Surrounded by palm trees, lagoons, and waterfalls, this family-friendly entertainment center in Kannapolis has kids, families and community members enjoying 18 holes of mini-golf and a whole lot more! Check out their drone video of the entire facility.

🌋 Complete with a mesmerizing volcano that occasionally erupts, a stunning waterfall, palm trees, and bridges, the course immerses players in a tropical paradise.

Brian Freeman, who is also a co-founder of Cannon Pharmacy, opened Jocko’s Mini Golf in July 2020 amidst the challenging times of the pandemic alongside his partners Jonathan and Stacey Prater. They just celebrated their 3rd Anniversary last weekend!

Jocko’s is the perfect place for group events and celebrations. Throughout the summer, they host various programs for summer camps, church groups, field trips, and even assisted living and senior centers.

🐵 Fun Fact: The inspiration behind Jocko the Monkey, the mini-golf’s adorable mascot, comes from a pet spider monkey owned by Brian Freeman’s father-in-law when he was growing up.
