This mini golf course is just beautiful. It appears to me that it was a converted motel pool; which, is pure genius! The flora is gorgeous, but remember these are habitats for bees and things, so be mindful. The boys working the counter were friendly and informative. They advised that there were two course options, a difficult course and a less difficult one. We opted for the less difficult and found it to be pretty challenging! All in all it was such a fun time even on a super hot day. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and working on my technique. read more

Talk about a blast from the past, this is the vintage mini golf you are looking for. Had a blast here for about $13 per person. Nice bar but with limited beer selections. No Modelo or Budweiser or bud light or anything you normally have. But if you are a hipster then they will have something you can drink. Food looked good but didn't try. And if you are looking to mingle in your sixties on a Friday night then this is the spot for you! If the beer selections were better it would have been 5 stars. read more

This is such a fun place. The scenery is beautiful and the course has varying levels of difficulty so good for adults and kids. The food was just okay(they were out of a lot of things) but I'm not subtracting points because the drinks were good and they were very accommodating with replacing/substituting items they didn't have. read more

Perfect place for a party! I filled out the form on their website and paid electronically in advance. When we arrived, each person in our party got a ticket to mini-golf, choose any item from the food menu, and order drinks from the bar as well. Our tables were reserved and ready. There was a band playing live music, and people dancing. We played the 1929 course: no silly gimmicks, just old-fashioned mini golf. It was fun. read more

You're NOT cool if you don't go to cool crest!!! Updated recently with a BEER Garden!! Live music and a food truck to boot. Not to mention two 18 hold courses to get competitive with your friends on. The staff is amazing. The course is gorgeous. Take some bug spray though bc the mosquitoes will get you. They do parties for groups. Go check out this San Antonio staple and support them so they'll be around for years to come. read more

Vintage, fun experience. We went on a HOT Tuesday night and had fun. We did the beginners course and it was not as easy as it may seem. Some things seemed a little bit in disrepair, but there's a certain charm in that not replicated by 21st century mini golf establishments. They have live music on Friday and Saturday, and a brewery with drinks every night. read more

This place is so cool and affordable! They play retro music and the whole place has a classic feel. It probably took two of us around an hour to play 18 holes of mini golf, so the perfect activity for a warm evening. Their hours are kind of limited, so just check carefully before showing up. They also had a bar and a stage, presumably for live music, which seems like it would be a great place to hang out! read more

Cool crest mini golf was a great place to visit for family-friendly fun. Pricing isn't bad at $10 for adults and $8 for kids. The course itself looks like it has seen better days but overall well taken care of. Some of the plants and foliage add to the challenge as they've overgrown over the fairway areas. Be careful though, as there were alot of rambunctious kids running around and practicing their parkour skills plus flying balls (gotta yell "Fore!" Haha) Overall a cool retro place and worth visiting! read more

You choose from two different 18-hole courses (beginner and difficult). We chose the difficult course and enjoyed every moment of the challenge. The landscape and architecture of the place was SO cute and made a great scene to look at as you waited your turn. Definitely recommend this for date night, family night or whatever. They have live music, food and drinks as well. read more

Super fun! My grandson and I had a blast!! Yes there are a few areas that look "old"... the place has been there nearly 100 years! it's a great course, well laid out, lots of trees and tropical landscape features. and they have live music sometimes too. highly recommend. read more

Edited: Cute spot. Informed the fella that it was our first time and he kinda gave us the next step ie grab ball, score card, club; have fun" at the end of our game, we realized there was another section, 1959,. It was a a good thing we didn't start playing there as that is the beginners section .. would've been no bueno lol They give military discounts #ThankYou 4 stars because it did not look like the green had been touched up/cleaned in a good while (meaning just a few hours). Debris affected the game but it made a good laugh for when the ball flew to another hole lol I totally understand that the weather was def involved so it did not stop us from playing. Would we be their again? absolutely. Already referred to fam and friends. Oh, Thank you for providing hand sanitizer too.. Many places stopped doing that Thanks to the owner for acknowledging. Much appreciated read more

There are two different 18-hole courses to choose from - both are well-maintained and easy to maneuver. There are also limited concessions if you need a drink or snack. Live music is available on some nights - check the site directly to determine what nights they have music. As far as the golfing goes, this is a classic venue with simple mini-golf obstacles. Each of the courses has fun holes; all are do-able and mildly challenging. This is a great place for a family outing, a fun date or even a team-building excursion. It can get a little warm if you come during the summer but there is plenty of shade and benches at every hole. The price is also affordable which makes it even more attractive. I highly recommend for a fun night out. read more

Honestly this place is the epitome of a San Antonio family owned business. Everyone here is a class act and so accommodating to their patrons. The staff kindly asked my dad to move his car because he was blocking a gate, and after he did provided us with a free game. We honesty felt like we were in someone's home at this course and will definitely be coming back. read more

We've been to play mini golf a handful of times. Saturday night we went to listen to the live music, Frio Trio, and have a few adult beverages. The drinks are an acceptable price and the entertain was great. I would recommend this place for either mini golfing or listening to music OR both! Enjoy both :) read more

We had so much fun. The course was beautiful and the obstacles for each hole were great. Mario was very informative. He let us know that they had a beer garden off to side of the course. We went on a Thursday night and we received $2 off our first beer. He also let us know that on the weekends they have live music and food trucks. We had such a great time and will be back for sure. read more

I have not been here but want to visit. I want to play miniature golf. It's a long desire I have.

