Explore Tafton through a range of activities: Fairview Lake Mini Golf & Ice Cream and The Wake Zone are in Tafton; Wallenpaupack Lake Trail is nearby. Mini golf and simulator-based games are available alongside a trail with lake views and diverse wildlife. There are also two beer options with different profiles. For planning, it helps to distinguish between activities in Tafton and the trail at Tafton Dike: you don’t have to treat these options as one outing.

Mini Golf and Simulator Golf

Fairview Lake Mini Golf & Ice Cream has an 18-hole mini golf course and operates seasonally. If mini golf is the deciding factor for your visit, check the opening hours in advance. The seasonal schedule matters just as much as the number of holes: it describes a specific mini golf offering, not an activity available year-round.

The Wake Zone offers a different way to enjoy golf: it has six aboutGOLF simulators with access to more than 75 golf courses. The simulator system also includes mini golf, skeeball, darts, and beer pong. A sports package offers options such as soccer, basketball, hockey, and bowling. This means you can distinguish the offerings not only by traditional golf but also by the additional games. Since facility details and offerings can change, it’s best to confirm current options directly with The Wake Zone.

At The Wake Zone, the indoor golf simulators are also paired with craft beer from Wallenpaupack Brewing Company. This combination differs from the standalone mini golf course: here, simulators and beer are part of the same offering, while Fairview Lake Mini Golf & Ice Cream provides a seasonal mini golf option. The beer selection may change; ask about the current selection before your visit.

Wallenpaupack Lake Trail and Tafton Dike

Nearby, Wallenpaupack Lake Trail offers another way to spend time outdoors. The trail has a compacted gravel surface and mostly level terrain. The scenery includes lake views, passing boats, and diverse wildlife. These features give the trail a distinct focus alongside the activities in Tafton.

The section of Wallenpaupack Lake Trail at Tafton Dike is wheelchair accessible; accessible parking is available at both ends of the dike. This information applies to the section at the dike and should not be assumed to apply to the entire trail. Check access conditions again before setting out. Pets and bicycles are not allowed on Wallenpaupack Lake Trail. Keep this restriction in mind if you plan to use the trail.

Beer in Tafton

In addition to the option paired with the simulator offering, there’s a dedicated spot for beer: the Tafton taproom of Log Tavern Brewing Co. serves a rotating selection of beers brewed at the company’s Milford location. The selection changes; ask the taproom about its current offerings. This distinguishes the two options: The Wake Zone pairs simulators with craft beer from Wallenpaupack Brewing Company, while the taproom offers rotating beers from Log Tavern Brewing Co.

The activities therefore offer different experiences: a seasonal round of mini golf, simulators with additional games, a section of the trail at Tafton Dike, or a beer offering. If you plan to visit the trail, keep its restrictions on pets and bicycles in mind. For mini golf and The Wake Zone’s offerings, it’s worth checking opening hours or current options with a quick inquiry.
