In Branson, MO? It's all about Jesus and mini-golf. Professor Hacker's Dinosaur Canyon (I'm calling it "Dino Canyon" from now on) is one such contribution to the putt-puttian zeitgeist, and it is a hoot. Its name is half-right; while there is no canyon (but there is a rad volcano thing, it is riddled with dinosaurs, most being extremely, lovably derpy. If you dig a leisurely stroll through campy terrain, you'll love Dino Canyon. The golf itself is nice but not exceptional. Sadly, the dinos are mere window-dressing, not actually incorporated into the holes themselves. There are two courses: Raptor and T-Rex. We chose T-Rex as we were promised stairs and a slightly more challenging course. I wouldn't call it a challenge (we scored 49 to 47 on 18 holes), but it is nice and fun and we'll-designed. The price is pretty swell. A game for two adults is about $25, and if you keep the scorecard you can play the other course for $5.50 each. Also, a hole in one earns you a free game! Heck yeah. The bathrooms, holy smokes. So clean. Seriously, hold it 'til you get there. You'll be glad you did. If you're in Branson, don't go to a show. Go to Dino Canyon.

We ended up here because of a Groupon deal. My husband and I have been mini golfing in Branson…read morebefore and were super impressed. This course was unfortunately not up to the normal standard. Most of the holes were extremely similar and there weren't many thematic elements. It seemed to have been made on a lower budget than all the others in the area. The restaurant/mini golf combo was a cool idea, although the food is very pricey for concession stand food. The workers were all very friendly and it was nice to be on a course that was pretty empty versus the crowded courses we saw on the way. I would not choose this location again because it was not that entertaining or unique and had very little shade.

Not only were the holes a decent challenge, it was insanely scenic and was very well kept. If you're not into throwing discs you can still tag along with your buddies who throw and get some amazing hiking/photos in! We saw turkey, a fawn, and sooo many beautiful creek waterfalls. 10/10 would recommend.

The green fee is expensive about $200 per player but one course you need to add to your bucket list.
