Magic Carpet Golf had two incredible courses. The first was built in 1969 and the second in 1970. They were designed by Lee Koplin who also built the Goofy Golfs in Guerneville, CA and in FL (Panama City Beach, Pensacola, and Fort Walton Beach) which have many obstacles that are identical to these in Tucson. Unfortunately, this place closed in 2008. The Tiki Head was moved to The Hut nightclub and some of the other figures have been moved to the Valley of the Moon. Other figures have gone to other businesses and residences. The Sphinx is the only one remaining and it's hoped that a home will be found for it as well.
Lee Koplin built a Goofy Golf in Biloxi, MS in 1957 but this was later demolished and replaced by him with a Magic Golf. This was completely erased by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. There are other Magic Carpet Golfs with old figures in Carnelian Bay & South Lake Tahoe, CA, Reno, NV, and Galveston, TX. There was another in Osage Beach, MO, now demolished. In addition, there are other Koplin courses in Panama City Beach, FL and Guerneville, CA. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. |

| CrackerJax has two recently built courses. Some of the holes are designed with old style flavor. For a modern course, there are unique and clever challenges. For more, see their website. |
