Had a great time here. They have a challenging 9 hole course with a couple pretty fun 18 hole courses. Its a little run down and would definitely be a 5 star if they did a bit of a facelift and maintenance. Would come again since the courses were fun.

My Grandson and I had the best time on the mini golf course. It had so many fun shots to make. The go carts was great too. I was traveling so they even let me bring my small dog on her leash to the course. We will go back!

They are open on the Outdoor Golfing & Go Karts but the Arcade games inside are closed due to Covid-19.Still had fun doing both activities with the kids and hardly anyone there which let us move at our own pace!

Well, when we started it was hard to figure out where we were supposed to start. Then, we finally got started and there was hardly any light to see where to hit the ball. They charge 10.00 per person which to me is way to high. I would rather and will go to Go USA in Murfreesboro. Its a lot cleaner and nicer and cheaper. GO USA is only 5.50 per person.

This place was very fun! My boyfriend and I did go karts as well as putt putt golf. The golf course was super cool but not well maintained. There were several areas were the bushes were so outgrown it felt like I was walking through a forest in the middle of Nashville. The water in the waterfall wasn’t running either which created lots of murky and unclean areas. When we went both the arcade and bumper cars were unfortunately closed. Thankfully, the race track was very fun. Overall, the staff was great and it was a fun venue to spend the afternoon at. Little pricy for what the place offers but the fun we had was well worth it!

My family has been coming here for 27 years give or take. As usual had a WONDERFUL time! The ONLY downside is that they have removed many of the benches to rest at. For older adults or people who are disabled like me it makes it difficult. Otherwise it is a AWESOME place to play miniature golf!

My granddaughter and I had a very fun time playing golf here because shes young and doesnt realize what this place used to look like. Its been many years since Ive been there but it is really falling down, with broken posts, weeds growing, leaves on the fairways, no water running in any of the streams and waterways, but instead dirty, pooled water holes here and there that look to be eaten up with algae. And you can see several golf clubs and a lot of balls thrown in the shallow pools. It is extremely, poorly kept up. Sad to see the courses that way. I would like to add that the young lady who was selling the tickets to play golf was extremely sweet and kind. And she had a nice smile.

Beware if you go! USE CASH! We were there twice on a recent trip. Had fun but 2 credit cards from 2 different banks that were used there had the info stolen and attempted to use elsewhere. Too much of a coincidence so be warned.

This place is completely run down and needs serious maintenance. It was very crowded today and they need to have security here, a group of young teens were hanging out in the red building in the middle of the put put course smoking marijuana and trying to cause a scene in front of my 2 young children. We will not be going back. The water areas are very nasty and the landscaping is out of control. The deck that is over by the frozen ice stand is in need of repair also, the railing is very week and rotting. I would advise people who are wanting to take young children to a put put course to stay away from here. It seems to be more of a teen hangout spot and not a kid friendly area.

My family was there today... we had fun the course was ok but could of been touched up..People were nice.. my main concern was the walk way.. it could of been more updated then what it was... half the walk ways was warped.. makes me wonder if there afraid of putting money into the place... looked like they replaced part of it when you first walk to the courses like maybe 20 feet..

Review №18

Would have given 4 stars but this place could really use some landscaping. There are steps to climb up and down to certain holes but the bushes are so over grown you have to try to make your way around them without falling over. The stagnant water that they have in ponds around the courses just collect bugs and stray balls. The water is green and algae filled. Also my son was right at the height to ride the gokarts but was still denied because his head didnt go OVER the line even though his head was AT the line which I felt was ridiculous. All video games were also out of commission. I wouldnt recommend this place for small children unless you want them to be disappointed.

Review №21

This place needs an overhaul. Very rundown. Little kids can get hurt on some of the broken steps and overgrown walkways. There was no water on the course except for the algae filled pond. The greens are very worn and there are ants everywhere. Not worth the money. The rest of it looks much better, but we didn’t do the bumper cars or go karts.

Mini golf courses need some TLC. Water in and around mini golf was nasty/gross and full of alge. The Go-Carts were ok... Also arcade is closed due to Corona but thats understandable.

This place was not advertised properly!! When we arrived we had trouble locating as lights were not even turned on outside ! Very small on inside and courses were not maintained overgrown shrubs that extended over walkways and the lighting that should have been there was busted out or no lightbulbs present at all leaving the course very dark !! Stream of water that I’m sure used to be gorgeous is now nasty with what appears to be mold or sewage -sooooo gross especially when you lose your golf ball in water -NASTY ! -trash everywhere and debris on putting greens !!! I WOULD NOT I REPEAT WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE for anyone !! -VERY POORLY MAINTAINED FOR FAMILY ENVIRONMENT !!!!!!

