Our Story

A quiet lighthouse escape, tucked in the neighborhood

Lighthouse Miniature Golf has been a quiet, well-loved corner of Waukegan for close to four decades — a peaceful, beautifully landscaped 18-hole course built around a working lighthouse feature, cascading waterfalls, and small themed structures tucked among the flower beds.

The compact, technical layout keeps every round fun and challenging, whether you grew up putting here or you're stepping in for the first time. After dark, the fairways transform under colorful lighting for an entirely different — and a little bit magical — evening experience.

The Adventure Trail

Small course. Big personality.

Every hole is designed to reward creative putting and a second look — winding through waterfalls, gardens, and glowing bridges.

What our putters are saying

"Our go-to summer tradition. The waterfalls, the flowers, and that lighthouse in the middle — the kids never get tired of it."

Megan R.

"Played here as a kid in the 90s and now I bring my own kids. Still charming, still perfectly kept, still challenging on hole 14."

David P.

"Going after sunset is a whole different vibe — the colored lights on the fountains make it feel magical. Perfect date night."

Priya S.

"You'd never guess this tiny lighthouse course is tucked in a neighborhood. Immaculate landscaping and the friendliest staff."

Tom K.
