Slow

Took 3 1/2 hours to play 9 holes. Waited every shot on every hole. Can only imagine how long it would take without rangers.

Home of Slow Play

I’ve played this course twice in less than a week. Each round was well over 5 hrs. Waited on every shot for two rounds. 8 minutes between tee times doesn’t work for average golfers. These people spend a minimum of 15 - 20 minutes on each hole.

I love this course layout and the green speed. That’s the only reason I return.

Top Notch!

Always a fun and challenging course to play with friends. A little windy at times, but the course was in good condition overall. I wish people would sand their divots more. Need more trash cans on the course for our beers cans, too.

S L O W

I have played this course many times , love the layout, conditions are usually very good, but today was ridiculous. It took 3 hours to play the front nine. Even though the course was crowded play should never be that slow. I called the pro shop while waiting on the 6th tee with 2 other groups - 2 hours had already passed. The ranger did come by on #7 and said that there were no gaps, just crowded. Strongly suggest they change their tee times to have. at least 10 minute gaps instead of 8. Not going to have many golfers returning to play again. Not fun to wait that much for any round.

Nice track

Has 3 nines, played Dunes, and Vista, Dunes were tough due to rolling fairways, sand bunkers, but great shape. Vista was more open and flatter lies, all had great greens rolled true and fast. Great place for the $$

Great Value for Area

I love the layouts. Played Dunes to Vista. The course is in dormant time. The greens are mostly dormant Bermuda. They are quick and roll fairly true. Firm plenty of grass on putting surface. Fairways were fair, some tight lies. Lots of sand in bunkers, too much in fairway bunkers and rarely raked by players. Best bang for the buck in the Gulf Shores area in March. Will play again soon.
