Review-

Farmington Miniature Golf is a great location to play a fun game of miniature golf. The course has beautiful flowers spread throughout the course and is incredibly clean. I visited the location on a Thursday night around 7pm and it was not that busy. We did not have anyone ahead of us but we did have someone behind us. My girlfriend, Heather, was a bit slow because she was new to the whole experience.

The business has been around since 1962; however, the course itself looked brand new. The actual faux grass did not have any overused marks and was completely unwarped. The paths between each whole were brick and pavement and was not broken in any portion. As I said before, the location looked brand new.

The holes themselves were very easy, even for a miniature golf course. Most holes were pretty straight forward without much trickery.

The ice cream parlor next to the course had a 28 flavors and some were really interesting. Heather tried an interesting mix. She got half cotton candy and half Kahlua chocolate chunk. She said that the cotton candy tasted exactly like cotton candy which sounds horrible to me and the Kahlua chocolate chunk was incredible. I, being the classic person I am, went for strawberry and it was as good as any strawberry ice cream I've had.

The ice cream parlor was a bit expensive and I forgot to ask if the parlor offered a military discount. While eating the ice cream, outdoor seating in front of the parlor was offered in the way of picnic tables. Also, there was multiple benches around the perimeter of the course to sit and eat while watching people miss two foot putts.

Overall, Farmington Miniature Golf and Ice Cream Parlor is a great time. The course itself is pristine and flowers spread throughout the course are beautiful. The owners definitely take the cleanliness of their business into heavy consideration. Also, the ice cream parlor was very good as well. Lots of interesting flavors and toppings were offered but the price was a bit high.

If you feel like reliving some childhood times, Farmington Miniature Golf and Ice Cream Parlor is a great choice and the military discount is just a great way to sweeten the deal.
