Professor Hacker’s Lost Treasure Golf

Great family course. 10 bucks a person, cool train ride up. Holes are pretty easy though.

AWESOME! The 3 year old loved the train and we loved the course. Fun and challenging!

Cute mini golf! They stand out from others because there is a cute little train that takes you to the top of the mountain to begin your golfing journey!
Once at the top, you take either course Diamond, or course Gold. We had to take the Diamond course because the Gold one was under renovations. No big deal. Once you start hole number one, each hole after that slowly starts to bring you back down the mountain.
Besides the train ride, there wasn’t anything special about the course. The holes were very very easy. None were challenging what’s so ever. So that was a slight disappointment. But we still had fun.

We had a great time! The staff was wonderful! Dad and daughter loved the train. A good time had by all!

Fun mini golf where you take a train ride to the top of the ‘mountain’ and play your way down, plenty of shade, lots of water features including a hole where you can putt your ball into the stream and it lets out near the hole… what more can you ask for? Well I ask for coupons… just search on google and show them a mobile coupon for $ 1 off/​person. You can also play subsequent games there or at their other dinosaur themed course down the street at a discount.

Staff was friendly and the ride in the train to the top of the course was a blast (which says something considering the youngest person in our party was 23 years old). Well maintained and very fun course. Two different courses to choose from. We did the diamond and it was a challenge but incredibly fun. At only $ 10/​person, I would definitely recommend!

Great mini golf course amazing scenery and fun holes, and really enjoyed the mine cart ride in the beginning, would be nice for some of the holes to be a little bit more intricate and challenging but still one of the best ones in Myrtle beach

Clean, great breeze, fun, not too crowded. Best one we’ve gone to in MB. The train was an extra bonus. Great time for children & adults alike.

As far as mini Golf Goes, Lost Treasure is pretty good. they have a good mix of challenging wholes as well as some that are pretty simple for the kids. the highlight of the course is the train ride at the very beginning. it sets this course apart from others that I have been to.

Difficulty: not so much
Funness: a ton
Great course for families. For kids
Train ride up was a bonus.

It was a cooler summer night here so we decided to go play mini golf. First impression — the staff looked extremely bored and over the whole place and dealing with tourists. The place itself looked clean, fun, and festive.
So you take a cute little train ride up the mountain and start from top to bottom. It was super festive and fun little way to start off the game.
There was a lot of different levels of challenges, and couple courses were extremely difficult, which made it more a little frustrating but fun.
By the end however, the whole experience started to get a little boring, and looking around the other groups of players, I could sense that everybody was starting to feel «over it», and it wasn’t just me.
It was decent mini golf exprience, wasn’t too expensive, and I would softly recommend it to kill some time one day.

Our family has been to about 10 mini golf courses in Myrtle Beach and this one is one of the best. The course is pretty challenging and in good condition. There are some long lines in the evening so be prepared to wait. My only complaint is that some of the holes are not well lit.

I’ve been coming to Myrtle Beach for years and have played at many mini golf courses in the area. This year, the wife and I decided to look for a new place to try. After reading the rave reviews, we decided to give Lost Treasure a shot.
First impressions were good. Parking lot was nice with plenty of parking, appeared to be well lit. The place looked like fun when we arrived.
We then walked to the hut to get our clubs and pay. There was some sort of malfunction with the machine that printed the scorecards. We stood there for a full 10 minutes while the employees tried to get the machine to print properly. There wasn’t a poor attitude directed toward us, but they seemed to be very frustrated at the set up. It was almost as if this happens frequently. They finally gave us a brief halfhearted apology after waiting. I really can’t figure out why they print the scorecards on demand. No directions were given on where to go, but after waiting for so long, we figured it out.
There was a pretty cool «train» ride that takes you through the course and up to the top. It takes your through a brief tunnel. Honestly, that was probably the «coolest» part of the course. It was a really fun way to start but wasn’t followed up with a course of equal entertainment value.
The entire course was very clean, and looked either new or freshly remodeled. All of the turf was in very good shape. The walkways were very easy to navigate. They even had wheel chair options for each of the two places the path crossed over the «train tracks.»
As far as the course itself, we played the diamond course. (There are two; but we weren’t told this during the long wait while trying to pay and get our scorecards.) Honestly, it was a bit disappointing in comparison to the fun start of the tunnel and train ride. The holes were very simply laid out; here’s the start, there’s the hole. Rather few obstacles and challenges.
Would I come here again? Probably not; but only because of all of the other great mini golf places in the area. We are glad we came at least once though.

As good as the other reviews said. Very clean, fun course and the train was super cool. Really happy we followed the Unilocal reviews and went. It’s currently $ 9.25/pp over the age of 5 so it was $ 40 for the 4 of us. You can buy a second round for $ 6/​pp. we went at 5:30 and it was slightly busy but we didn’t have to wait for each hole. We did the diamond course, apparently they have both the diamond and gold course. 18 holes for each course. We absolutely will go back!

One of the better mini golf places I’ve experienced. We had to take a train to the start of the course. That was a neat surprise. Very clean and creative.

Short little train ride takes you up the mine at the top of the mountain where you begin the mini golf.
Nice archeological theme.
We enjoyed our time.

The two courses have a fair amount of shade with holes and travel path going in and out of caves. Play moves along pretty quickly. You can play all day (until 6) for $ 12.

I came here with six other people aged 17 – 18 and two adults in their 50’s… we all loved it.
The train was awesome and a cool added touch. You go to the top of the golf course and choose either the diamond or gold path (both, to my knowledge, are the exact same but they just face different directions), and work your way down.
The holes were elaborate, but easy enough for young kids to score. Only thing was, there was one hole in which a river breaks the path of the ball, so be sure to hit your ball over it or you may have to chase it!
The whole course is nice and clean. No trash anywhere. Plenty of benches and trash cans.
Once you finish, you can grab some ice cream, take a picture with (a statue of) Professor Hacker, or make some souvenir pennies.
It was simply awesome. I live in Maryland, so I hope to take a shot at the location in Ocean City!

*** Guests should note that this golf course is listed as «Lost Treasure» but is really «Professor Hacker’s Lost Treasure» mini golf. I accidentally checked in to the other listing named «Professor Hacker’s Lost Treasure» on Unilocal,but that one shows photos and reviews of «Professor Hacker’s Dinosaur Adventure». Confusing I know. ***
Enjoyed playing a round of mini golf here :) We did the Diamond Course which had some cute little attractions. Great for kids, and cheap activity to do with family or friends.
TIP: If you actually follow the story you’ll see that Hole 10 has a secret water stream that leads to the hole — you hit the ball into the little river and into the hole it goes! ;)

Fun golf course with a lot of cool features!
The first thing is taking a little tram to the top of the hill to start your course. There are two courses here and it’s a bit pricey but hey, it’s a tourist town. The tram was kinda cool, something I’ve never seen before, but of course not necessary for the able bodied!
Most of the holes are par 2 on the platinum course, and we stayed pretty close to it. A couple were more difficult. TIP: One of the holes has a place where you actually can shoot into the water and your ball goes through a cave, is filtered out, and it shot back out onto the course below. My stepmom tried it — HOLE IN ONE! I tried it and didn’t get it, but close! Next time! :)
