Nice laid back course
Course was in good shape. Small driving range that is sand so don’t expect much there. Good enough to get some practice shots in before your round. Had the second tee time out so during the first 3 holes the sprinklers were on and wetting the green while putting. After those holes, no more sprinklers. For the prices around there you definitely get the best bang for your buck. Had a great time with a great course layout. Would definitely recommend playing there.
Great Value
Golf along the coast of Florida is terribly expensive! Unless you are wealthy, you need to travel inland to find value for your money. This is where Dogwood Lakes stands out. A decent course but. Very good value. I will play there again.
Great Value!
The course is nicely designed and in decent conditions for a Florida Panhandle course of less than $100. The staff is always friendly and I had a fun day. I will play here again as it is a great value for the area.
Needs work
Pretty much every green had sand on it like it was a sand trap, tee box ground was hard as a rock barely could put in a tee without pounding it in, golf cart we had was terrible blew a clutch plate on 9 when I called clubhouse they told me to walk up there and get a cert didn't want to send anyone out to our hole, thank god for one of the crew that drove by and took me up to get another cart. Course layout was great but needs some work really bad not worth 30 bucks to play
Nice layout and decent conditions
The course is fun to play. The course is starting to take shape. The green are pretty quick. The t boxes need work but mostly it’s good
Great course out in the country!
Great course for winter golf! In decent condition, gives you a good test of your game without beating you up to terribly. Budget friendly as well!!
Rough
First time playing this course and if you live close by and don’t mind being beat to death from the rough cart ride go for it. The course is not marked very well and you can drive past your tee boxes and miss them. It has an interesting layout and some holes are tight. For me it’s not worth the hour drive.
Interesting course that will be better with a few improvements
The course has a great design. The green are pretty good. The t boxes need work. I always enjoy playing here. It was very slow this time around but mostly because some people don’t know about pace of play and keeping up with the group ahead.
This course has a great layout.
Course was in really good shape for time of the year. The layout was excellent considering it was in a rural setting. Can't wait to go back when the grass is green all over when spring is here.
It’s Winter Golf - Dogwood Lakes
Great staff and owner. Met and spoke with owner about future improvement plans. Lots to do with a very small staff. Improvements will come slowly. A number improvements already made. Takes time and resources.
Most greens in nice shape. A couple spotty yet still very payable. Most good size. Most greens approach areas in good shape. A couple of holes need directional signage from green to next hole.
Not much grass in fairways. However, it’s winter golf. Interested to play it in late spring through summer. Fairway edges are well maintained into wooded areas.
Most Tee boxes in good shape. A few need some help. Tee box / Hole signage very nice. However, they provide a very nice course color map and hole description brochure in addition to scorecard. Nice job. A lot of dog leg holes. Par 5s are long. Several narrow tree lined holes off of tee box. This course has a decent degree of technically too it. Once many of the intended improvements are made that technically will make it a very nice round of golf.
Carts are gas. Old. However mine performed very well. No issues.
Cart paths are mostly and intentionally sand / dirt. Seems they work to keep them built up and smooth. Some limited concrete / asphalt in common sense areas. Didn’t impact play. Was kind of fun in an “off-roading” way. More pavement planned in future.
They had a few small sand bunkers. Mostly green side. Some fairway. Looked nice. Sand was not very deep. Firm to play out of.
Didn’t eat at grill. Several people were eating. Menu seemed pretty broad.
So, likely good food.
I’ll play course again. Want to see the increasing improvements.
Fun course in great condition
Played on a Friday afternoon. Not too busy, probably due to the cool weather. We had low expectations based on the very reasonable green fee and location, but this was the best experience we had during our time in the area. We played as a twosome in 2:45. Course conditions were so much better than the courses we played in Panama City. A few of the tee boxes could use some work, fairways were good, and greens were very nice. Stopped in for a beer after our round and met some locals as well as the owner. We had a great day and will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.
