Epically original holes, a theme unlike any I've ever seen (care to learn about Connecticut geology…read morewhile you putt?) and a tremendous layout combined with great maintenance make this a destination mini golf place. The (apparently controversial) decision to exclude the under-six crowd is the correct one for such a course, as it was busy enough on a June day when we visited that the backups attendant with little kids taking 12 shots on each hole would have made it unplayable. My downtick is the restrooms are too far away - you have to plan ahead in that regard. Yeah, it's pricey, but it's worth it if you are dedicated to this mini-sport.

We parked a bit up the street, which gave us a pleasant walk past charming homes and the low hum of weekend life in the borough. The beach itself, tucked at the southern tip of Water Street, was calm and inviting, with its shaded gazebo and views stretching across Fisher's Island Sound. Don't miss the granite memorial to the 1814 defense of Stonington stood quietly, commemorating the town's defiant stand against the British warship Ramillies. It's a modest but powerful reminder that this peaceful spot once echoed with cannon fire and resolve. [Review 1072 of 2025 - 125 in Connecticut - 24626 overall]

Beautiful Spot, But Pricing and Policies Hurt Locals…read more Dubois Beach is undeniably a beautiful place to spend a summer day--calm water, great views, and a peaceful atmosphere that feels like classic Stonington. The setting itself easily earns five stars. Unfortunately, the overall experience gets weighed down by the pricing and policies that make it harder for locals to enjoy a beach that's been part of the community for generations. The biggest issue is the cost. Between admission fees and parking charges, a simple beach visit adds up quickly. For visitors, that might be expected, but for residents who already pay some of the highest taxes in the area, it feels like an unnecessary burden. Locals shouldn't have to pay to park at their own town beach when they're already contributing through property taxes year‑round. It creates a sense that the beach is more geared toward tourists than the people who live here and support the community. Staff interactions can be hit or miss as well. Some are friendly and welcoming, while others come across as rigid or uninterested, especially when it comes to enforcing rules or handling questions about pricing. It's not enough to ruin the day, but it does take away from what should be a relaxed, hometown experience. Dubois Beach is a gem, no doubt--but the current system makes it harder for locals to fully enjoy it. With more reasonable pricing and a more community‑minded approach, it could easily be a five‑star destination for everyone.
