A Hole-in-One for Fun: The Krazy Golf Experience
Krazy Golf, located at 257 W Broadway in Waukesha, WI, isn't your average miniature golf destination. Boasting a solid 4.6-star rating, it’s quickly becoming a local favorite for families, date nights, and anyone seeking a unique entertainment option. What truly sets it apart is the inventive course design – patrons consistently rave about the creatively themed holes, emphasizing their challenging and unpredictable nature. One reviewer specifically called out the Legend of Zelda hole for providing a particularly satisfying (and frustrating!) challenge. While some wished for a full 18 holes, the novelty and artistry more than compensate for the smaller course size. It’s an experience designed to engage and entertain, moving beyond the standard windmill and loop-de-loop expectations.

Practical Considerations & Customer Feedback
While overwhelmingly positive, some feedback offers valuable insight. The venue can get crowded, particularly during peak times, and some describe it as a bit pricey. Despite these minor drawbacks, most visitors find the overall experience worthwhile. One recurring suggestion involves improving temperature control, as the venue can feel warm, especially on hot days and with the added warmth from alcoholic beverages. A customer proposed selling neck fans as a potential solution. However, despite the occasional wait and the heat, patrons continuously return. Krazy Golf is open Friday and Saturday evenings until 1 AM, offering a late-night entertainment option, alongside other days and times noted through their contact number (262) 232-8279.