This is the most fun spot in Nashville! The golf course is like a beautiful garden. The karts are fast and they give you a long ride. You can let your child ride along in the seat next to you if theyre too young to drive. This is the real deal and easy to find as well. The owner does a great job of making sure everyone has a good time. Well be back!

Review №34

Just went today and had fun, mainly with gokarts. The mini golf was pretty bad as far as areas falling apart. The walkway was very unsafe, if you have little children, I suggest watching them closely. Mine almost fell numerous times. They should have utilized this time during Covid and did a major remodel. I wouldnt recommend and suggest people drive to Murfreesboro and check out GoUSA.

Review №37

We had a great time playing miniature golf there! It is a nice golf course with a few improvement opportunities... The green areas could be better maintained, cleaned, sticks removed, so that the golf ball would roll smoth. There was a bad smell (like wet carpet) in the inside area, where we get the tickets, ball and clubs. We intend to come back and see these things addressed, pls! It is such a fun entertainment! It just needs one person to swipe the areas, collect the trash and make sure its impeccable.

Review №38

Please do not go to this park. There is so much rotting wood, the steps are dilapidated, the water system is broken so there are pools of standing water where mosquitos are breeding like crazy. Concessions are almost non existent. The put put courses are so dangerous as the bridges are literally swaying when you walk across it. The only good thing about this place is the friendly staff.

Took 3 grandsons agrs 8, 9 & 11 and 2 adults. I hadnt been here in years and not much has changed. The what used to be beautiful landscaping, with water features and lights is now overgrown, run down and unkempt. We couldnt even walk on some paths because shrubs were grown blocking them. Things were broken and there were only a few employees working. To play one golf course it was $65. They did go carts which was and additional $45 The 3 for 1 deal that is advertised for $25 isnt offered because the bumper cars are not working so the only option is to pay separately. We also purchased 4 bottles of water which was $10. During the go carts, the attendant had to be notified twice when a car was stuck. His head was down the whole time on his phone. Once a child got out of the cart whilenthe thing was going and he didnt notice.Fun for golf and the go carts were a hit with the kids but too expensive and just not a good value for a family ot group.

I went here to this place today with my family and let me say that it is very understaffed the young lady that was there to take our order for services broke down in tears....I consoled her...because she was so overwhelmed by all the customers PLUS having to run another part of the facility... one lady even came to her upset because they had to wait so long...now....this place is surely has good business seeing all the people there so you can hire more workers....we still had a good time on the go karts...but customer service is always first...this is Nashville so show some pride in your community and your business!!!! GET MORE STAFF SPRING AND SUMMER IS COMING

Review №43

I dont understand some of the bad reviews on here. Is it possibly competitors trying to swoosh the competition? We took our church group here to enjoy ALL DAY of golf and go carts. They were doing updates when we were there as some issues I could see were being addressed. There is the best dessert place place near the end of the course so we got to stay in the area longer without bussing out everyone to cool off. I highly recommend this place for large groups and locals.

Golf Course has definitely seen better days, also really has no start or end so you don’t know where you’re going.Bumper karts weren’t even on and no one seems to have interest in them.The Go-Karts are the only thing giving this a 2 star. They were decent and you get a nice amount of laps.The staff and management are non existent. Poor girl at the counter was by herself seemed stressed and didn’t get any help when there was a line at the door. The staff that was there was chilling behind the counters goofing off and not helping whatsoever.

The mini-golf is pretty perfect for a place to hang out with friends. We got some beautiful pics in the evening, and it was a nice break from fast-paced Nashville. Lots of families and people of all ages seemed really happy to be there. Passed by the manager who said hello and seemed nice! And snow cones and cotton candy on the community patio after!

Review №59

Would give 0 stars but option not available. Near the Grand Old Opry. We went to snow cone stand and were over-powered by aroma of nearby filthy bathrooms. Fence around patio is in disrepair and potentially dangerous. Patio was filthy. Will never go again. A shame that this is a generally a tourist site - what an introduction to Nashville.

This place used to be a nice place to bring our family. But now the prices are a rip off for what you DONT get. The mini golf courses are falling apart. There were places that did not have any lights and very unsafe, there were over grown brushes everywhere that you had to walk around to get to the next hole. The wooden walkways had boards that we coming up and not safe to walk on. But we made the most of it and had a good time. Then everything went from bad to horrible. Once we got done with the mini golf we went to the go carts ( we already paid for it and did not want to disappoint our children). We were in line for over 45 minutes. And the reason why we were in line for so long is because all 5 of the kids working there kept jumping into the go cart and riding them instead of letting their paying customers get into them. They were horsing around and not being safe at all. One of them even took out a small child. Thankfully she was ok. There was no instructions on how to ride the go carts and they did not even bother to check to make sure everyone had there seat belts on. We will never go back there again. And it is a shame because this place could be a great family attraction if management actually cared about the place and their paying customers.

