Trip to Maine - Post #21: Pirate's Cove Mini Golf

Our last full day in Maine took us back to Acadia National Park for more exploring. On the way there, at the request of our 9 year old, we stopped at Pirate's Cove Mini Golf. It's a bit more expensive to mini golf here than most places, but this is a high quality mini golf course. You get what you pay for and by paying more, you get a very fun mini golf experience. There are two different courses. You can play both for a discount, comparing to paying for each separately. We played both and had a great time

Each hole is pirate themed with a placard explaining the story of a few famous pirates. This course was a great break from hiking, driving, and exploring the park. Not that there is anything wrong with those things, but when you have kids and see a cool looking mini golf course, it's hard to say no. :-) My recommendation is to hit the course early in the morning when they open. Otherwise it is likely to get busy with waits at each hole as you wait for the group ahead of you. We arrived early, but by the time we finished there were many more people on the course, including waits. Not long waits, mind you, but you will have to a wait a bit.

Oh, and don't forget to fire the cannon at the start of your round!
