    One of the best mini golf courses I've been to! The location is well maintained the price is pretty excellent. All the holes are interesting and the decorations are colorful and fun. Some of the holes are difficult but it's what makes it fun! Good place to kill time for an hour. Everyone around was having fun.

    This is an old but well kept and iconic mini golf place right smack on Barton Springs road. Parking is tight but you can also park on the south side of mcDonalds (not facing the course). Prices are reasonable, 2 18-hole courses - East one is easy, West one little tougher (and was crowded). They do accept cards, and sell water, sodas and snow cones. Some places along the course had a little stink and the bathrooms were not that clean. Otherwise the course itself is kept very clean. But overall a fun place to have some fun (esp with kids)

    After seeing this place on the map while planning our trip to Austin, we knew we had to make a stop here! We had a fantastic time playing mini-golf at Peter Pan Mini-Golf in Austin, Texas. The fact that it's BYOB made it even better! We enjoyed a couple of beers while we played the 18 holes on the "hard" course. The art style is definitely old-school, but it added to the charm of the place. It was refreshing to see something that had been around for so long still thriving. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was very laid-back, making for an enjoyable experience. They also have another course, which we're planning to check out next time we're in the area. The staff at Peter Pan Mini-Golf were fantastic, too. They were friendly and helpful, and they made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was very laid-back, and it was clear that everyone was there to have a good time. We also appreciated that the prices were reasonable. It's not often that you find an activity that's both fun and affordable these days. Overall, we had a blast at Peter Pan Mini-Golf and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and unique mini-golf experience. It's a great spot for a date, a family outing, or a night out with friends.

    A fantastic Austin gem. Me and my wife came here on a Thursday evening around 6:30pm and went right in. We opted for 18 holes on the harder side of the course and we’re glad we did. The easier side of the course seemed a bit too easy just from glancing over at it. We are first timers so any capable adult should be able to have fun on the “hard” side. Many people brought their own beer but they do sell water and some soft drinks. Parking is very limited, but street parking is available nearby (within 5-7 min walk). Great way to spend an evening with a group of friends small or large.

    It's time to step back in time with 2 vintage courses at Peter Pan Putt Putt. We soared our way through the whimsical holes laughing at our blunders. Occasionally we like the other guest would get the elusive hole-in-one and break out in thunderous roars of laughter! Pros: affordable, bright, whimsical, enjoyed by all ages. Con: parking - there is overflow parking shared with McDonald's follow the signs you'll be ok!

    This is the actual Most Magical Place on Earth. Been coming to Peter Pan for over a decade and it’s still one of my favorite ways to spend a Saturday morning. Whether you’re bringing a cooler for putt putt and beers with friends or you’re here with your kids, this place remains a true Austin gem. Pro tip: play one round of 18 and then decide if you wanna do the second 18.

    Fun was had by all! Really cute courses, friendly staff. I didn’t finish 18 holes because I was there on a 100+ degree day and couldn’t take the heat. They offered me a free play for next time!

    It was extremely hot on the day we went. We did persperate a lot. Despite this, we had a charming time of patting a golf ball up and down green slopes and into a hole. You can either buy 18 or 36 holes with a cavalcade of extraordinary sculpture scenery pieces.

    Not super expensive like other places. Family owned. Been around for over 60 years. The putt putt has cool feature. Music played while we were there. Not busy. Guy was super friendly. Great for families.

    This mini golf place is so unique and fun!! If you like mini golf, you’d love this place. The hard course is true to its name! I wish I lived in Austin so I could go more often. Loved all of the sculptures around the course. The back of the course is dark at night time. I would go in the day next time but we still had an amazing time!

    Super fun double date! Parking was a struggle since there is only one entrance/exit to their parking lot, so cars were getting stuck trying to exit.

    A quirky, fun and fairly priced family-friendly activity that has been here for decades and is a part of what made Austin what it is today. The staff is always extremely welcoming. Hoping they stay around for many more decades to come.

    Super cute mini golf course. Fun for all ages. I went with my teen son who had fun and we saw all ages - families w young kids, young couples, older couples, groups of adults. We have come both daytime and night and it’s fun either way. I learned last visit it is BYOB so good to know. They have bathrooms available and a small parking lot. Bonus if you have a kid who loves trains like mine it backs up to train tracks and we often get to see/hear one pass by.

  • 5/5 Kimmi D. 5 months ago on Google
    Great classic Austin spot. What’s not to like? Cute holes with fun decor and installations plus BYOB. It definitely can get busy at times and you may be awkward squished in waiting for one group to finish but people behind you rushing in too. Best to go at less popular times. But truly an iconic spot!

    Eric is an absolute unit! He lent me a cooler and is one of the nicest guys you could meet. Peter pan has always been a fun place to visit but he made my experience ten times better just by being an awesome dude. I will definitely be returning soon.

  • 5/5 Grace D. 10 months ago on Google
    Best time and magical chill feeling to spend a solo day before a flight outta town. So glad I finally checked it out! Few groups this Monday and mild to moderate difficulty for each ⛳.

  • 5/5 Billy R. 4 months ago on Google
    Great place with great friends. For a place that's 75 years old this year, some of the holes could use a tiny bit of love but not enough to make you mad about missing par. The bunny statue is a bit creepy. Place fills up quick in the morning so be quick or be polite and let smaller groups go ahead of you, especially if you have a larger party.

  • 5/5 Gina H. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cool place. Decently priced. Can get busy on the weekends though and there is virtually no parking so you might have to park across the street or down the street because the parking lot is very small. Loved it though. We've been a few times and will definitely go back.

  • 4/5 Andel W. 1 year ago on Google
    This was a fun day date! The area is small not big stroller friendly. Just make sure to go on a week day when it's not busy cause I feel like it would be claustrophobic if there was a lot of people. I wish there was a bit more shaded areas do not recommend in the summer heat. The check in person was very nice and welcoming. I would definitely go back! It takes about an hour to go through the entire course.

  • 5/5 Andrea G. 1 year ago on Google
    We had so much fun. We decided to do something local and out doors and picked Peter Pan Mini Golf. It made for a great day date and just a nice way to spend some time friendly competing in the out doors.

    Really fun Mini-golf course. Great artistic sculptures- brightly painted. Great for kids and adults. Had really fun afternoon. Friendly staff. Played all 18 holes.

  • 5/5 Miss Shallini S. 1 year ago on Google
    Dinosaur,Faries, Giant Pigs, OH MY! If your wanting a good time,this is the place to be. This Mini Golf is great for all ages, have been here since 1948 and it's still holds a great place for a great time. You can bring your own drinks (alcohol included) and your own food. There are 36 holes in total but you can choose 18 if you like. I highly recommend coming to Peter Pan Mini-Golf!