What a shame. There are 3 different golf courses, which was great, but the water wasnt working. You could smell the algae and some of the courses were set up where the ball would most likely go into the water. Getting the ball out of swampy water was just the worst. The place has potential, and it was probably gorgeous in its heyday

My kids love this place! And you cant beat the price, especially in Nashville! Though the facility is older and could use some updating, the staff is friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is family oriented and they do give rain checks if weather gets bad. We live locally and love having this place available to enjoy!

Completely unsafe activities and facility. The prices were the cheapest in town and we can see why. If you would like to make millions from a law suit, go here. Our group of 9 chose to ride the go-karts. The employees never checked to ensure our safety belts were buckled and tightened correctly. When we made our first lap around, the employees forgot to close the barrier gate put out at the end of the previous race to corral the karts. All the karts were the same speed and it felt like we were driving, not actually racing each other. During the race, a kart spun out and was stuck in the middle of the track for at least 2 of our laps. The employees never stopped any of the other karts to keep us from hitting them. When the race was finished, we pulled into the corral. There is no safety switch on the karts, so you can speed like a bat out of hell into the parking area. One younger child was rear ended HARD while she was trying to park. When we parked, people were not instructed to remain seated until all cars were parked. A SMALL CHILD ran out in front of a moving kart!!!! This place is an absolute shame and should not be in business until they come up with a safety contingency plan.

LOVED this place!! Had my 7 yr old granddaughter with me and we pushed my younger daughter out of the way half way through; and then, pushed her mom w/sister out of way on last lap to WIN! Granddaughter told me from the beginning that we had to come in first....We had a long way to go from the start! We came out last from start and it was a putter, but it warmed up! Im the BEST GRANDMA EVER!! Life is good!

It is a lot of fun but the fumes are horrendous for some reason on the go-kart track. Just be prepared to inhale a lot of exhaust and if you or a family member has breathing issues or asthma Id stay away from the go-kart area. The golf is fun and its a nice course. There is a great snow cone place in the middle of the course during the warmer months.

Review №77

Very disappointing conditions here, inside the building the carpets were dirty and covered in trash and crumbs. Three employees sitting behind the counter on their phones, the one that rang us out barely said three words to us. Outside was filthy with trash cans knocked over and garbage all over the place. Not to mention many of the wood structures were in disrepair and some of them seem like they are about to collapse. Not worth the money. Its a shame because this could be a really pretty, fun location but I wont be returning.

Review №78

The Go-Karts were poorly managed. Not to mention the Karts themselves were flinging rocks and fluids. The operator was driving in the opposite direction on the track and doing reckless circles weaving in and out of on coming Karts.No supervision with the bumping. It was more like bumper karts rather than go-karts. A child had his had out on the bumper rail while this was taking place, I thought there was going to me a medical accident.We ended up leaving and going to Music City Go-Karting.

Easy to lose ball in mini golf course, but water features are pretty cool and courses are challenging. We did the original course. The facility could use some rennovations for sure. The bumper cars were broken when we went which was a bummer, but the go kart experience was great. The line to buy tickets took a while as only 1 person was working so all in all an average experience.

Review №87

We took my stepson and we loved it. The go karts are all we did. Prices were not bad and some of the go karts are insanely fast. We rode several times. The guys on the track were super friendly and on one of our rides I ran out of gas and he came and got me, let me grab another cart and then gave us a free ride to make up for it. The bumper car area was really small but could have still been fun. They had an arcade but I didnt really pay attention. There is mini golf but again, I was hooked on the go karts and so was my step son so we didnt do it. Thanks yall. We had a blast.

Review №90

Staff was on phone and seem to sit at random spots inside the entire time we golfed. Course while once may have been great has been left to rot. Most of the vegetation was overgrowing into the course which brought many bugs,the wood paint was peeling and broken, many holes had dried water traps while other holes that should not have had water were flooded with water. Over 3 holes had their hole completely submerged and the piping that was suppose to connect parts of the course failed to delivery the ball. I would highly recommend finding another course to spend your time at.

Go carts were very dangerous. Teenagers were messing with the throttles on the carts and ramming into people making them spin. Workers werent paying attention; they were riding and also doing the same. Husband has a huge bruise on back of neck due to one of them ramming him. No instructions given to the riders. My sons seatbelt wouldnt latch...if he wouldnt have said something...the workers wouldnt have cared because they had already sent riders on track. Lights not turned on at night...workers didnt seem to know how to turn them on. Place was very run by teenagers, who couldnt care less about their job. When we brought up the problems and wanted a manager to talk to, we were told there wasnt anyone. Place needs major improvements. Stay away from this place.
