Jurassic Adventure Mini Golf

Wildwood News - admin - March 17, 2020

Jurassic-Adventure

A mini golf sight for those that like the game, the theme of this mini golf course is dinosaurs! A great game for kids that understand the game, they can walk around different dinosaurs and enjoy the creativity of the little area. This is a great way to spend a couple of hours when the weather cooperates.

For many visitors its a tradition that they have to stop at Jurassic Adventure Golf at least once a summer. We used to live in the area and since moving away, we always come back for family. So Jurassic golf is a must.

It’s a simple little course that’s fun. The holes aren’t incredibly challenging which I think makes it great for the kids. We don’t have any kids but there’s almost always a couple families there when we’re there. Staff is friendly. Some free parking but it’s free to part on the street there so you shouldn’t have a problem parking.

A fun, family-friendly and prehistoric mini golf course located in North Wildwood. Open 10 a.m. until 11 p.m. daily in the summer season.
