Very clean, ample parking, wonderful staff. We stopped here for some mini golf while visiting the area for my spouses birthday. It's fun and a unique stop. They are open (January) which is new? But it was a wonderful sunny Saturday so I'm glad they were. The games and rides are nostalgic. Pricing is fair (and cheaper than southern Oregon) You can tell they care to share the experiences they enjoy. Everyone was so fun to work with. I love the humor and chat. Will come back 100%. read more

I asked for a refund cause I could not go go karting with the rest of my friends. I tried to return the tickets and they said there is no returns even though they tried to get me to go with other people that's not part of my group. Terrible business I would not recommend and the golf course is a joke. Ownership is terrible. read more

We stopped by on my honeymoon mid Saturday to enjoy the mini-golf. Their sign said open 11-4pm and we arrived around 3:05pm - they stated because it was after 3pm we could not golf. The cashier in the booth stated they would be open the next day (Sunday) and to try again. When I asked about the 5 minute delay she gave us an attitude and we left. We arrived the next day to see the same open sign, written in pen on a white board, and upon further inspection the second gate was closed. We had to go to their website to find out that they were closed for rain. We stayed in the area to see other attractions (the high ropes course down the road was still open). The day turned out to be beautiful and only rained for a few minutes in the morning. Ultimately we were unimpressed and disappointed with the staff and hours. Maybe next time. read more

Pretty expensive considering. I would recommend the mini golf as it's 18 holes and beautifully laid out. The rest of the attractions are expensive and don't last very long. My son wanted to do the go karts but was too short so was disappointed. There was barely anyone there so no wait and no lines which was nice. read more

Far exceeded expectations. Mini golf was fun and the go karts some of the best I've been on (quality of karts, track, and length of ride). Especially surprising was how well maintained everything was....from the equipment, general cleanliness, and plants/flowers around the park. Will definitely be back. read more

Took our 5-year-old grandson here on Thursday and he had such a good time we returned on Friday. Perfect amusement park for younger children with a surprising selection of rides for a 5-year-old. The main activities for older kids are the go-karts and mini-golf, which are both very popular. I took my grandson on the go-karts with him as the passenger, and he had a great time. FWIW we spent about $50-$60 on each of the two days we went. The staff at the park operating the rides are very kind, understanding and friendly. Makes a big difference with small kids. Highly recommended! read more

Captain Kid Amusement Park - The small roller coaster is very popular - Mini Golf Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

My kids really like this place, if only for the go kart racing. The price is right and it's literally on your way out of Seaside so we make it a point to stop here every time we head home. It's not superly packed, yaaay, and even in the middle of summer when everyone and their mama (literally kids and their moms) are here, the lines are tolerable. This coming from the mother of an impatient 2nd grader, carries serious weight. Anyway, go in line, get tickets to whatever your munchkins (or yourself) want to play, they have several different options including mini golf, rock wall, gyroextreme machine (at the ripe age of 40, this thing makes me dizzy just watching it spin. Hard pass!), a family friendly roller coaster, as well as several attractions for the littler guys. There are limited concessions on the lot and things are not too crazy expensive. The only real problem my teens had was with the port potties in the summer. Barf! All things said, this little amusement park is pretty sweet and we love coming by here on our trips to the coast. Recommend? Why yes, yes I do! read more

We had a great time riding the go carts. The staff was fun but firm about the rules and we got to go around quite a few times! My 14yo daughter had never driven before and had a blast! A good time! read more

Such a fun place! So nice to have an amusement park on the coast and not have to drive hours to do something.. my family loves to go here. 10/10 recommend the Go-carts my son loves to ride in the passenger seat and they give the passenger a little flag to wave Rollercoaster is perfect for kids who have never been on one before starting out and even older kids to go on a ride! The park is super clean and maintained you can tell the staff work hard to ensure everyone has a good time. read more

