Adventure Awaits at Our Mini Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long does it take to mini-golf 18-hole?

About 50-60 minutes for a group of 4-5 players to golf the entire 18 holes at a comfortable pace. For additional players, add 4-5 minutes for each additional group of 4-5 players.

How ABOUT IF I HAD A LARGER GROUP?

For additional players, add 4-5 minutes for each additional group of 4-5 players.

Timing Examples:

Group of 20 players (4 groups of 5 players):
- First group of 5 players (60 minutes)
- Plus, 3 additional groups at 5 minutes per group (+15 min)
- Approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes for all 20 players to mini-golf 18 holes
  - From first player starting to last player finishing
Group of 40 players (8 groups of 5 players):
- Approximately, 1 hours and 35 minutes for 40 players

Larger group yet? Feel free to contact us for groups (80+ players) as we may have the ability of running a PRIVATE "shotgun start" (if we have availability and you are willing/able to arrive prior to our general public hours). This would limit the amount of time players would have to wait around for others to finish. With this scenario, everyone would finish at approximately the same time by starting each group out on a different hole and everyone would play simultaneously through their 18 holes. This may require a private hourly minimum fee (offset by the price paid for each player). For more information, please email us.

Are Reservations Required to Mini GOlf?

Nope. If you're a casual golfer looking to have to have a little fun with a few friends, or coming for some family time...just come whenever it works for you! We typically operate First Come, First Served upon arrival (no reservations).

Do I need reservations if I'm BRINGING a GROUP?

For a Group (20+ players) -- letting us know of your planned arrival time is PREFERRED (but still not required).

Feel free to use our GROUP BOOKING LINK to notify us of your planned arrival time. Upon your scheduled arrival and check-in, you will be added into the tee-off line and sent off to golf as quickly as possible (not usually more than 5-15 minutes).

**For our Birthday Party Package -- RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED**

Can I bring my own putter?

Absolutely, we are happy to have you bring your own putter! We do prefer you use our golf balls, since they float and there is water in play.

What happens if the weather is inclement for my GROUP or BIRTHDAY PARTY?

It's Minnesota and we're kind of known for unpredictable weather! We do our best to post closures to our social media sites. As long as it is safe and comfortable to golf, we plan to be open! If the weather was unsafe to be outside to golf, we would need to reschedule for a different date.

Unfortunately we have ONLY outdoor space (and little space indoor to accommodate a weather delay). Since mini-golfing is an outdoor event, if the weather isn't safe enough to be outside, you likely would need to reschedule for a future date.

If weather were to unexpectedly arrive in the middle of your round and cause players to be unable to finish their round, we would provide a “FREE ROUND” raincheck card for a future visit.

What hours and days are we open for groups?

We do our best to schedule groups accordingly to control flow of play and also ensure we don’t have multiple groups showing up at exactly the same time.

Ideally, we would like to have our various groups kind of scattered throughout the week to help with flow of traffic.

Hours of operation:

Visit our Hours and Location page for current hours.
Summer Season is approximately Memorial Day through Labor Day (based on local school start dates).
- Typically we open to the public at 11am and close by 9pm or 10pm (depending on night of week). Hours are subject to change
Off-Season is BEFORE Memorial Day and AFTER Labor Day
- We have shorter hours during the spring and fall seasons
- Typically we open to the public at 2pm (weekdays) and 11am (weekends) and close by 8pm. (9pm on Fri/Sat).

Do you have any other activities while I wait?

Yes! We have a cornhole area that accommodates 4 teams of simultaneous play (2 sets of boards). This is available as first come, first serve and no additional cost.

We also have a nice, outdoor patio adjacent to the mini golf course that seats 24 people where you are welcome to enjoy a beverage, sweet treat or light snack purchased from our clubhouse.

How do I book a BIRTHDAY PARTY OR GROUP event with you?

We try to make it pretty simple. For a larger group (20+ players), it would be helpful for you to let us know when you’d like to arrive via our online BOOKING LINK (found under the Pricing and Events page of our website).

Just complete a few questions with the date and time you’d like to come, approximate # of players and your tax exempt certificate number (if applicable). This secures a time for your group to make us aware that you are coming and helps to limit other groups arriving at the exact same time.

For groups smaller than 20 players, NO RESERVATIONS ARE NEEDED -- just come when it works and we’ll add you into the “tee-off” queue as you arrive. Typically, you will be able to tee-off within 5-15 minutes of arrival.

If we are arranging a time outside of our normal hours for your group, or you have additional questions, please feel free to reach us via our event email (bluelagoonminigolf@gmail.com).
