We tried all three mini-golf places in Osage Beach, and I'll review all three. Putt n stuff is most…read moretraditional with windmill, plinko, tunnels, et. Almost all greens were very clean and newly laid with tee off squares. There is water, hippos, crocodiles, gorillas, windmills and hills and curves. Maybe a little older but overall most fun if you are ok with letting chance help or break your score. In 2026 it was $11 for first round , $5 for second round. Pirates Cove seems newer. It has simpler greens to navigate (less chance more skill), you have a little more control over your score, but not as unique as far as ball play. The pirates and ship are fun for pics and if you read the pirate fun facts that can be fun. It has a couple places where you can put in a quarter for fish food and feed the fish. That was actually pretty cool. It has a large waterfall as well. Cost: $13, $7 for second round, but go to a visitor brochure stand and there are coupons for $1-2 off sometimes. Last is Sugar creek. This one is best if you are looking for a quiet oasis. It reminded me of the Ewok village, as you kind of feel like the putting greens are elevated with wood holding them up. Mostly just rocks and angles to work around so you have almost total control of your score. Not as challenging, but very cool, shady, and absolutely gorgeous with neatly potted, well maintained plants everywhere. Love the miner town buildings and feel. Some leaves on the greens simply because of the number of large trees, but well kept up. Cost $14, 7 for second round. This one has a lot of steps to get down to it, but fewer steps along the way. Hope this is helpful. You really can't go wrong with any of them.

Very nice people and very nice mini course - we only played 18 holes but enjoyed it very much. Many…read morevery creative holes with water hazards!! Too much fun.