Small attraction that's perfect for children. They have several rides that are toddler friendly, a put put golf area, small rollercoaster, rock wall, and go cart ride. They take care to sanitize all of the go carts between rides and maintain social distancing. Everything is outside, so wearing masks is recommended but optional. The workers are friendly and very patient with risk adverse kids. My son was hesitant for many of the rides and the attendant volunteered to turn on the ride to show him how they move. They offer cold beverages and ice cream (in waffle cones). Sturdy plastic picnic benches are spread apart in the middle of their center, so you can enjoy ice cream while keeping an eye on your children. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

We stopped here on our way out of Seaside. It was fun for the kids. They have 2 activities tha adults can partake in (mini golf and go karts). They were a little pricey, for what they are and some of the rides don't seem very safe. They were severely understaffed, but the employees that were there were very friendly and seemed to be in good moods. We would visit here again. read more

Good place for kids under 6, older kids won't have many options other than Go Karts and Putt Putt Golf.

Prices were a complete rip off for quality of what was being offered. Staff seemed like they didn't want to be there either.

Very fun! Perfect during covid since we haven't been able to do much since March. Not much to do, but was a great stop for my 4 year old. I think we stayed an hour. Service was great. Everyone was really friendly. read more

Captain Kid Amusement Park - Roto whip $4 - Mini Golf Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

We came here with a large group of family for some fun for all ages. We bought the tickets necessary for the activities we wanted to do and started with a round of putt putt golf. It was decent although the course was tiny and holes were crammed together. After that we moved on to go karting. It was our 10 year old sons first time and he was super excited. We read and understood then signed the waiver regarding rules and liabilities. Once it was our family's turn, we got started and after the first corner, he bumped into the wall with the cart and the race was called to a stop. The impact was minor so I didn't think much of it as I watched from the spectator area. Once they brought all karts to a stop, they pushed my son's kart back to the pit lane to get him unloaded. I then attempted to go thru the gate and into the pit area to confirm that he was okay and help him get unbuckled. I was yelled at over the PA system and stopped just inside the gate by a rude teenager who told me I was not allowed in the area. I told him that was my son and that I needed to check on him. He said nothing more than you aren't allowed in here. There were no other vehicles in the area, all other karts were still stationary and it was completely safe and reasonable for me to go and tend to my son and his injuries. We got him to the other side of the fence, I went to our vehicle and retrieved a disposable ice pack to apply to his sore wrist. He was in a significant amount of pain and distress, more than just a simple bump would've caused. We decided to take him to urgent care for X-ray and it was determined that his wrist was fractured. Never did the staff check on him or on us to confirm that he was okay. They were nothing but rude and condescending to me and our family. I will never be back and will warn everyone I know that this place is poorly run and unsafe and to stay as far away as possible. I am not a Ken just writing this review because my son hurt himself. We knew the risks and were completely ok with them. Not upset at all that he was injured but it is unacceptable for the staff to not allow people to tend to their children when incidents like this happen once the scene has been made safe and secure. There was no effort whatsoever to do this. This makes me believe that they don't care about the safety of their patrons. There aren't many other options in the area for this type of entertainment so if you decide to go, proceed with caution!! There was also a broken plastic manhole cover directly in the path of patrons that was casually marked with an orange cone. Someone is going to fall in this hole and break their leg. Yet another example of this shoddy company not caring about the safety of their guests. read more

This place was a lot of fun!! My kids loved it and we had a great time there. The prices are a little high even for Seaside but overall I would totally go here again! The go carts are nice because you can do single or double, so if you have younger kids they can still ride. It's a little loud when all the go carts are parked so be aware if you have kids who don't like loud noises. read more

This place is not only fun but following CDC guidelines for sanitation. The park is keeping employees and guests safety in mind with cashiers using gloves, sanitizing stations located in various locations, and additional hand washing stations. I appreciate gloves changed for money and ice cream exchanges. Fast food restaurants are not being that careful! I felt really safe considering all the current issues. The clubs & golf balls are sanitized frequently. Very clean and fun little course. It appears the course has been updated. There are no issues as the ones pictured in previous reviews. read more

