10 Indoor Places for Mini-Golf in NJ
Albatross Premier Putting
This visually stunning spot is an upscale and immersive twist on traditional mini golf—think an Eiffel Tower that makes you feel like you’re in Paris, a life-like shark that’s underwater, and a ski slope filled with what looks like fresh powder. The best part? There are live leaderboards and an innovative scoring system for family competition.
991 US Route 1, Edison, NJ 08817
It’s 18 holes of fun at this 3D mini-golf spot, and if you love the Angry Birds game and movies, this course will make them come alive. There is even a built-in “birdhouse” that you can book for parties.
American Dream Mall, 1 American Dream Way, East Rutherford, NJ 07073
Alien territories, uncharted planets, and spaceships all glow while music plays under these cool neon lighting effects—you’ll want to go here for an out-of-this-world good time. Don’t miss taking an Insta-worthy photo with their luminous murals while you work towards that hole-in-one.
American Dream Mall, 1 American Dream Way, East Rutherford, NJ 07073
Take the traditional mini-golf game to a whole new level with 15 holes and blacklight vibes throughout the course. Each room has a different theme, and everyone, from the big kids to the little ones, can have a good time playing.
Hamilton Lanes, 1200 Kuser Road, Hamilton Township, NJ 08619
The blacklights with glow-in-the-dark accents are a trippy way to play (wear white to really glow up during the game). And if you’re on the boardwalk during the heat, it’s a great air-conditioned spot to step in and take a break.
3616 Boardwalk, Wildwood, NJ 08260
Haunted Golf
Haunted Golf is like taking a trip to Disney’s Haunted Mansion—animatronic ghosts and spooky effects surround you as you play 18 holes. The story goes that all players are crashing a cursed wedding, and within the 5,000-square-foot building (located on the boardwalk), you’ll come across talking animals, a ghoulish piano player, and, of course, the creepy bride and groom. Littles may be frightened, so this is probably best for older kids.
824 Boardwalk, Ocean City, NJ 08226
Medieval Fantasy Mini Golf
Dragons, dungeons, wizards, and warlocks come to life at this indoor mini-golf course. Take a trip back in time to a magic castle with 19 holes and blacklight excitement. Don’t miss the view overlooking the sea and surf at 13th Street. And the music is rockin’ for everyone.
1336 Boardwalk, Ocean City, NJ 08226
Pirates of Wildwood 3D Mini Golf
Cool off at this mini-golf spot when the boards heat up, where you’ll feel like you stepped into another world. There are pirates, glow-in-the-dark holes, and the best part—it’s 3D.

Monster Mini Golf
Want to try something a little different? Monster Mini Golf features 18 holes in a glow-in-the-dark indoor course.

You’ll also find other attractions, including an arcade, mini bowling, a laser maze, virtual reality, and more. Hours and costs vary by location.
Paramus, Eatontown, Edison, Cherry Hill, and Fairfield
Topgolf Swing Suite
These luxury suites with golf game simulators let you tee off at some of the most amazing golf courses in the world (Pebble Beach, anyone?). Beyond upping your game, you can find comfortable lounge seating, HDTVs, and complete food and beverage service. And when you’re done with 18, play one of the other interactive simulated games available, like hockey, zombie dodgeball, and soccer.
