Great unless it rains
This course is a good bargain when compared with other area courses and is a nice layout . Just do not play there if it has rained in the last 48-72 hours, as it doesn't drain well. But if it hasn't rained recently, I enthusiastically reccomend it as a good value choice.
Gulf Shores CC is a gem!
Neat 18 hole track in Gulf Shores! Not too much water for the average weekend player! Many of the local courses have so much water there are few places to miss. Had a blast and I’m playing it again next week!
Great place to play
First time to play. Great practice area, balls included in round and area well maintained.
Fun layout with several challenging holes. Greens in great condition for time of year.
2 of us played in 3 hours.
Over rated
Course layout is OK nothing to be excited aboutWe have played in SC, GA, AL better course for a fraction of the price
Starter want to make sure he places all GolfNow buyers together this implies that I event if we were an hour before starting our time and for 45 minutes no want show up on the starting hole
The impact was most people were playing in twosome or alone that make our foursome to be very slow for the group following us
Over rated
The course is OK nothing to be excited about.
The starter is missing lot of judgement, we were 1 hr before the starting time but did not want us to start before our time event if for 45 minutes nobody was showing up.
I believed it wanted all Golfnow reservations to be together. Then the result was most group of players are twosome and catching up.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COURSE AT ALL.
I have played better course in Alabama and Geargia for a fraction of their fees event if it was a Hot deal!
Fun Round and Great Conditions and Speed
Course was in great shape. Temps were really good for Christmas Eve. No one on the course. Played at a great pace. Always a fun round
