We were the only ones at the park at the time of our visit and I'm not sure why. This place was GREAT! Our kids loved it as much as my husband and I- very reasonably priced too. We will definitely be back for some more fun! Also- it was BYOB, discreetly. Need more places like this! read more

Avoid this dealership especially the service department. They make appointments and don't honor them, they have absolutely no regard for your time and are the most unorganized garage in the history of garages. Surly service writers, brand new junk cars lined up 6 deep and personnel who could not care less about you driving there and scheduling your day around an oil change. I was actually embarrassed for them since I know it's a choice to be that incompetent read more

When you first drive up to the park you get disheartened to see how in terrible shape the park is. The sign that bares the Play Faire Park is in disarray. The sign that says Free vitamin D is cute. I am sure this park was very cool in its hay day but now it needs some major upgrades. The play holes are in terrible condition. I know we are not the best golfers, but seriously it took forever to get our balls in the holes. The place does have a cool hippy vibe which was one of my favorite things about it. I also thought the older gentleman was kind too, he let me have a little bit of his plants, but seriously, man, get some upgrades. The price is reasonable. I would recommend this place if you are just wanting to have fun with your family/friends and don't care much about winning or how in terrible shape the holes are in. It's a nice atmosphere just needs a little TLC. read more

It's a very nostalgic atmosphere when you experience play faire- it feels like you're stepping back in time! The owner is very kind and loves his business. It's family friendly too, a fun outing for everyone! It definitely could use some updates but for the price it's a good deal. read more

This is such a cute local business! We went to a tie-dye "class" and the lady that taught was so nice and patient and we came out with some pretty awesome shirts. The people are friendly and laid back, love all the kitties that hang around read more

I was sad that everyone we encountered was so unfriendly... We went for the Mini Golf + Haunted House. We were sent away from the ticket booth because they didn't offer combo tickets, and were pointed to the haunted house ticket booth for those. Then we were told to come back later and ignored at the haunted house by those working in it because their booth wasn't open yet. The booth was opened a few minutes later for a pushy Karen who disregarded us when we tried to tell her what we had just been told about the ticket booth. We left after that. read more

I love this place! Play Faire is a like a trip to my childhood ( mid sixty's). No high tech gadgets or video games just cool old vintage mini golf. 2 18 hole courses meander thru the property with great 60's and 70's music playing. There is a stage for live music( no band on the night we went) and one of the holes runs right in front of it. Great lighting strung in the trees throughout adds to the retro vibe. Very cool gift shop that features mostly tye dyed shirts. The guy at snack shack( I believe he is the owner) was a great host and loved talking about the park and its history. Will definitely be back. read more

Play Faire Park - a play area at night - Amusement Parks Near Me - Abilene, Texas

See all

This mini golf venue is simply brilliant. I came here on a whim and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect. Firstly the prices were very good(coupled with a military discount on top), next there was great live music playing while I was playing my round, and lastly it was just an awesome vibe all around. If you haven't been here and need something to do on a weekend date or family night I would HIGHLY suggest going here. read more

Great venue for local music. Great fun in a family friendly atmosphere! One of Abilene's Best Kept Secrets! read more

The best mini golf that you can get. Great course from 60+ years ago. The owner is cool and friendly too. A real bargain.

Absolutely the best place in town for family entertainment. Built in the mid 1940's to accommodate servicemen returning from WWII, it's a blast from the past. Two eighteen hole courses, with the original hazards (windmill, spinning wheel, etc.) still in place. Two party areas for private gatherings or birthdays. Trees, a fountain, live music on the weekends, smiling faces. Easy on your budget, even the drinks and candy are priced low. It's a wonderful place, and the owner loves his clientele. There's no grumpy gus at the counter here. read more

This place was so much fun. My 4 yr old and I went on a whim. So glad we did. The staff was very nice and down to earth. I will be coming back again! I will not even think of giving business to the newer less personable entertainment venues in town now. read more

Went to this place today while visiting family in Abilene. Had a group ranging from age 2-50 and we all had a great time! We had a Groupon that wasn't loading and the attendant addressed the situation in a flexible and professional manner. We bought snacks which were reasonably priced and the customer service was great! The golf itself was fun! They had hopscotch squares leading to the next (hole?). Fun! Tetherball, a gift shop, restrooms (very clean), benches and tables throughout. Overall old fashioned and stringed lights for a fun ambience! Not too many people there tonight so we never had to wait our turn. read more

Best putt-putt in town, since 1947! Take the kids and have fun. It's old and its full on character. The prices are just right too.
