DISNEY: Winter Summerland Miniature Golf -- Snow Course

Disney's Winter Summerland Miniature Golf can be found adjacent to the Blizzard Beach water park. Winter Summerland offers two 18-hole courses -- one featuring "snow" and one featuring "sand". Christopher, Sherri, and I did both, and chose to do the Snow (Winter) Course first. But before we get to it, here is the story of how this place came to be:

"On a moonlit Christmas Eve, Santa Claus discovered the perfect vacation spot for himself, Mrs. Claus and the elves. Everything was perfect. From towering palms and sandy beaches to majestic sandcastles and powdery snow...SNOW! In Florida?

Yes, the myth about Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park was real, and that gave Santa a wonderful idea. Snow and sun! What a great combination for a vacation!

In no time at all, Santa and Mrs. Claus moved their trailer down and built a barn for the reindeer and a toyshop. The elves, somewhat split over whether to build a snow or sand miniature golf course, built both. The Snow course was just like being at home. And the Sand course was...er...well, it was Florida. They built the best of both worlds and called it their Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course."
