Adventure Landing in Winston-Salem NC – Great Place for Miniature Golf

Miniature Golf at Adventure Landing

People who drive on Stratford Road near Hanes Mall in Wintson-Salem cannot miss seeing Adventure Landing, especially if you have kids in the back seat. This is the place with the elephant, giraffe, and a huge waterfall. Actually, they have a crocodile, hippo, and even a turtle too, although you might not notice them from the road. No, Adventure Landing is not a zoo, but it is a fun place to play miniature golf!


Adventure Landing in Winston-Salem NC
Adventure Landing offers three different 18-hole miniature golf courses, and the most popular one is the course with the cave under the largest waterfall called the Cavern Falls Course. My three daughters were quite excited to play this particular course when we visited.

They offer different sized putters, so ensure that the kids pick one that is about waist height. Adventure Landing also has small plastic putters for the smallest kids. My kids were tickled to see that they had a variety of different colored golf balls too. Score cards and pencils are also at the desk, and the friendly staff members are more than willing to answer any questions that you may have.

Each hole is numbered and also gives the par, or number of strokes expected to make the hole. Several kids that were there that day said they made at least one hole in one. My kids had only played miniature golf once before, but they made par on several holes.

The course starts out with a couple of quite simple holes but gets more challenging with hills and barriers. Probably the most challenging part of the course for my kids was keeping the balls from rolling off the bridge and into the water!

The waterfall cave was one of my daughters' favorite parts of the course. You can look out behind the waterfalls while inside the cave and there is also a small waterfall inside. This can be a great place to enjoy some shade and cool off a little if playing on a hot and sunny day.

My kids were excited to discover that there are actually two parts to the cave. Players travel one direction through the first side and the course eventually winds back through the other side of the cave.

The last hole on the course has a collection chute, so it is helpful to let the kids know that the ball will disappear. The end of this one is conveniently located near the check-in desk, so if you have plans to play another course, ride the bumper boats, or play games inside, you can easily move to the next activity.
