10 Awesome Places to Play Mini Golf in Los Angeles 2024

Updated for 2024

Have you taken the kids to play Mini Golf, Putt-Putt Golf, Tom Thumb Golf, or any of the other names for the kid-sized golf game? Whatever you call it, miniature golf is a great family-friendly activity. And here in Southern California, you can play year-round with both indoor and outdoor options available.

Because it’s played on a relatively small course, and usually decorated with fun and often outlandish obstacles to overcome, it’s a terrific thing to do with kids. But don’t let the atmosphere fool you; this is a competitive sport, with its own Federation, and some courses can be tough to win.

But if you approach it with a good attitude and just want to have fun, you’re in luck. Whether you’re looking for someplace close to home or looking for a fun day-trip, here are 10 Fun Places to Play Miniature Golf In and Around Los Angeles
