Paradise Golf Driving Range

As with a previous commenter, a driving range is hard to mess up. The mats are in good condition, and there is an area for hitting off the grass, for those looking for more realistic practice facilities. Standard range balls, so nothing special, but they’re in good shape.
They have a frequent bucket club; after buying 6 large buckets, they give the 7^th free. There’s a monthly rate, as well, and if I practiced more than once a week, it would be a great deal ($ 95, I think, for unlimited range balls).
I’ve taken a lesson and thought Rob (the PGA pro) was great. At the completion of the lesson, he provided me a DVD of the entire lesson — a nice perk.
I have lots to work on and will definitely be back for more sessions.
I digress…
The short game practice area, however, leaves a lot to be desired (hence, the 3 stars). The putting green is hairy, so if you’re hoping to work on speed, it’s not going to help come the weekend when you hit even the longest-​grass on a muni. And if you play a nice course with greens in great shape (that are speedy), it would be almost impossible to transition from an hour of practice here to the real-​world greens there.
The pitching area/​sand area is similarly poor. Though, admittedly, they have somewhere to work on both of those aspects. I’ve been to ranges that don’t. So, while not ideal, it’s something (and, thus, the «OK» rating).
No idea on the mini-​golf. I’m not there for putt-​putt.

2 Stars, only because it’s hard to mess up a driving range. The driving range. is a driving range, I really didn’t have any problems with it.
The mini golf on the other hand– oh my goodness. At one point I was ready to ask for my money back. Boring courses, stagnant brown water, broken pipes and courses. Just one big mess. I don’t think we’ll ever go there again for the mini golf.
