Shipwrecked is the city’s most creative miniature-golf spot, one of the only courses in town that truly embraces a fun theme. The center also has a driving range and batting cages, and you can linger on the little links all night: Unlimited play is only $9. in the summer, and there’s a beer garden with twinkling string lights and 12 taps, plus wine and burgers. And, yes, when you putt your ball into the tube on the east course’s fourth hole, a different ball will emerge, having been knocked loose from several stuck in the pipe (now including yours). Sure, the felt on some of the holes is a little, ahem, subpar and needs replacing. The holes make tasteful use of real and faux rocks, some nice water elements, and little elevation changes to create decently challenging courses. Both courses are from the naturalist school of miniature-golf-course design: no spinning windmills or wacky obstacles. New York’s best miniature-golf offering - hidden away on Randall’s Island amid gritty highway underpasses, parking lots, and athletic fields - is more than just a golf course: It’s two golf courses! The Randall’s Island Golf Center has a pair of side-by-side 18-hole miniature-golf courses laid out beneath a canopy of trees in a lovely little wooded golf glade.
