Disney's Winter Summerland Miniature Golf

Have you ever wanted to visit the North Hole? Located near the entrance to Disney’s Blizzard Beach, is the second of Disney’s miniature golf courses, Disney’s Winter Summerland. How did it get such a name you ask? Well, as with most Disney attractions, there is a story behind it.

Late one moonlit Christmas Eve, as Santa was flying over Florida on his way back to the North Pole, he glanced down and could not believe what he saw. Santa found snow in a place that is usually hot. After surveying the strange location, he decided to build a vacation destination for his off-duty elves -- a Winter Summerland.

The only thing Winter Summerland lacked was a golf course. So the elves divided into two camps, one that enjoyed the warm Florida sun and another that preferred the snow and cold of the North Pole. In this Winter Summerland, the elves built two distinctly different 18-hole golf experiences -- a summer course and a winter course.

A treat for all ages, these two courses offer an array of interactive elements, which will delight and engage all members of your party. Have a ball and be on guard as, Squirty the Snowman, on the winter course, squirts water at you as your ball passes beneath him. On the summer course, don’t hit the slumbering Santa buried underneath the sand mound as you putt your way around.

The last couple holes of each course, then combine at the at an old log campground lodge. Here, see if you can putt your ball between the two model trains that circle below a fully decorated pine tree. As you sink your last putt, enjoy a special greeting from Santa himself! So, enjoy the ornaments hanging from the palm trees, or sit behind the reins of Santa’s sleigh for a photo op as you putt your way through this whimsical miniature golf attraction.

Winterbago is the spot here for snacks and gifts.
Hours are 10 am to 11 pm, 7 days a week.
