Peninsula @ Gulf Shores

27 terrific holes of Golf.
Exceptional putting surfaces, Fairways were in good condition, being totally honest some of the tees (set 3) were getting a little threadbare but this could be due to a lot of traffic, change of grasses or a consequence of lack of rain.
Its important to choose the correct length of Course for your ability as it plays long.
All the staff encountered were very efficient and friendly.
Definitely worth a visit if you are ever in the area!

Sweet Home Alabama

My wife and I played the Marsh and Cypress courses this past Thursday and had a GREAT time.

The course was obviously well-maintained, beautiful, and generally outstanding. But what took the entire experience to an even higher level were the people at Peninsula. From the clubhouse personnel to the starters and marshals, and even the other golfers, everyone was genuinely nice. As a native of the coast who now lives in Arkansas, I get the whole "southern hospitality" marketing phrase thing, but this was real.

We're already planning out next visit to Peninsula

Great Course!

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Quality conditions were to be expected and absolutely delivered for the price point. The greens were well maintained and rolled smoothly. Though the price point was intimidating for a mid-high handicapper like myself, I absolutely would've felt comfortable taking a beginner with me. Nothing pretentious or self-important about this place at all. Great experience!

Nice

Peninsula golf club did not disappoint. Despite a lot of recent rain the course drained great and was in nice shape. Tee to green the course was well maintained. Price is a little steep, however.

Great layout

First time playing this course and we throughly enjoyed it. Greens were fast and in fine condition. Just over 4 hours for the round so no complaints there. Staff and clubhouse were top notch. When we visit next time we will definitely play it again.

Fun but slow

They let a fivesome go out in front of us which was a bit disappointing especially since it was an early time(8:50). Course was nice and in solid shape. Would play here again.

Golf with friends. Great course.

Really liked the course. We played Kiva Dunes today and the greens were not as good as Peninsula. Would highly recommend this course.

Excellent Course and Different

At 2 PM we couldn’t get through the third nine holes. I had issues with a Garmin watch trying to keep up with the 3 nine holes. Need to play the course again and have time for all three courses.

Beautiful Course Begets Beautiful Game

Somehow I just seem play better on a beautiful course. I feel lighter, more fluid, not weighed down by the brown fairways I have currently in my home state. Absolutely loved Peninsula and would recommend to any skill golfer. It offers many challenging opportunities. The staff were amazing, fun, upbeat, and helpful. My group were scheduled to play 18 and wait 2 hours for a member event to get started before we could play 9 more. Because of the great pace, we finished the first 18 early and the staff in the Pro Shop allowed us to go out ahead of the member event to finish the last 9 holes. All around a great course and and a great experience.
