About Great Lakes Glow Golf in Grand Rapids

Great Lakes Glow Golf is more than a miniature golf course — it’s an immersive entertainment experience designed to bring people together. Located at 3494 Plainfield Avenue Northeast in Grand Rapids, MI, we’ve created a one-of-a-kind indoor destination where glow in the dark mini golf, arcade games, and our signature Aurora Bowl combine to deliver unforgettable family fun.

As Grand Rapids’ original immersive glow golf experience, we pride ourselves on offering a safe, alcohol-free environment where guests of all ages can connect, compete, and make lasting memories. Whether you’re planning a kids birthday party, a date night, or a group event, Great Lakes Glow Golf is designed to be the place where fun happens.

Safe, Immersive, Alcohol-Free Entertainment

Entertainment should be exciting, engaging, and welcoming to everyone. That’s why Great Lakes Glow Golf focuses on sober fun — creating an environment where families, teens, young adults, church groups, corporate teams, and friends can gather without the presence of alcohol.

Our facility was built around these principles. From the glow of our blacklight mini golf course to the upbeat energy of our arcade and DDR machines, everything is designed to encourage laughter, competition, and connection.

We believe:

The Glow Golf Experience

Our 18-hole glow in the dark mini golf course is the heart of our venue. Every hole features immersive artwork illuminated by blacklight, creating a visually stunning environment you truly have to see to believe.

Unlike traditional mini golf courses, our indoor setup allows for year-round fun, rain or shine. The vibrant atmosphere transforms an ordinary game into a full sensory adventure.

For guests who want to elevate the experience, we offer 3D glasses as an optional upgrade — adding depth and dimension to the artwork and obstacles throughout the course.

Whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning with friends, every round of glow golf feels like stepping into a different world.

More Than Mini Golf: Arcade & Interactive Games

Beyond mini golf and bowling, guests can enjoy a variety of interactive attractions. Your admission includes arcade access, making it one of the most value-packed entertainment experiences in the Grand Rapids area.

Meet Aurora Bowl – Our Spin on Duckpin Bowling

While many know duckpin bowling, we’ve reimagined it as Aurora Bowl.

  • Shorter lanes
  • Smaller bowling balls
  • No shoe rentals required
  • Relaxed, approachable experience

This makes it perfect for families, kids, and casual bowlers who want something different from a traditional bowling alley. It’s easy to learn, quick to play, and keeps groups engaged.

Aurora Bowl adds another layer of entertainment that sets Great Lakes Glow Golf apart from other venues in Grand Rapids.
