The 5 Best Indoor Mini Golf Courses Near Boston

Mini golf is a classic childhood activity. Long before little ones can tee off on the big green, families can enjoy a day of fun putting around a mini golf course. But in Boston, mini golf is seasonal, and even during the summer, the heat can sometimes make the activity too hot for little ones.

Enter: indoor mini golf! These courses give you all the fun of mini golf while allowing parents, babysitters, and nannies with active kids a way to escape the summer run or winter chill. In order to mini golf indoors, you have to venture outside the city, so this is the perfect activity for a whole day of family fun. Here are our five favorite indoor mini golf courses near Boston.
