Fun, open, family friendly Nice workers, clean and a fun place to have a date I went with my boyfriend and you can see people but at the same time have your own space to share with the people that you went with. I will go again! read more

Visited while on vacation and had so much fun. Really enjoyed the courses and the scavenger hunt was a nice touch to make it different from the others. They also have these things you spin at different holes to add some more fun as well. We enjoyed feeding the alligators. The baby ones are so cute! I believe you can get a picture with one but it's around $15 per person. Will visit again in the future!! read more

Really friendly and helpful staff. Put put course is well laid out and maintained. Arcade. Gem mining and best of all gator feeding and petting. read more

This place really is a great mini gold course. The holes are well kept and the environment is extremely fun and has a cool island safari feel. The parking area is nice and large so finding a spot shouldn't be a problem. The clubs and golf balls are clearly maintained. There is a fun little gator feeding pool right when you walk in. Theres is a little pavilion for birthday parties and an arcade. There is a fun scavenger hunt that you can do as you move through each hole. If you complete it by the end of your game then each member of your party receives a scratch off card, which is nice that they give you one per person instead of one per group. We encountered our first problem when we paid for our mini gold $40 FOR 3 ADULTS?! Are you KIDDING me?! This price was completely ridiculous. We didn't comment on the price but my husband asked if they have any law enforcement or teacher pricing. The extremely rude girl cashier responded "with valid military ID".... yeah thanks that is clearly not what we asked you. She continued to act like we were annoying her throughout the rest of our interactions with her, while were were selecting clubs/gold balls and even extended to when we turned in our scavenger hunt card to receive our scratch offs. Its clear that the management of this place really cares about maintaining and taking care of it. I had to knock off a star for the ridiculous price and another one for the super rude employee. It really was a great time... but maybe see if they have a coupon or groupon. read more

It putt putt an my kids feed little gators but they had fun. An the staff was friendly.

Very nice and very clean. The employees were sooooo friendly and helpful. If you buy online, the prices are very reasonable and kids four and under are free. They have themed golf balls you can buy for your kids (Spider-Man, spongebob, and others). I would definitely go back here. read more

This is very close to my house so one day in a last-minute idea instead of going home, I decided to swerve to the right and head over to Play mini golf about 40 minutes before they were closing. But they happily allowed me to go in and play. Who wouldn't know that this fun little jungle set was tucked away right here off of the frontage road? The course was fun and was rocky, full of stalagmites , small rivers-so to speak, and at the end you could hold an alligator for a little extra if you so wish to do so. That way tourists don't leave Florida without seeing what Florida is apparently known for. It's fun for the whole family. I was then the night time so I couldn't tell you what the daytime would be like other than probably a bit on the hot side. read more

Cool mini golf course. Holes are easy enough for little kids, but hard enough to keep the line behind you busy at the last hole. They also have a scavenger hunt and you can do some gem sluicing or go to the arcade. $20 for two adults was a decent price. read more

Went for mini golf and got a whole experience. We got mini golf, arcade games, fed and held gators! Overall a really good experience and the staff was very friendly too. Would 10/10 go again. read more

We had a blast. I find mini golf is more about who you are with, but this was a clean and well maintained course as well. We had plenty of space to chat and laugh at one another vs. constant interaction with other people like some other places. The cost wasn't too bad either and there are scratch offs at the end for discounts on your next trip. I liked the spin wheels for variety too and we goofed with them a lot. read more

This was my first time miniature golfing and enjoyed myself! This was a very cool course and the have a scavenger hunt. It was very clean and the staff (who was a ny native) was very friendly. We spent about a good 15 mins chatting with him about his exodus out of ny. There is a small arcade room and real gators in the entrance! We were able to feed them. It was pretty awesome read more

Fun times, but gets backed up on a Friday night. If you register for their newsletter, they will send you a discount coupon. It is better than anything offered on their site (how is $1 a discount?) so definitely sign up. We chose to go on a Friday evening. It was a Friday date night for us. While we were driving there I thought, who goes to mini golf on a Friday night? The answer: Everyone. We breezed right past the practice hole, because I was afraid that we would end up holding up people. Mini golf isn't that difficult. Sure, there were some holes that took me 6 strokes, but for the most part I was at 2-3 and I am not an avid (mini) golfer. We quickly caught up with the family in front of us. Even though there were three young kids playing, it wasn't their fault. They were caught up with the triple date ahead of them. This means eventually the people behind us catch up with us. There's a lot of standing and waiting. Which isn't a bad thing if you make friends with the people ahead or behind you. There is enough to look at that I never felt like it was particularly burdensome having to wait. They give you a scavenger hunt to do while on the course. It shouldn't be that difficult, but we never found everything! I even made my husband walk the course a second time to find the two we were missing and we never found one. The lady at the desk gave us the scratch off anyways. I'm not sure if she has ever seen anyone walk the course a second time to try to find what they missed. And our scratch off was a discount of.....$1. With all that said and done, it was actually a fun time. I see how it is fun for families, but it is also fun for couples. The course gets harder as you go, but I never felt like it was impossible. I would highly suggest it. read more

