This is a review of the helpfulness of the staff at East Potomac, especially the person who was in the clubhouse, Mac. I was with my 9 year old on the mini golf course and I somehow sprained my ankle on the 3rd hole. After getting me ice and helping me to a bench, Mac commandeered a golf cart, got me back to the clubhouse and then drove me to the uber. Thank you Mac!

Very fun mini golf just a half hour walk from the metro — reasonable price, laid back staff, and a clever course with fun DC-themed details. There is also a refreshments stand with sodas and beer

Very cool historic course, $15 pp to play. We went on a windy day which made for a fun challenge. The course looks deceptively simple, but don’t be fooled. The greens are pretty fast, so less is definitely more for putting. There’s a small snack and beverage stand adjacent as well, which appears to be open seasonally/periodically. You can walk here from the Wharf via the 14th St Bridge, it is a little over a mile or so. If the stand is closed, head inside the pro shop in the clubhouse to get a ball. Thanks!

Lovely course in great condition. Not too hard not too easy. $15. Can make reservation online but I wasn’t ask for it. We took the wharf jitney in November and it came right at 12, it took us across the water from the wharf to the other pier, and it took about 2 minutes to walk from East Potomac park pier to mini golf. Also has picnic tables if you need somewhere to snack beforehand. Looks like there’s a public bathroom just next door too. At 12pm it wasn’t too full but by 1pm it really filled up.

A great renovation of the “oldest continually operating” mini golf course in the country built in 1931. Lots of shade and kid friendly with car and bike parking. Small snack bar and bathrooms are in the main clubhouse. Slightly expensive at $15 for adults and $9 for kids, but market rate for fun.
