I am by no means an avid golfer, but I can throw down on a mean round of mini-golf! Whether you call it putt putt or mini-golf, this is a fun past time all ages and skill sets can enjoy.

Growing up in Allegan I remember the closest mini-golf course was located in Plainwell just off M-89 and was called Putt Putt's, if I recall correctly. That was about our only option when it came to mini-golf despite numerous failed attempts to get a mini-golf course going behind the now-closed Shiver Shack in Allegan, which never took off for some reason.

A mini-golf course located at a brewery?! That's my kind of golf course. What was formerly Lazer Land has been acquired by Presidential Brewing, but don't worry-- the taproom and mini-golf course are open to all ages. You are welcome to play the mini-golf course anytime the taproom is open, which is Wednesdays and Thursdays 3:00-10:00 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon to 10:00 p.m., and Sundays from noon to 8:00 p.m. Cost:  $2 per game with purchase of food or beer
