike trails, summer bobsleigh, scenic chair lift, waterslide and more, all on the same site. | winsport.ca

Best Mini-Golf Courses in the Prairies

*Market Mall, Saskatoon, SK

Who needs California when you’ve got Saskatoon? Styled after the famous Pebble Beach golf course, this mini-me is located inside the Market Mall and features lush greens, tropical vegetation, a stream and fish pond. Stock up on trip essentials at Safeway and Shoppers Drug Mart, then play a round before heading back out on the road. | saskatoonmarketmall.com

*U-Puttz Amusement Centre, Winnipeg, MB

They say there are plenty of fish in the sea and they’re right when it comes to the front nine holes of this glow-in-the-dark blacklit course. Putt around dolphins and sharks before blasting to the past where the T-Rex and Long Neck Brontosaurus await you on the back nine. Laser Tag, bumper cars and an arcade (sigh) round out the list of activities in this amusement centre. | u-puttz.ca

Best Mini Golf Courses in Ontario & Quebec

Timber Creek Golf & Family Fun Centre, Stouffville, ON

Just 30-minutes north of Toronto you’ll find Timber Creek, located on a beautiful 35-acre nature park. Rushing waterfalls, a picturesque pond, batting cages, huge jumping castles and an air-conditioned clubhouse make this a great spot for family fun. Want to really tire the kids out? Take advantage of its late closing (10:30 p.m. in July and August). | timbercreekgolf.ca

Cascades Putting Course, Blue Mountain Resort, Grey County, ON

If you think miniature golf is supposed to be small, this might not be the place for you. The Cascade Putting Course considers itself “as big as mini golf gets.” Situated at the base of the Niagara Escarpment, the course’s best feature is its natural surroundings and panoramic views. | bluemountain.ca

Cascades Golf, La Prairie, QC

Roughly 15 minutes outside Montreal you’ll find picturesque and long-standing Cascades Golf. Known for its beautiful scenery and lack of tacky décor (for a mini putt place), Cascades is not the biggest but it’s definitely one of the prettiest. After your round be sure to pop next door to the legendary Ice Cream Jonathan for some cold, creamy goodness. | cascades-golf.com

These dazzling, glow-in-the-dark, blacklit courses are a complete sensory experience.
