From the reviews
We had an absolute blast at this park! The combination of mini golf, go-karts, and an exciting arcade made for a fun-packed day that had something for everyone. The mini golf course was well-maintained and creative, the go-karts were fast and thrilling, and the arcade had a great selection of games to keep us…
Mini gold was a ton of fun, pretty nice course. The go karts were decent but I don’t think all of them are in the same condition because some were way faster than others even though the gas pedal was all the way down on each of them. Prices are fair and it’s a nice way to spend some family time or a date night.
They were extremely accommodating to my 2 year old who didn’t want to ride the kiddie rides after I purchased them. They put the money back on our rider card and took extra time to get him secured into the go-karts that he chose to ride instead.
Emerald falls family recreation center is a must while in Panama City beach. My daughter and I loved playing the arcade games and the staff were extremely helpful! Make sure you make a stop by.
