Mini golf is a family fun go-to, and you don’t need to have a golf experience to enjoy a day out playing putt-putt. The Seattle area offers plenty of ways to enjoy a fun game with the kids (and check out the cool and unique putt-putt course obstacles)! Here are 10 options for mini golf in the Seattle area.

Rainbow Run at Willows Run Golf Course
Part of the larger Willows Run course, this super fun putt spot is summed up perfectly on their website: “Journey with us if you dare…through this wilderness retreat of eagle, coyote, cougar, and bear. Where along the way you’re sure to find…hazards and rewards of a most peculiar kind. But if you please, stay on the trail without delay…else you may hear a grumpy bear growling, “Fowl Play!”
The course delights golfers with water features, a bear cave, and PNW-inspired putting greens. Hit up the snack bar for post-putt ice cream.