What a great place! Played the older course which is long and challenging. Wish we lived in the SA area to take advantage. Update 7/2020. Reserved the first tee time for 4 on a scorcher. Lady at the desk was extremely rude which was unnecessary and unprofessional. read more

The joy of mini golf is that no one (at least, no one in my family) is a ringer at mini golf, so it's a chance to be silly and enjoy the challenge of the zany ramps and tunnels. Cool Crest has retro grace, from the mid-century architecture to the tropical plantings. On an early spring visit, the course was fragrant with lemon blossoms; we're looking forward to coming back in the summer and playing under the shade of banana plants. Enjoy this throwback good time, jamming to oldies tunes, and humbling yourself on improbable (or downright impossible) greens. read more

Great experience! We have been twice now and we will be returning. The manager gave us vouchers to return with our party because we didn't finish our game. Great customer service! read more

This is genuinely one of the most beautiful and unique places you could go to play mini golf. It's not overly cheesy like most mini golf places are. It's got lush greenery all around the course making it look like a natural oasis, the trees provide some shade from the mid day sun. They have two courses one older that is harder and more fun for the adults and one that's easier and has more of a typical mini golf set up that's easier for the kids to play. The staff is super helpful in deciding which course to pick if you've never visited before. 10/10 recommend making a visit. read more

Even though the foliage was dead because of the winter freeze it was still an enjoyable day playing mini golf at CC. Great family fun!! During the day you can get a beer and a food truck is on site at night. It's very retro and affordable. read more

We stayed in an Airbnb literally right across the street from this place so we decided to go across and check it out. We are so glad we did! The staff was so nice. We went around 8:30pm and it was the perfect time. We played 18 holes on the new course and it was $18. They have 2 courses the old one that is for bragging rights and the new one that is a little crazier. Would really recommend it! read more

I went on a date here one Friday night and it was great. They had a live band playing and a food truck !

Going to Cool Crest with my daughter reminded me of the days when I was a kid and Cool Crest was the one place in town to miniature golf. I'm sure my parents considered it a bit of a drive, but I thought it was worth it. And it's still worth it. The courses are for the most part, still the same as they were decades ago. The only thing I await is when all the palms on the property grow to the size they once were. I can remember the huge amount of shade there once was. But they are on their way back. There's a good amount of color around the courses, which was nice to see. There's a small area for birthday parties near the counter and there was a party going on when we got there. Nice to see it isn't all about electronic games to celebrate a birthday. And you know what? I think the course is even more challenging to me now as an adult. Guess I'll have to get back there often to get back in the swing of things. read more

This place is by far the best putt-putt I've been to. Plus it's a certified historical site. I've been all over the US and due to the simplicity and at the same time challenge of putt-putt, have taken part in many courses. The price is about $8/person and there's 2 courses to choose from. All holes are very well lit and the greens are super clean. One of the things I really enjoyed was the throw back decor and architecture as well as all water structures working. Usually those are dry when you go to putt-putt courses. The couple that runs this location are super nice. It was fun to chat with them a bit before and after playing. Def going to make my way back here more in the future. read more

What a wonderful and historical place. Very friendly environment and workers. A little hidden gem in San Antonio with lots of beautiful plants and water around you. Highly recommend miniature golfing here. You can even collect stamps to get a free entrance. They have light snacks like granola and chips along with some sodas and energy drinks for purchase. Enjoy this place! And remember to get a putt putt that is lower than your belly button! read more

Such a fun and cute place!! Came in the evening since there isn't much shade. Lady up front was very nice. Price for adults was $10. Not bad at all. You get to choose between two courses. Restrooms were clean. Love that they sell snacks and drinks. Will definitely be back! read more

Cool Crest Miniature Golf Course - The pressure - Mini Golf Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Cool Crest? Where else can you go to play mini-golf and have music that leads you into the Lindy Hop? I grew up less than a block away from Cool Crest, so I became very familiar with both the front and back course. On some weekends, I used to play both courses if I had enough dollars and change. That was many moons ago in my school-age years. Fast forward to today, Cool Crest has been reopened for the Jefferson and surrounding community. Each fairway is just as I remembered - even the challenging holes. You can tell the putters and a few of the balls have seen more pristine days, yet they do the job. The course does have some hazards you'll want to be aware of beforehand: 1) falling debris from nature that clogs the pipes and steals your balls; 2) mosquitos, so bring repellent; 3) skunks, don't go near them. Get the manager/owner, and he'll redirect the fellow with the leaf blower (no skunks were harmed, and no humans were sprayed); 4) user errors - you probably see or feel the ball before someone yells FORE! If you're looking for innocent entertainment, then this is the place. read more
