Cape Mini-Golf: Arnold's in Eastham

Mini-golf was very popular during our recent Cape Cod vacation. We made it to the mini-links no less than 3 times in the week we were there. I'll start with the most recent outing at Arnold's Adventure mini-golf in Eastham. In a week where the temperatures pushed 90 most days, a rarity for the Cape, the shade at this course was welcomed. This was a fairly challenging course--though my brother-in-law and I both managed a hole in one--with quite a few balls needing to be retrieved from the "water hazards".

Many of the structures on the course pay homage to various aspects of local Cape history. These displays had potential to be interesting, though I must say we were to busy keeping up with our 5 year old to notice too much.

This course is right on Route 6, conveniently located near Cape Cod National Seashore beaches. We combined mini-golfing here with a trip to Nauset Beach to check out the impressive post-"Hurricane" Earl surf.

The smell of fried seafood wafts onto the course, as the mini-golf is located next to Arnold's Lobster & Clam Bar. We had plenty to eat at home for lunch so stayed strong and passed on the restaurant, but certainly seems like it could be a nice combined outing.

Tips: $1 off/player coupons can be printed right from the Arnold's website or also found in the "Kids on the Cape" publication. Like the other mini-golf courses we visited at the Cape, this is cash only.
