    $10 cash or $12 credit card per adult. Kids $2 cheaper. There's an atm there. There's 2 different courses -- fantasy or forest castle dragon. You can only choose 1. Fantasy (faces sea wall) seems more for young kids but we chose the forest dragon (towards the back) bc it has more shade and being it is july and super hot and sunny you want to consider it. There's like 20 holes and no fans. No ac. Get ready to sweat, especially when you're frustrated too at the end you get one $1 off coupon per party for sno cones next door. Sno cones are actually pretty cheap and yummy! The smallest size is big. I had the mango Mary. Yummy!

    This place is so fun, and a must-visit. It is just a classic, old school miniature golf place with fun designs at each hole. You will be hot and sweaty and uncovered, so stay hydrated. We enjoyed the ocean view while we golfed. Afterward, we had snow cones from a truck by the parking lot.

    Putt Putt with an ocean view. I have passed Magic Carpet on several visits to the island and can truly say this is not only a beautiful location to mini golf but also a very fun one. Cash ONLY so come prepared or be a sucker and enjoy those non ATM fees (sucker here!) As many note there are two Courses. Course 1 being easier (especially if you have little kids). 18 holes of awesome scenes; from a spring animated ostrich trying to put his head in the "hole", a giant pink conch shell, an egg laying chicken, a "ball" walk across the deck of a pirate ship, ending with hit your ball into a giant fishing eating a frog that if you hit a ringer in said frogs mouth you win a free round. Nothing appeared run down, I could see weathered but that salt watery air wreaks havoc. It kept my husband and I and two kids (4 & 8) very entertained. It's $10 bucks an adult and $7 bucks a kid under 12 I believe (don't forget that CASH ONLY part). If you Happy Gilmore your putt putt club you cough up another 10 bucks (you've been warned, its putt putt so just have friendly competition). This was definitely worth the trip for our short spring break stay on the island.

    This putt putt golf course has 2 courses from which you can choose to play. One is easy and the other is hard. Each course consists of 18 holes and the cost for an adult to play either one is $10 (cash only). I played the harder one (Course 2) and yes it was difficult but still fun. All in all the course was in good condition and in my opinion worth the fee. Course 2 had elevation changes in it and the other course probably does to. Also, behind the complex are batting cages that charge $1 for 10 throws. I give a 3 here because the golf course is A-OK.

    Magic Carpet is the BEST mini golf course we've played so far! My husband and I have picked up mini golf as we travel to new places. I'd say we're fairly seasoned and can say with confidence that this was our favorite course yet. We came to Galveston on a whim for a beachside dinner to celebrate his birthday. As we were cruising up and down the seawall, we noticed this course. We were a little disappointed to see it was cash only, but luckily I had $20 which was just enough for us both to play. We later noticed they also had an ATM, so if you're comfortable with that and cashless, you'll still have a chance to play. The cost is $10 per adult which other reviews have mentioned being steep, but we felt it was well worth it. You are given a choice between two 18 hole courses, one being "hard" and one being "easy". As seasoned mini golfers like I previously mentioned, we chose to go the difficult course route. It was so much fun! Unlike most courses we've played, this one actually had fun moving elements and challenges to it. There were a decent amount of hills, slopes, and moving parts on the individual holes. At the end of the course at the last hole you can also win a free game if you can land the ball in the dragon's mouth! The thing I like best about this course is that it can be fun no matter what age you are. We saw families with children of all ages, an elderly couple by themselves, and several couples around our age.

    Cute golf course right at the seawall. Some holes are more challenging than they look. Be ready however they are cash only! There is an ATM onsite if you need one. There are two sides, you choose one for $10 per adult.

    One of the better mini golf courses we have been to for sure! Such fun course layout and hazards. You will definitely want to do both sides which brings me to the downside. The price is quite high and I felt like they should offer some sort of deal if you say ahead that you want to do both. I will say though the location and parking is awesome and so it was worth the $34 for me and my son to play here. We ended up needing to kill time while on a fog delay to board our cruise ship ( you can see the pea soup in the background of one of my pics!) and this was the perfect thing to do to pass time as we waited for the boat to come in. Be aware that it is cash only!

    I absolutely loved this place. We came here on a whim and we enjoyed it! It was my first time mini golfing so I didn't really know. We did the easier one, great views of the beach and water and it was enjoyable. Each one was really cool. It was very interactive. It's a great activity especially when it gets cooler.

    Is this place wheelchair accessible? Or if someone has a hard time getting around is this place tough to walk in?

    Not exactly it has hills so it might be hard Yes it's tough

    Do you serve alcohol?

    No but there was a slushy truck outside

    How much does it cost? I couldn't find the pricing anywhere! I heard it was cash only is that true?

    They take credit card and cash. It's $11 for adult, less for kids. And really small kids are free, like two-year-old was free.

    Are there batting cages? Thanks

    Yes! They're right behind the golf course

    Does it cost money?

Everyone had a great time from the kids' play area, arcade games, glow in the dark putt putt, laser tag, and the rock wall. The party room was big enough for 20-25 people, but it was a little crowded. It was fine because the overflow could stand along the arcade games area. The pizza was amazing for a kid's party place! I was pleasantly surprised. One thing I want to mention....depending on which birthday package you choose, some come without a party coordinator. Just know that if it's a self serve party like this one was, when you arrive, order the party food and drinks immediately. No one comes in and asks for your order. You have to go to the snack bar yourself and order for the party. They will deliver to the room if it's not too busy. Overall, I would highly recommend this place. We will be back for sure!

We were able to do all of the attractions for free. We only had to pay for our arcade cards. When we got there, before entering, we scanned a QR code that took us to a website to digitally sign a waiver. When we came inside, they asked if we needed to sign the waiver, to which we responded, no, we just did it outside. But everything in the building was very clean, and the staff was very nice and professional. The lady, I didn't catch her name, told us how everything was set up. First, we tried Mini Golf, which was played under black lights, and everything was painted with fluorescent paint. I think that it was only a 13-hole course, but it was still very challenging and fun. Next, we did Laser Tag. But because there were only six of us, two being young children, we played free-for-all instead of teams. I won! Then, we did the XR Arena, which is a really cool immersive box where you play a video game. It's like Virtual Reality, without the headset. At the time we went, they had three games to choose from. You could shoot aliens or zombies, or they have a cooking game, but I'm not quite sure what it's like. We killed aliens and had a blast! Lastly, we did the arcade. They have a pretty big selection of arcade games. Not as many as Tex Fun & Social in Texas City by Gringo's, but they still had quite a few! We didn't have much time to play the arcade games because they were about to close. But the games we did play were fun. All in all, I would recommend that you stop in. It's a lot of fun and a really neat and immersive experience. It's like nothing else that I have ever experienced before.