When Jack Nicklaus designed this course, he definitely went all out, attempting to top all golf courses previously conceived. There are multiple levels, moving water hazards, mysterious caves, and numerous random stationary obstacles. Choices abound at every hole. Do I hit left and risk the water hazard or hit right and hope for the best? Nobody knows! We decided to brave this pinnacle of golf epic-ness, happily discovering that nobody does this at 4:30pm on a weekday. We had the whole place to ourselves! We could concentrate! We could focus! We could dominate! Breaking par for the championship round was our goal and we had to have it. Then, in a burst of regrettable hubris, I decided to shoot the round with a 3 iron, just to up the challenge level. The round started with a par, a hole in one, and another par. Course record, here we come! Unfortunately, the top prize eluded me when that darn multilevel hole with a wicked break sent me deep in to bogey land from which there was no recovery. read more

It was so great. Staff was very nice. Definitely recommend. The sound to add advantages or disadvantages makes it more fun

My husband likes to play golf but I am intimated by the whole idea of going through a golf course holding up a line behind me. So mini golf is a good way for both my husband and me to have fun together. The place is decorated nicely. They have a little quiz on the score sheet so keep your eyes open to get the answers right. The price is reasonable and it is a good place to go if you have nothing else to do. read more

Went here for the first time last week with my girlfriend and her son. We all had a great time. Although the price is a little high if you search the net or go on their website you can get a little money off. All holes were in the best shape of any mini golf place I've played at. They must replace the carpet often as there was no wear and tear. Course was fun and slightly challenging. There are a few games like a scavenger hunt and spin the wheel to see how to shoot at each hole. Quite unique also with the baby gators swimming around as you enter. I do recommend but will hit your wallet if you go with a family. read more

Congo River Golf - Baby gators - Mini Golf Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

This is one of the cleanest and nicest mini golf places I have ever been to! The course was well maintained, full of story and added elements to make your game play more fun. The staff was very friendly as well. For the kiddos, there's also mining, alligators for viewing, holding and petting as well as an arcade. We were a party of 4 adults and had a great time just golfing. I highly recommend! read more

The guys that take care of customers were awesome! They were very patient with my grandkids! Great customer service to Dylan and Justin! You rock read more

We went with family that was in town & wanted to get out. The kids that check you in are so rude! They spent more time hanging out, smoking & texting than they did paying attention to the people trying to purchase tickets. For 2 people it was $60! For mini golf!? Not only is it overpriced but, they have no service! Just skip this place. read more

Staff was very friendly, grounds were clean, we had a blast! They also have gators to feed and hold. read more

Solid hour and a half play time and great course. The price is also good. The arcade gave off weird vibes but if you're there for putt putt it's valid. Alligators were also chill :) read more

Have you ever wanted to play on a putt putt course with actual danger involved? My bae and I just decided on a whim to try some putt putt, so she got a deal on tickets and away we go! It's located on a frontage road in the shadow of US-19, easy to spot once you exit us-19. First thing you see casually walking up is a bunch of people gathered around a pond with what looks like fishing rods. Upon further investigation, it's a gator pond and you can feed them or pet them if you're feeling froggy! They also have an arcade and party area good for large birthday parties or corporate events. The course is dangerous on its own as you have to cross little creeks that criss-cross the place. It's your typical putt putt, obstacles and silly fake grass. It's the course itself that's different, it feels like whoever built this has great vision and a idea of how putt putt should flow. You even play in a boat that "crashed" into the course. Do yourself a favor, pull in, drop $13 and have fun. read more

Gorgeous scenery and such a fun vibe. It truly is a vacation feel! Definitely recommend this spot!

The golf course is in pretty good condition. It's well lit. There wasn't a lot of mosquitoes. Major problem they need to address. They need some big fans moving some air. It is totally stagnant and sweltering. Uncomfortable especially for children or older people. Would make the experience so much more enjoyable if they had some air moving through read more

This was a fun golf course. The staff was friendly. A good escape on a Saturday night. The scavenger hunt was fun (look up in the trees). The arcade was lame. Air hockey basketball and some crane games. I'd come back. A solid activity. Suggestions. Larger arcade 2 courses. Not one. read more

