Quick – what’s like golf but will have you much less likely to throw a club into the trees? Putt-putt, mini-putt, mini-golf… whatever you call it, is an underrated option around Vancouver. Since summer is the best time to enjoy it, we’ve got a few places in mind that you’ll definitely want to check out.
So with that in mind, here are 6 great mini-golf spots to visit around Vancouver.
Stanley Park Pitch & Putt

We’re starting off this list with the quintessential putt-putt spot in Vancouver: Stanley Park’s beloved Pitch & Putt. With 18 holes ranging from 40 to 100 yards, and first-come-first-serve tee times – this is a great spontaneous option if you’re walking around Stanley & considering switching things up.
Where: 2099 Lagoon Drive
Cost: $15.59 for adults
Giggle Ridge Adventure Golf
It’s only fair that we include the equally outrageous Giggle Ridge at Cultus Lake Adventure Park. Here, you’ll find a course inspired by a cartoon mountain lumber camp. And, like Sweet Escape, it’s just one of many activities to check out when you visit!
Where: 3993 Sunnyside Boulevard, Cultus Lake
Cost: Free with admission to the waterpark ($18+)
West Coast Mini-Putt
If you need a spot to beat the summer heat, this is the one. It would be impossible to write a list and not include the classic indoor blacklight option. Lucky for us (and you), that’s exactly what you can expect at West Coast Mini-Putt, since 9 holes here are glow-in-the-dark. Best experienced with a few pals on a weekend, and maybe with glow-in-the-dark bowling after.
Where: 7391 Elmbridge Way, Richmond
Cost: $14.30 per person

Bummed about Keefer Yard closing down last year? Not to worry, you can still drink and putt at Part-Tee Putt in downtown Vancouver. The Par-Tee Putt features 18 themed holes including iconic local landmarks like Science World and even the Lions Gate Bridge. Plus, there are holes with movie and pop-culture references in the mix as well – including Caddyshack, Jaws, and Game of Thrones.
Where: 670 Smithe Street, above Dublin Calling
Cost: $24.95 for early bird pricing
Queen Elizabeth Pitch & Putt
Along the same lines as Stanley Park, Queen Elizabeth’s Pitch & Putt is a fantastic option for folks who are looking to add to a summer’s day itinerary, particularly for new golfers. Plus, you get unparalleled views of the city and an array of flowers and greenery to enjoy as you play!
Where: 4600 Cambie Street
Cost: $15.12 for adults
Savage Creek Golf Course

Our last pick is definitely our top choice for those looking for putting practice in addition to the classic mini-golf experience. Why? Well, the ‘Hidden Meadows’ course is both actual grass and features a lot of slopes/distances you’d see while actually golfing. But, without the struggle to actually get to the green. It’s the best of both worlds!
Where: 7388 No. 6 Road, Richmond
Cost: $6 per person
And that’s our roundup of mini-golf spots around Vancouver! Whether you’re out there for fun or practicing for your next must-make birdie, we hope this list helps.
