Fantastic experience
It’s hard to believe it’s actually winter looking at the conditions. Fairways like carpet and perfectly manicured greens. Love the layout. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality course in the Gulf Shores area.

I’m been playing this course for the last 12 years. Not once have they said they charge $35 for riders. If this is the new owner Bill Palmer policy, it needs to be stated in the clubhouse. What is the purpose of charging for a non player when it is slow in the winter.

Couldn’t be happier
The course was in great condition! Start to finish the staff were amazing. Very friendly and very welcoming. Being from out of state and a tourist on vacation it can be a little intimidating. Not here. Very friendly and welcoming, and two of the nicest starters I have ever been around! Will be back every year!!
