  • The Dusty Planet is welcome to all!

    But, The Dusty Planet is also a bar and no unsupervised children will be admitted. By Rhode Island state law, no one underage is allowed to be seated at the bar; we ID. We encourage families to visit earlier in the day; in the evening The Dusty Planet welcomes its bar-going and nightlife scene with adult programming such as The Sing-U-Larity Karaoke Night and League Night.

    The Dusty Planet is covered by artwork, if it looks breakable it probably is! Please follow the rules and use the obstacles only as intended or your party may be asked to leave. Some golf holes may be challenging for small children, if you’re unsure come by at an early hour with less crowds.

    All groups of golfers must have at least 1 adult playing with them and the max group size is 5. Parties larger than 5 will be asked to split up.

    You must supervise your children; there is no climbing, no running, and no high swings. All golfers play at their own risk. Please respect the space, artwork and the other golfers.

    There are several changes in elevation on and off the course in a theatrically lit thematic environment. There is artwork throughout including props and obstacles as well as other golfers in an indoor space, please stay aware of your surroundings. 

    There are ramps throughout and sections in the mini golf boundary tubes that are flat for more accessibility of the greens. When that is not possible the green is reachable from the outside of the miniature golf hole boundary rails. If you need assistance please alert the operators.

There are moments in the miniature golf adventure that feature mirrors and other special lighting effects like disco balls, blinking and fading LED lights and dimly lit areas.
