Beautiful

Better play the Course
Golf course in terrific condition!!
Greens are perfect, absolutely awesome!
Kudos to the course management and staff!!
Beautiful
Beautiful course, super friendly staff. Greens super true and fast. Loved it. Couldn’t believe had basically whole course to myself on a Saturday morning
Very good
The course, because of its location, is very flat. It was in good condition the day we played and was not crowded. In fact we almost had the place to ourselves. I would say for the average golfer it's a very good place and we will play there again.
Beautiful golf course with friendly staff
Gulf Shores Golf Club was in excellent shape and is challenging and fun to play.
Love this course
New owner is doing a fantastic job. You can tell everyone that works there genuinely cares about the course. My favorite place to play in Baldwin county
What a great course
Greens were rolling straight, true and fast. Fairways and rough were in amazing condition. Some of the back tee boxes weren't in the best shape, but they are coming back very well. Course has seen a lot of rain this year. It was wet on this day, but carts were still allowed off the path. Though not a big deal at all for me, there is no GPS on the carts. I just know courses of this caliber usually have them. Staff was amazing as well, facilities were average. Had the course to myself on a Sunday with a tee time around noon. Never experienced that before!
Friendly staff
First time playing this course, very friendly staff, course was in good condition, multiple tees box options, excellent greens. Will play again :)
Been a while.
It has been a few years since I played GSGC and I was very pleasantly surprised. The course is in very good condition. The greens are exceptional. The staff was very courteous and helpful. It was a great golfing experience and I will be returning soon.
Great experience
Truly enjoyed the round of golf.
Staff was awesome.
Conditions perfect.
Can’t wait to play it again.
10/10 recommend
First off the staff was amazing! John the Marshall, was as extremely helpful with course knowledge for some first timers at the course. Conditions were super, good tee boxes, good fairways, great greens, off the fairways doesn’t punish you too bad either. Holly on the Bev cart was running circles around the course, we saw her 3 times a side. If you’re in the area, you can’t go wrong with the this track.
Gulf Shores Golf
Course was in really good shape with some unique holes. Pace of play was great, never had to wait on players in front of you. The staff was incredible friendly and one of the main reasons I would recommend this course to anyone.
beach trip
By myself, played in 3.25 hours everything better than expected. I'm taking group to play this fall.
