About
The Club at Hidden Creek is one of northwest Florida's most treasured courses. Opened in 1988, it is still relatively young but it has built its reputation on it its well manicured greens and lush landscaping. A few years after opening, a local newspaper ranked it the best golf course in northwest Florida. The course features tree-lined fairways that tumble across scenic rolling terrain. The challenging golf course once served as a host site for the US Open Qualifying Rounds. Water hazards come into play as well as several strategically placed bunkers. Although seasoned golfers are kept on their toes, the layout is more still approachable thank to four different sets of tees. The Club at Hidden Creek has a longstanding reputation amongst the local community and many would consider a visit to the Emerald Coast incomplete without it.

Great course
First time playing this course , was very impressed. Course was in excellent shape , probably the best in the area from what i have seen.
Overall review
Excellent if every instance. Beautifully kept, wide fairways, green speed a little fast at times . I would highly recommend anyone to play this course. Staff was very accommodating as well.
Rained Out
Have played the course on other visits to Navarre. Great course, first class operation. Rained all day this time. Please refund up front credit card charge. Thanks.
Florida Golf
Course in pretty good shape. Greens have been aerated, but rolled pretty well. Pace of play was painful. Many holes had one group on green, one on fairway, and two at tee box. Tee times may be spaced too close together here? Of course, that’s the way they can get more in course.$$. Overall still an ok round. We always enjoy the people at this course.
Great Course
Great Corse wide Fairways with challenging pin positions. Green’s had been aireated recently but were still in great shape. I would highly recommend this course.
Great course
Fun course to play. Course in great shape and everyone was friendly. Challenging but not too difficult to hurt playing enjoyment. Will not regret playing this nice course
Aerating greens no problem
We were informed at checking they were aerating the front nine greens so we played the back twice
Great weather great conditions great round
Get some food and you will get a 5 star rating
Other than that excellent
First hole first eagle ever woohoo
Nice course
After 3-4 inches of rain they allowed us to start at noon. Course was really in great shape with a few pools. Nice layout. Just keep it in the fairways.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Great fairways and bumpy greens
Fairways are in overall great shape. The tee boxes are hurting. The greens are fast but receptive as expected at Hidden Creek. However, the greens are the bumpiest I can recall over the past few years and putts don't roll true. I recommend giving this course a few weeks to a month for the greens to fully come in. The course condition is regularly among the top courses in the Panhandle and a great value, and I'm sure it won't be long before it returns to tip top shape again.
A Friendly Place
This is a shot makers course. Not too long, but accuracy is a must. Greens running fast and true. I had the pleasure of being paired with two ladies that are members of the course. They were very helpful and patient with an out of towner. When you get to the pro shop, Give a shout out to Sandra, she's the best. You'll enjoy this round.
Meh
Ok layout. Zero water on back nine. Front nine is better than back. But still only a three star course
Hidden Creek Navarre, FL
Other than a few spots that are currently being repaired, the course is in great condition! The greens are so fast and the fairways are very nice!
Pace of play wasn't very fun as we were waiting a long time on every hole and had people right behind us as well. I guess that's understandable though when so many people are trying to play a very nice course.
Enjoyed and used every club.
Greens were super fast today. Not a bad thing but just letting you know. Challenging course and really fun. Good to play something that makes you use all clubs!!
What Happened?
Have played here for 25 years. The greens were renovated from scratch about 8 years ago and were the best in the region. But when I played yesterday, they were pretty bad, extremely bumpy, spots of Poa Annua grass in the greens. The tee boxes and fairways are even worse with Poa taking over everywhere. I can't believe they are letting this happen. Did the course superintendent leave for another job?

What happened?
Poa anna everywhere , tee boxes are uneven, bunkers are not maintained or small lakes, greens need aerated and watered. Disappointing because in years past this course has been pristine. Hope things come together soon ...
