Hi Eve!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
Walt Disney World Resort has four miniature golf courses (two at each location), and these are a really great place to spend some relaxation time. Everyone is welcome to play at all courses, and the current price before tax is $14.00 for adults and $12.00 for children. Please note that these prices are subject to change. Depending on which park tickets you have, those with Park Hopper Plus Option include a certain number of admissions to Miniature Golf. Reservations for your tee time can be made by calling (407) 939-7529. Walk-ins are possible too, but you may have to wait for an available slot, or you might get lucky and start playing immediately. I thoroughly recommend playing these courses for some family fun away from the theme parks.
Winter Summerland Miniature Golf is located alongside Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park, and remains open while the water park is closed. The Winter Course, as you would imagine, follows the snowy theme of Blizzard Beach, and invites you to "putt your way to the North Hole"! While The Summer Course is themed more around sandcastles than snowstorms, with fun in the sun and a melting snowman. Over at the other courses -
Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Miniature Golf - located across the street from
Walt Disney World Swan Hotel - the Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course is suitable for families and aspiring golfers and is full of fanciful fountains, musical surprises and even pirouetting ostriches! For a more challenging game, the Fantasia Fairways Miniature Golf Course may suit you if you prefer a more skilled approach, across the sand traps, bunkers and sloping greens - it really does look like an authentic golf course, shrunk to miniature size. If you play here into the evening, you will be accompanied by the dramatic backdrop of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at
Disney's Hollywood Studios, and maybe even some fireworks. I see your arrival date is in November (exciting !!), and for most days during the week following your arrival date, the opening hours for all courses are 10.00am-10.00pm (please note that times are always subject to change).
If you want to see the fireworks while you play, I just checked the calendar for Disney's Hollywood Studios. For the week of your visit,
Fantasmic! is scheduled for 9.00pm, and on most nights
Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! is also scheduled for 9.00pm (times are subject to change).
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions. We will be happy to help you plan your magical vacation to Walt Disney World.
