Orlando Sentinel is behind a paywall now? I'd rather throw acid in my face than put money in Mike Bianchi's pocket.

I get that mini-golf isn't your goal when going to WDW, but honestly when the parks are a little nuts, or you need a break from them, mini golf is fun. The 2 WDW courses are nice, I do like the ones at City Walk a little better.

I'm not sure about your experience, but I just read the article fine, and I haven't paid a cent to the paper.

Such a cute story. Thanks for sharing. We play one of the courses almost everyday every time we costlier WDW. It’s fun.

It kept popping up asking me to subscribe. Oh well. I get the gist.

Is the total split between the two courses, or only the Fairways?

I totally agree and I too enjoy Disney's courses though I kind of wish they would consider building a new one either in Disney Springs or Fort Wilderness.

Now that I know, I'll have to seek him out and see if hes up for a challenge. I always play the min golf courses as a nice break from the crowds. Its a nice alternate option for entertainment at a reasonable cost. Ive never encountered a huge wait/ backup to play through. They would be used by more guests if the courses were closer to the parks or DS.

FW seems almost like a given, 100%.

I'd guess maybe before they put the Void in that maybe mini-golf could have gone over in that area by Rainforest Café- but yeah, it would be a decent idea there too, as well as a few of the resorts (I would say AoA off the top of my head)

Nooo I like them quiet. Mini golf is included with all UK passes but I don’t think many people know or care.

I'm actually surprised there isnt one or even a Disc Golf course at FW

As for location for a course in DS I always though a nice location would be to the side of the House of Blues.