The nastiest, most hostile attitude I've encountered. We were travelling in the area as visitors from out of state and came upon a huge open field. After exploring trails and areas of scenery, my friends and I thought this huge open area of trees were for the public for us to briefly shoot a reenactment movie scene. while we were on it, we were met by Bruce who came screaming for us to get off. We apologized and informed him that we thought this was an open resting area. One of my friends asked, "I'm sorry about that, sir. Can we ask you a question?" And he irritably replied, "what? What do you want? I'm working!" And my friend said, "May we have five more minutes to wrap up." He screamed, "NO! GET OFF MY G*DD*AMN PROPERTY! Get your own d*mn property!" We stared stunned at the hostility from an innocent mistake of being on a huge open nature area where there were no signs of prohibition and no fences (we always try to make sure the areas we are on are not private property). My friend went to pick up one of our materials for our scene and he sarcastically said, "helloo!! You're going the wrong way!" He then shockingly said we were the ones who had bad attitudes. So glad we didn't go to his Go Kart establishment after. Discovered this was his. What an incredibly uncomfortable and uncalled for encounter. EDIT: Hi, Tammi. Thank you for a prompt response. You mentioned it was unethical to leave a review of a business without having ever visited; on the contrary, as a professional business owner it is essential to maintain common courtesy and respect on and off the clock because who you are is a representation of your establishment. Our encounter with the owner had actually deterred us from coming, because we planned to after we were done. We were surprised to discover just who it belonged to. Bruce immediately started screaming and yelling without even coming to inform us, "Excuse me, ladies, are you aware that you are on private property?" His immediate unfriendliness was the true unethical way of conversing with fellow human beings, especially ones who made an honest mistake. Even after apologizing and we gathered our things to leave, the hostility and impatience increased. As I mentioned, 1) We had no idea it was private. As travelers, our focus is making sure whether or not signs of prohibition are in place. We have no problem leaving premises that do not belong to us, as they are not ours. I believe, agree with, and hold the utmost respect to ownership and private premises. To assume we felt entitled to someone's else property has revealed you did not read my review of us harmlessly mistaking an open field of nature was public, and, upon being made aware that it wasn't (no matter how disrespectfully) have apologized and left. 2)- Your frustration of previous experiences of squatters, vandalism, and litterers is understandable. However, Bruce has utilized these frustrating experiences to become disrespectful to any passerby who may not know it's private. 3)- The last four sentences of your response was truly heartbreaking. I hope the littering and squatters cease as you both have worked hard and should enjoy your land. But, in the future, do not allow yours hearts to become irritable that any encounter you have with fellow humans is met with unprovoked hostility. Best of luck to you both. read more

Horrible experience. Will not be back again. Customer service is bad down to the owner. Child left in tears.

A smaller place, but not too bad. Played a round of mini golf with the family, but it only took 15 minutes, as the course will fit inside most parking stalls. My only real complaint is the 3 employees standing right at the entrance and each one had a cigarette in their mouth. When I mentioned it to the young woman taking money, she stated, "I've asked them to move but they wont." Hmmm, don't make me ask... read more

Come for the Go Karts. I thought they were well maintained and mine didn't stop so I had fun! Went with a 5 yr old and teens. The mini golf didn't really hold their interest but the 5yr old loved it. The course itself is sparse and needs a lot of TLC but for $5 a game, it's great on your budget. Located off of highway 101 which can be a pain when there is traffic (always during summer season). read more

Captain Kid Amusement Park - The holes were not challenging enough. Lacking in the creative & whimsical aspect that I associate with mini golf. - Mini Golf Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

