Lani finally remembered to bring the Disneyland Hotel: The Early Years 1954-1988 home from work.

According to it the Par 3 golf course and miniature golf course were taken out in 1970 to make way for construction of the Marina Tower.

Other information from the book:

Official name was The Magic Kingdom Golf Course
Official address was 1125 West Cerritos
Al Appplegate, an art director at Disney Studios was the project manager.
First hole was a replica of the Main Street railroad station
Hole 2 was an unknown Fantasyland theme
Hole 3 was a replica of the castle
Hole 4 was the 7 Dwarfs' mine
Hole 5 was Mattherorn Bobsleds (and represented the beginning of the Tomorrowland holes since that ride was considered part of Tomorrowland back then

Hole 14 Tom Sawyer Island
