Rainey day
Even though there was a steady drizzle, the course was not cart path only. Fairways and rough were in excellent condition and the greens putted well even after a recent air ration.

Great for solo golfers!
2nd time playing this course 12 months apart. As a solo golfer, I've been paired with others both times making the round even more enjoyable. Despite recent hurricane, course was well drained and maintained. Will be coming back every time I visit Gulf Shores!
