Pirates Cove Adventure Golf

It’s OK, far from great. It only took us about 30 min because the holes are small. A bit pricey for what it is.

Excellent entertainment! We went with some friends and had a great time playing against each other. The grounds are well maintained and and kept very clean; the price was a bit high for us but I guess it could be worse; we’ll be back for sure!

Love this place! My family always passed through Rapid when I was a kid and I always wanted to play here. I finally went 15 or so years later and it was awesome! The place is so clean and the courses are fun. They have music playing and the scenery is beautufl with different flowers everywhere. They have a pretty waterfall and cave course just don’t lose your ball in the cave waters or it’s bye bye. Definitely give em a try kids or adults alike.

My husband and I decided to take the afternoon to play a round of mini golf. The facility is one of the nicest mini golf facilities I have been to, and is super clean and well maintained. The equipment is in great shape. Each hole had its new challenge for the player to figure out, which made it more fun. We did have to wait our turn to play on a few holes, but the lines moved fairly quickly. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There are nice bathroom facilities and soda machines for those needing some refreshment. I would definitely return here the next time I am in the area.

This is by far the cleanest and well maintained mini golf course I have ever been to. We stopped into town to visit Mount Rushmore and were staying at the Motel 6 down the street (which didn’t have flyers for this place) and noticed the pirate golf sign and the hanging shark form the road.
We paid the reasonable price of $ 8.50 each and I’m glad we came because it was so much fun. The water falls were cleans and the lawn was well maintained. In addition each hole was slightly different and had it’s own challenge. Our favorite hole was the one that you golfed under the waterfall. To your right there was a jail ceil full of dread pirate and treasure and to your left there were the backs of the water falls (which I’m not sure what happens if your ball fall in there). At the end you had two chances to win free games one was a free scratcher and the other was like a golf lottery. For under $ 20 this was the perfect place in Rapid City to relax after a long day on the rode.

This is a lovely mini golf course. I brought my two young kids, and we really enjoyed ourselves. I’m an OK mini-​golfer, and this course was a little challenging for me. The kids got frustrated with it at times. Their favorite part was when we finished, and they were both given pirate goodie bags, complete with hats, eye patches, flags, and activity books.

this place was a lot of fun for two mid twenty year olds and a 50 year old. we would definitely come back. very inexpensive a whole lot of fun and a beautiful view at sunset.

Fun course, friendly staff, money well spent.

By far one of the nicest mini golf courses we’ve been to. We were on vacation and looking for something to do with the family. Our kids played the course and said it was the coolest place they’ve done mini golf all year. The landscaping was beautiful, the course clean and in great shape. I saw one of the employees going around sweeping up random trash and leaves. It’s so nice to see people take pride in where they work. The course was a bit challenging, with lots of hills and one hole has a surprise water feature. We thought for sure our ball was a goner down the waterfall but no…
There are lots of trees and lots of shade. Also benches to sit on while watching the kids. I saved our scorecard so I’ll have a list of the other cities where they have their mini-​golf courses. I’ll be trying the ones down at the Lake of the Ozarks and in Branson the next time I’m there.

I will admit this is a fun place to play mini-​golf. Maybe not as great as people are saying. But it was a lot of fun for our family, and my little brother got a goodie bag when it was all over!(; it was a fun time filler.(:

This is single-​handedly the most badass mini-​gold course of all time. When you do anything in a pirate theme it either ends up being unbelievably cheesy, or unbelievably cool. This place is definitely the latter of the two.
They used legit materials when building this place. No materials that look like rock but are really plastic sprayed with a «faux granite» finish. Lots of plants/​shrubbery, water hazards, and fun decorations like the hanging shark.
The holes range from easy to hard, and are definitely friendly for the whole family. This place is conveniently located next to the major strip of hotels that all tourists in the Rapid City area stay. Definitely a fun thing to do after all of the major daytime attractions.

This may be the most fun mini-​golf course I’ve ever played. And who doesn’t love a pirate-​theme? The landscaping is gorgeous during the summer, with tons of plants and flowers nestled among the sparkling waterfalls. The holes range in difficulty from easy to moderate — there are NO volcano holes — but they are all well-​designed and fun, not frustrating. The kids get little pirate goody-​bags, and so can the adults if they ask really nicely.
