About Gatlin’s Mini Golf
Looking for family entertainment in downtown Gatlinburg? Gatlin's Mini Golf offers more than just traditional putt-putt - it's a complete family entertainment center that keeps kids and adults busy for hours. The main attraction features both indoor and outdoor miniature golf courses, making it a reliable choice regardless of weather.
Beyond mini golf, visitors can battle it out in the modern laser tag arena or hop into bumper cars for some friendly competition. The 3D theater adds another dimension to the experience, offering an immersive show that's especially welcome during hot summer afternoons or rainy days.
The facility's location in central Gatlinburg makes it easily accessible from most hotels and other attractions. While mini golf courses in the area can get crowded during peak tourist seasons (summer and fall), Gatlin's multiple attractions help spread out the crowds, meaning shorter wait times than you might expect.
What sets this attraction apart from other Gatlinburg entertainment venues is its variety - you can easily spend half a day here trying different activities. The indoor sections are climate-controlled, providing a comfortable escape from Gatlinburg's summer heat or winter chill.
For families visiting Gatlinburg with children of different ages, Gatlin's Mini Golf works well because there's something appropriate for various age groups. The attraction is particularly lively in the evening hours when the courses light up, offering a different atmosphere from daytime play.
Consider visiting during off-peak hours (early morning or later evening) for a more relaxed experience. Parking is available, though like most downtown Gatlinburg attractions, it can be limited during busy seasons.
