We had such a wonderful experience at Nick’s Mini Golf at Dino Land in Bethany Beach! Elizabeth was incredibly helpful, kind, and enthusiastic about serving us, and her warm energy really made our visit special. The entire staff was friendly and attentive, even bringing us water to help us stay cool. Our resident had a fantastic time playing, and everyone who relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful view left with big smiles. Highly recommend for fun, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere!

This was a highlight of our most recent trip to Bethany Beach. I am not sure how we have missed it in previous years, but we won't skip it going forward. First, there's a nice playground right beyond the historic house which functions as the visitor center. It is a pretty standard climbable play structure with monkey bars and a slide. Our two year old had a good time going up and down over and over.

The next thing we checked out was the demonstration garden of native plants. It was getting on in the season so many of the species were done flowering, but there were still many late summer blooms to check out, absolutely swarming with pollinators.

Then there was a nature walk that went out into a marsh area, where we were able to see several osprey going about their business. This part of the nature reserve had little shade which made it a bit oppressive in the heat of the day, but that's just how it is when you're in the middle of a wetland.

Overall it was a great visit for families.

Very nice trails. Interesting children’s program. Presenter was not very kid friendly. In addition, when informed that toilet paper was out, simply said “we don’t have more”