I really waffled between 1 and 2 stars. Then my husband asked me what I would rate this place if it hadn't needed a lot of maintenance, and the fact that it would have gotten 2 stars in that situation dictated this rating. Now, I love (and seek out), miniature golf courses, so this hurts me a bit to feel this way about this place, but here we go. To start, it's located both next to go-karts (pretty standard for this kind of thing), but it's also located next to a helicopter tours company. I'm a bit noise sensitive, but the helicopters we LOUD, and it didn't make the experience enjoyable. The mini golf course itself was pretty mediocre with small, wood-framed holes. The wood's paint had mostly flaked off, and a lot of it was falling apart. A couple of the holes had the greens bubbling up with the seams peeling back. The holes themselves had flag markers that were sun-worn, but the issue was that some of them tilted in such a way that if you hit the ball to them, the flag wouldn't let the ball in. If you removed the flag, you had a 50% chance of your ball popping back out. We compromised by holding the flag at an angle away from whoever was trying to make that final putt. Each hole had some worn obstacles, but I admit I was a bit unimpressed when one of the obstacles was literally a few orange traffic cones set on the green. The biggest course decoration in the center was a lighthouse. The ambiance was completed with the extension cord running from under the building to the main payment shack to power the light on top. A couple of the holes had those spinners for "fun" rules that I included a picture of. The address listed on their website / yelp was incorrect, but this was located just a bit farther north on 101, and it was visible from the road. I submitted the change to yelp, but I don't think it took because of the website listing this other address (which pretty much takes you to a gravel yard). The guy running the payment shack was friendly. It looked like they had some sodas / other beverages for sale as well. Bathroom was a port-a-potty. read more

I almost NEVER leave reviews unless the service was outstanding. Today, as I was driving by this beautiful open field, I decided, along with my two sisters in Christ, to recreate a movie scene. This field looked like an open public field and had NO signs indicating that it was private property. Being that I enforce private property signs in the state where I live, I absolutely thought this was open to the public as a nature field. It was also located behind the restaurant establishment where we had lunch after. While making our video, the owner of this establishment came out on his riding mower and failed the first order of human decency to speak to us with respect and began screaming at us three ladies in such a disrespectful manner, that it completely caught me off guard. It was a simple mistake that we made due to the lack of posted signs. Immediately upon finding out that we were on private property, I asked the owner if I could speak with him, but he spoke with me in such a harsh and disrespectful manner that I continued to gather my things and leave immediately. We continued to apologize as we were being yelled at. As I read through these reviews, there is a common complaint about the owners attitude. I'm hoping that he will take the time to consider these complaints and make the proper adjustments because it reflects on his business. I wanted to go there after we ate, but this left me so unsettled as we ate lunch. read more

So much fun! They've done a great job of renovating this Seaside gem. We love the variety this stop offers. They've got Go Karts, Put Put Golf, Kids rides, and so much more. I haven't had that much fun in a long time!!! Thank you Captain Kid! read more

It as super fun to bring our 7 year old here. We will be coming back, for sure. It was not crowded at all so we got to do everything we wanted without any delay. The activities were really fun.

