Cypress Bend at The Craft Farms Resort

We paid 159 each and you had to literally pound the ball on 20 ft putts. Lucky if they rolled a 5 on meter. Played a couple courses in area and was in much much better condition. I would consider this a no next year.

We were trying to figure out what courses to play while down in Orange Beach and stumbled upon Craft Farms. The course is set in a gorgeous area and has 36 holes. We played Cypress Bend. Mind you that it had rained a ton over the past few days but the course seemed to handle it well. We were off path except for #10 and #11. Greens seemed soft and receptive but didn’t leave much of a pitch mark. I think that’s due to the Bermuda greens and the moisture. Overall, I think the course was in great shape. Only wish would be for faster and firmer greens. Pace of play was slow but the marshal came around a few times to keep them up to speed. Cart girls came around plenty of time. I think we played in around 4.5 hrs so I’m content. Would definitely play this and test Cotton Creek next time.

Course was in great condition, staff was very friendly and attentive even with the high temps. Course is a little pricier than some in the area, but is well maintained compared to the area.

Only complaint is the location, it takes some time to get there and back home. I played well so it was worth it!

Challenging but fair design.

Everything but on thing was awesome. The golf carts should be nicer for what you pay. 2 carts and no charging port worked. Also surprised no gps.

Golf shop check in was quick and efficient. Starter was friendly and helpful for first time visit to course. Was told that there were plenty of water and bathroom facilities on the course. In addition was told that cold towels were available at the turn and that beverage carts would be rotating on each nine holes. It was a hot day- after playing the first 12 holes and not seeing either a beverage cart or towel service I called the pro shop to inquire if they were having a staffing issue. I was assured that they were available- finally a cart showed up around hole 14 with a service rep with an attitude and essentially no inventory to help hydrate - I finished the round totally dehydrated. To sum it up the golf was okay but after considering the amount charged for the green fees and the lack of promised services I can not give a thumbs up for this course. Totally overpriced and overrated.

Fairways were great, greens were slow, tee boxes need work. Other than that the whole place was great. Staff very friendly. Was paired with a couple from Nashville & we had a great round

This was a first-class experience! Every staff member encountered made an obvious effort to make us feel welcomed. The course was in excellent condition.

The course was in good condition and the water was a challenge to play against but it was very fun and I would play it again

Very nice course with nice staff all around. Paola was very helpful.

Nice course and the staff was awesome.

Thanks for the great service Paola!

We visited here from Michigan and the staff was amazing. We had lunch in the restaurant before the round, which was delicious. The course was not in the greatest condition, the fairways were very hard in some spots, and the greens were so fast! I would play the course again but the price was too high for the condition it was in.
