Good value close to interstate

More hilly than perceived, water not an issue, had a great time with My Sweet Valentine. First ever eagle number 8, will always remember.

Lots of houses

Even though it is winter, the course was in good shape. There are some elevation changes from tee to green on a few holes. It is not a tight course, which is a good thing because most of the holes are lined with houses. You get a tour of homes as well as a round of golf. Staff is friendly. When you go out on #1 you don't come back to the clubhouse till #18, so I guess it would be termed a "links" course. On a scale of one to ten with ten being the best, I would rate this course a six.

Nice experience

Would play this course again. Not too challenging we had a relaxed round - played in 4 hrs - had a beverage cart out. Not bad for a Saturday warning do not count on god call for directions - as ours took us to some housing development and they say it happens all the time.

Great Fairways

This course has some of the best fairways in the area; they're wide and most of them are immaculate.
The greens were aerified several weeks ago and they're still covered with a unique top dressing, but I thought they rolled ok.
Three out of the four par-3's are really great, dramatic holes.
This course is definitely worth the short drive over from Mobile or Pensacola.

My First Time

The course was very well layed out between the beautiful homes. There is ample room on the fairways so a slight miss hit will not get you into someone living room. The food was good, and everyone was friendly. My complaints were that you had to cross too many streets between holes, and that the first 3 of 4 holes greens were very rough.

Great value

I was very skeptical when booking the round, based on the price. Driving into the course, based on the surrounding housing, I had even more reservations. Arrived early so I took advantage of the driving range. The balls were in good condition, the range was average at best. Noticed that a large group of members were getting ready to go off, thought it was going to be an extremely long day. The starter asked if I would like to go off early and get ahead of the group. One of the nicest starters I've ever come across, took time to give me an overview of the entire course. Found the course to be in excellent shape, greens were good. A few had some dead spots, but overall rolled well. Came up on a couple groups of 2, but was waved through. Finished and was greeted by the starter again. Can't say enough about his kindness, definitely will go back if I'm ever in the area again.

Good value in dapne

a cool morning but starting to warm up. I was paired with a father and he's son, who lived in the subdivision, nice people. Course was in good shape considering it was just 29* yesterday. The holes were fun and not to hard, a couple were vary scenic holes like 17 were the tee box was above the green some sixty feet or so with a little pond beside it. I will be playing this course again!

Every hole is a different challenge.

Every hole is a different challenge. Lots of hills, slopes and dog legs. Nice scenery also. I enjoyed that fact that no two holes looked or played alike, I used almost every club in my bag.

Interesting Course

We had a wonderful experience on the well established, very interesting, course. The course offered many subtle challenges that forces you to strategically play each shot. The staff was terrific, most helpful and genuinely interested in our first time experience on this course. The elevation changes seem very unusual for Gulf Coast courses. We definitely will be playing this course again.

We really enjoyed playing it . It is hilly with dog legs both left and right. The greens are undulating but roll true

Elevatios

My first time playing here and I used Golf Now.com. to purchase my round. The staff was friendly and helpful.
I enjoyed the challenges of the slightly tight fairways but I was in awe of the elevation changes on a course in lower Alabama. The course winds through the neighborhood and there are some holes that are blind tee shots.Overall I enjoyed it and would play here again.
