The game that’s been thriving for more than 150 years. Since its popularity has only increased since then, Stacker opted to pay tribute to the game with a list of the best putt putt courses in each state. The data journalism hub explains:

“To do so, we analyzed ratings and reviewed data from Tripadvisor in order to determine the best mini-golf in every state and Washington D.C. Alaska is excluded from the list because there are no mini-golf courses in the state on Tripadvisor. Both the destination’s score out of five and the number of reviews the destination had were used to pick the best destination.”
