    I came here with high confidence thinking I would win in mini-golf against my girlfriend but left with slightly lower confidence after she took home the trophy against me. I was looking for something fun to do and came across the idea of playing mini-golf. I searched online and found this location not too far from home. When my girlfriend and I arrived, you could see people practicing their golf form from outside the establishment. We walked inside and were greeted by the team members. They asked us what we wanted to play to which we replied mini-golf, what difficulty we wanted (easy or hard), and sent us on our way. The course is an 18-hole challenge for some, and a walk in the park for others. With this being my first time, I played well during the first 9 holes, but not as well for the remaining 9 holes. Despite not playing the best, the course was amazing. The holes get more difficult as you proceed, but the creativity scales higher on each one. I had a wonderful time going through all 18 holes! Overall, I had a great time playing mini-golf. It was an amazing experience that I won't forget, and the scenery looks beautiful. I'd recommend anyone who wants to have a great time to come to this establishment! I will definitely be returning to take back the trophy against my girlfriend.

    I thought I'd write an update. The short Par 3 18-hole course is still a lot of fun, especially for beginners and those who can't shoot straight. (GUILTY.) The miniature golf courses are a lot of fun, too. The north side mini course is great for beginners and for younger players. The south side mini course is tougher and more challenging, even for more advanced players. You'll encounter some ramps and obstacles on your way through. Nothing too difficult, but not easy, either. Both the golf course and the mini courses are reasonably priced and well maintained.

    Golf and I have an understanding. Neither of us takes the other seriously, so we get along fine. Smiley's is exactly the kind of place for that relationship, and this business has been there for us many times. Want to work on your swing, working your way through the bag as you go? Grab a bucket of balls and find an opening, either on the turf (with rubber tees) or further down the line off of the natural stuff. A 'super' bucket is like 140 balls and costs you $20, while a 'giant' is something like 75 balls for $10.75. That's a pretty good recreational value, and you can even socially distance while enjoying yourself. Smiley's also has a couple of miniature golf layouts, always a summer evening hit, and a great pitch & putt executive course. Al Czervik said golf courses (& cemeteries) are poor uses of real estate, but they're great places to get out and enjoy time and nature with your friends & fam.

    Took a spontaneous trip out to Lenexa to play some mini golf. Smiley's never disappoints. It was busy but the staff was on their game. We didn't have to wait at all to start our game. The grounds were clean and well kept. There were new covid protocols in place as well. Despite the covid protocols it didn't hinder our fun. We will certainly return to play again.

    I have golfed; full course and mini here numerous times. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The golf course can be challenging and is kept in good shape. The mini golf courses could use a little upgrade. The one with the famous golf holes is quite difficult. My only real complete or more of a suggestion is they should install lighting so the mini-golf course can be played on after dark during the spring or summer months.

    This trip was a mini golf trip...not a lot of options for mini golf in the area, but Smiley's little course is great for an evening out. It is a little beat up, but for a round of mini golf, it gives you all you need. They allow you to go back around for 1/2 price. There are 2 courses and both are very entertaining.

    Look up!

    We did the "Mini Haunts". There were a few holes that were deceptively challenging. My 6 year old had a blast and made it through 16 of the holes. My only complaint was that we couldn't see any numbers or names on the individual holes and the names on the score card were a bit tricky to match up. We would totally come back!

    Best miniature golf in Kansas City! They have two courses for mini golf (one more challenging, and one more kid friendly with a Halloween theme). Both courses are a ton of fun! Every time I've been the courses are well maintained and the staff has always been friendly.

    The scary side mini golf. Great for kids learning and for a night out. The course is fun with tricks and holes but not the nicest I've played on. The green were clean of debri but they were older and there were some tears and wear under the characters that made some shots difficult. But again for kids learning this is a great place and no worries about them learning and putting too hard or too easy. This place can get busy but most people just enjoy it so you aren't rushed to finish a hole. You can't beat the price $7 makes for a good outing. You can drive a basket of balls if you prefer and that too is reasonable and makes for a fun date evening. My low rating is only for the age and wear on the courses it is a great place and good friendly service but I want real expectations the mini golf is old and not pretty but worth the trip to play for the fun.

    A nice place for range practice and the par 3 course is a lot of fun. I wish they accepted American Express.

Upon re establishing connection with the location in question my lessons were either no longer 'valid' or they were unable to find it but set me up with another swing evaluation. During evaluation I got some solid advice but the entire time was being sold a lesson plan that was all up front. Thats their prerogative but I had to pay 100 or so bucks for a 30 minute swing evaluation despite having previously paid a handsome amount for a lesson plan that wasn't finished yet. Golf is expensive as is but the entire process made me feel more like a quota for the business rather than a customer they previously had and wanted to retain. If my lessons expired that's fine but when paying that much all up front and no explanation of why I couldn't use my previous lessons left a sour taste in my mouth. My experience with the swing coaches have been nothing but positive but be warned if you need to move or if you might not use all your lessons up in a consolidated time frame.

I don't own any clubs and the associate was frustrated that he would have to use their testers. I wish they had told me to bring a glove, but that is on me. My biggest complaint is the turn around time. I ordered irons on the spot and was told the turn-around time for pickup was 7-10 days. 2 weeks later and I had heard nothing so I called. They told me that they believed they would be in the following Monday. I called on Monday and was told it would be another week. Now it will be 4 weeks from order to pick-up. I asked the associate via phone, "at what point do I hold you accountable"!? He told me that since this was a distribution issue, there was nothing they could do. There are no tracking functions for your order like you would have on other website or at other stores. Beyond frustrated with this.