Terrific mini-golf experience! This was the cleanest, best maintained mini-golf place we've ever played. Good course, not too bad a wait, even with a lot of people playing ahead of us - we never had more than a seven minute wait, and that was only at the beginning, when a lot of groups were starting at the same time. I went with my husband and two kids (13 and 15) and we all had a great time. As someone else noted, this is not ADA or mobility-impaired friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Avoid at all cost. Took my family there for fun and it turned into the worst part of our vacation. They let 6 teen age girls ahead of us that used the park for background for their Instagram photos. Nearly 2 hours to play 9holes of mini golf? 8 groups tied up behind us and 2 groups quit and walked off. I called the office and asked for some assistance but the young men at the counter were absolutely no help. I asked at the end for managements phone number. They gave me their manager's number. I called and got no answer. Later I received a text " who is this"? After back and forth texts I asked for corporates phone number and was told he could not give it out. I will get the number and let them know that they could use some supervision and or adults on duty. read more

Friendly staff, lots to do, reasonable prices. Great way to spend 2 hours while in the area.

great staff always smiling and Carlos and Jacob helped use a lot even when my wife lost her ball

Adventure and excitement! You never know what's coming around the bend. This miniature golf course packs a punch with its colorful theme, eye pleasing landscapes and immaculate putting greens. Every hole is completely different. You will journey up and down hills, through caves, along side waterfalls, over bridges and on a boat! Some of the holes have "spinners" for added fun. Spin the wheel and you may have to shoot with your eyes closed. The imaginative designs of each green made for strategic game play. The obstructions weren't too tough to bypass but a beginners ball could easily end up in the river. The crowd on a Monday afternoon was so small we never waited for the next hole. Perfect flow with time to admire the scenery. The cashier at the front was friendly and informative. She gave us scratch off tickets for discounts on merch. Admission was on the high side for golfing plus gator feeding (yes, you can literally feed gators). Their website offers coupons, so check it out before you play. read more

This was a fun ( little pricey ) afternoon. Very well kept - clean with uniformed employees adding to the experience. I felt sorry for the baby alligators in the front - they seemed a little sad ( I don't really know what a happy baby alligator looks like ... but these seemed a little melancholy.) It was really fun until we got behind a party of 4 very slow players - come on play the game people ! Very well run attraction - I felt like we were in Orlando . read more

This place went above and beyond all of our expectations. We are all here from out of state, and thought the idea of putt-putt golf and alligators together was exclusive to Florida, so we had to go. None of us (except the kids) thought it would be great. Were we surprised. The parking lot was filled, but we never felt crowded. We have been to a number of mini golf courses, most of which seemed aged, this was not. This looked new, well cared for, full of healthy plants (and little lizards) it was not campy at all. There was a continuous theme throughout. There was a mummy that the kids thought was real and loved it. The price for holding an alligator, it is not per person, it is per group. That was fabulous. The kids could decide if they were holding an alligator or not, and it didn't mater, because we didn't pay individually. My SIL actually tried to kiss it, and my mom challenged herself to touch it. My husband was happy taking pictures. They also had panning for gems. We had done panning for gold at other locations ... it was a waste, but here, thus was worth our money. My daughter got a small bag and shared it with her cousin. There was sooo much in this little bag!! Her older cousin got a larger bag with his own money and shared it with his little brother and my daughter... there was so much loot! We also had them feed the alligators. They were 6 month old alligators. This was fantastic! We shared a bag with the kids. I'm sure one bag per person have been epic, but the kitchen da shared one bag of food with their mommies and were happy. I am so happy we went here. No one was disappointed, everyone was happy, and we did not waste our money. It was the perfect family event. read more

We had a great time! They have an app which makes it very easy to keep score. There is a scavenger hunt while you play. They offer different safari packages. We just did the miniature golf. You can feed the gators. The staff was so so very nice. We will be returning again and again! Thank you for a fun filled day! read more

first of all @baily T, if you did your research, alligators are cold blooded and enjoy to cuddle to keep warm.

So much fun. My husband and I came here 5 years ago and returned the other day. We enjoy mini put and the course is fun. I still have not been able to locate the snake in the scavenger hunt. Great for adults and kids. read more

I highly recommend Congo river golf. We went at night and it was a blast. The only thing that would make it better is if they would install misting fans throughout the course as it gets hot and the location does not provide for a breeze. read more

Love this place. My son is obsessed with playing putt putt golf. Even when we go out of town we find a place to go. Congo River is for sure one of the best places. There's really beautiful landscaping and a treasure hunt. The staff is always nice and they have other really cool features that most mini golf places don't have. They have alligators you can feed, they have a little arcade. Seriously it's a little oasis of fun. The last time we went we found out we could pre-pay for a next time for a little bit better rate. So happy this place exists! read more

Enjoyed a round of putt putt and a game of air hockey today. The course was fun and the staff was friendly and helpful. read more