This is my first ever review, but felt I needed to write it in case it might help someone not have a bad experience like my family and I did. The staff members there are mean, and nothing is well cared for either. I wanted to go on the go karts; its $10.00 a person. My younger brother was going to go with my Mom, so he cost $5 to be a passenger. The lady who we bought the tickets from at the ticket booth for go karts only gave us three tickets not 5 that we needed even though she knew how many people were going, which we didn't understand but she knew how many of us needed tickets, so we just went with it. My mom though that maybe we missed calculated or there was a discount she didn't know about. However, when we went to get on the go karts the owner said, "You need 2 more tickets" and made a big fuss about it, like we were lying about the ticket booth lady giving us only 3 tickets instead of 5 for us to ride the go karts. So, we went to go get more tickets. When we got to the ticket booth the lady that originally gave us the tickets wasn't there so there was another lady that gave us two more tickets after paying. After that we got on the go karts and I only went two times around the track before a kid that was going to fast around a corner bumped into my kart, so I pulled over and I was pushed back into the shed. The manager/owner walked up and said, "We're going to kick you out so we can keep the race going." My mom tried to explain why I had stop driving to two different staff members one being the owner, but they weren't having none of what she was saying. They didn't care. They said we were wrong, and we were being nasty about it. We were just frustrated and upset about the situation. Not being nasty as they called it. They had no empathy for the situation just took our money and made me feel bad about myself and made me cry. It kind of ruined our whole end of our vacation. I thought I had done the right thing because that's what I thought the paper I had to read before I drove a kart and sign said to do. ABSOLUTELY NO BUMPING, AND IT SAYS IT EVERYWHERE TOO. I thought I had done the right thing by pulling over and stopping my Kart. I'm 11 and it was my first time. I was very nervous about the go karts but wanted to give it a try because it looks like fun. It's not! The track is too small, and no one enforces the rules. I tried to stay on one side and go at my own pace like they said but felt I couldn't and felt like I needed to go faster than I was comfortable. There were way too many cars on a too small track to go at your own pace especially if you're nervous. People/young boys were not paying attention; just going as fast as they could no matter who was in the way and didn't care about the rules. I thought I was following the rules by stopping when I got bumped; no one explained to me that wasn't the case and that I should keep going. They just took me out of the race, not the boy who bumped me. He should have been kick out and they should have made the rules more clear and encouraged me to keep driving. They are just in it for the money not for kids to have fun or to be safe. I know this because they wouldn't give us a refund or give me my tickets back to do something else. At least they could of giving me a chance to do something else, and not made it out to be my fault. I wish I had read all the bad reviews before I came (however the owners always commented back to the bad reviews making it seem like it wasn't their fault, and they were sorry; not! They are fake). It seemed like a nice place, but they have a secret, that's what they want you to believe. It's just to get your money. I think most people who come only come once, and don't come back because they find out that it's NOT A NICE PLACE, and the staff members are mean and the owner especially. If you have a first-time go kart rider, don't come here; it's not safe! The bad reviews are right; don't come here and waste your time and money. Just keep driving by. I'm sure they'd be glad to take your money, but it's a rip off because it's not worth it or your safety. I have a video of what happen to me on the track my Nana took (I couldn't post it here; wish I could have) you can see that even after I got bumped another couple of go karts were going too fast and crashed into each other too and no staff members stopped them or slowed them down. Oh and no helmets which they should have them. The roller coaster is unsafe too. My little 5 year old brother had to ride with my Nana because he wasn't old enough to go by himself. While on the coaster my Nana and brother were seated together with my brother on the inside of the seat. My Nana said she had to hold on so tight around the corners on the roller coaster so she wouldn't crash into my brother and hurt him. My little brother felt like the seatbelt bar of the roller coaster was choking him too; saying it was pressing on his neck while riding the roller coaster. Someone is going to get hurt here! read more

Only one review since 10 months ago??? Wow, did that guy have low expectations! I've been to few of these fun play parks, and this, by far is the worst, if not...I'll consider this place a #firstclass dump! Granted it's a seasonal facility, I think they ought to focus the funds on getting their shit together and fix the damn park! My husband and I went to the go-cart, that was the only 2 stars rating I can give, and found it fun and to be the only thing well maintained. The golf putting area is all real fun...no really, it's a fucking joke! I play 98 on an 18 hole golf, I put on 3 strokes at my worst. This place, I had the worse of 9-15 strokes. What a joke, with those green plastic carpeting. I checked with Lowe's and Home Depot on cost per yard in those type of cheesy carpets, it's like $2 p/yard! Let's do a quick math here, kids! Let's say per hole is about 4-8 yards on the green carpeting, and you're looking at $2 p/yard, that's about $8-$16 total. When we were there, we saw a butt load of family, and p/adult is like $5. On a seasonal time for this facility, you're probably looking at $500-$800 p/day. They're located on a prime busy area. Traffic passed by every, friggin, minutes! If 18 holes x 8 yards, per hole, that equals to $144 p/whole entire season! Now, let's talk about business! If their yearly tax is what's holding these cheap ass owners, perhaps, he needs to cut down on the chopper ride. If that's him also! If not, THEY CAN MAINTAIN THE FACILITY!!! Holy shit, right?!?!? So, there kids...you have officially just graduated from business first class, 101! Don't waste your time and money in the putting course if they can't maintain the place. #failedservice #holyshit #wtf #wasteofmoney #byefelicia read more

This place is pretty AWSOME! The go karts are super fun and you get a pretty long ride. The little plane ride was cool. The staff is friendly and the prices aren't too bad! The only thing keeping it from a 5 star was the miniature golf was a little lame, not the lamest out there by far but could me much better most of the holes were just the green with a few rocks or round things in the way.
