A Fun Twist on Mini-Golf

Crave mini-golf is not your ordinary putt-putt game. At each hole, players face exciting challenges that add a whole new level of fun to the game. Imagine taking your first swing with your eyes closed or putting with the club’s handle! You might even find yourself spinning around before making your shot. It’s a surprise at every turn, and we couldn’t help but laugh as we discovered the unique challenges awaiting us at each station.

Well-Designed Holes for Everyone

One thing that stands out at Crave is the well-designed holes. They provide just the right amount of challenge to keep things interesting. The special challenges sprinkled throughout the course add an extra layer of excitement. Whether you’re a seasoned mini-golfer or a newbie, you’re sure to have a blast here.

Indoor and Outdoor Fun

Crave offers mini-golf adventures for all seasons. If the weather isn’t cooperating, don’t worry; they have an indoor course. However, it’s worth noting that the industrial ceiling indoors doesn’t quite capture that whimsical “candy land” experience. If the sun is shining, the outdoor course is where you want to be, surrounded by nature and fresh air.

A Warm Family Experience

Our entire family had a great time at Crave mini-golf. However, on a sunny day, we wished there was more shade to escape the heat. It’s a small hiccup in an otherwise fantastic family-friendly adventure.
