You serve beer. Can we take the beer anywhere in the facility?

Beer can only be enjoyed in Auntie Stone’s Kitchen or on the patio area just outside of the back of our building.  Beer is not allowed on the Mini-Golf courses, at the Go-Kart Track, or inside the facility anywhere other than the restaurant area.

Who Made Mini-Golf?



There are conflicting accounts as to what prompted Garnet Carter, who already owned a real golf course, to open a miniature one in the late 1920s. His wife, Frieda, believed it was meant to distract “golf widows” — much as the Ladies Putting Club, built in 1867, did at the renowned St. Andrews links in Scotland. But Carter, who owned the Fairyland Inn, a hotel outside Chattanooga, Tenn., created more than a distraction. His course was different from other forays into mini-golf. It had hollowed-out tree trunks and gnomes. It was, write Nina Garfinkel and Maria Reidelbach in “Miniature Golf,” “a way of reinforcing the Never Never Land atmosphere the inn strove to create.”
