Top Notch
The course was in excellent condition. The greens were running fast and true. Very impressed!
It a must
Luv this course. Great layout. Always challenging. Sand in bunkers is top notch and you will play out of One or Two or Several. If it’s windy don’t expect to go low. Greens were in great shape.
Kiva
Fairways and greens were in great shape, greens do run fast, quite a challenge! Good job to green keepers
Great course
The course has a good layout. The greens are in great shape. I had a very enjoyable day. I highly recommend this course.
Must play
This course is a must play if you are in the Gulf Shores area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Keep it in the fairway, because it is tough out of the trees. :)
Challenging course keep it in the fairway to do good. Greens are tricky.
As good as advertised
Beautiful course! Greens rolled fast and true! Layout is great! Makes you think your way around!
Pin Placement
Great golf course, but today greens were lighting fast and all pins were nearly impossible to put!
Kiva
Nice track. One of the best in the area. Steelwood in Loxley and this course on my two favorites.
Great course, great location, great layout!!
In town for work and I currently live in Hawaii so I play some very nice courses. Was looking forward to playing with a great friend of mine who lives in Irvington. I drove over 2 hours from Destin where I was staying to play the course so I was hoping it was all it was cracked up to be; it was. Needless to say, we both had an awesome time even though we both didn't play too well.
The young men who took our bags were attentive and courteous. The pro shop attendant was very nice and the starter was awesome. He gave us some pointers on some holes and even drove around later and asked us how we liked the course.
This particular day, the weather was extremely windy which made the course exponentially harder. The greens are super fast and very firm...but fair.
I'm a 6 handicap and my short game is my strength and I finished with 33 putts and shot an 89. In fairness, I didn't strike my irons as well as I normally do but I didn't get the speed of the greens down until maybe the 5th hole or so.
Nevertheless, the course is excellent and if I lived in the area I'd play it quite often. It's a must play!!
Great greens, average layout, not worth the price
The greens were great - read true with nice pace.
However, the course was nothing special and I'm certainly glad I didn't pay the full rate. $76 was still way too much. Gulf Shores Golf Club is a much nicer course - better layout and in better condition for less than half the cost of the full rate.
Great course
Encountered heavy storm and 30 minutes after it stopped could barely tell it had rained. Drains really well. Fun course to play!
Course is nice, staff is not.
Let me begin by saying the course was in great shape and the grounds were very well-kept. However 2 bad experiences with staff leads me to believe it wasn’t just one bad egg. Donny the starter insisted I go out 45 min prior to my tee time bc he said ‘you do not want to get behind the elderly couple!’ He also told me which tees I’d be playing that day! Lol
I was looking forward to taking advantage of the ‘complimentary’ range balls, and assumed I could hit the range after the round (2.75 hrs since no one was ahead of me) since ‘Donny the starter’ sent me out so early. When I pulled back up to hit balls after the round I was directed to the pro shop where the kid says I can pay $20 to use the range after a round.
1. If range balls are complimentary, they are complimentary. Period. Either offer the service, or don’t.
2. Donny and the kid in the pro shop left a terrible taste to a good round of golf.
Great Resort Course
Wide open fairways with trees and hazards on the sides. Some carry over shots needed over shrubs, etc.
Fun course to play, not to mention the course was healing nicely after aerficiation
Great Course
Kiva is a great place to play. It's a great layout and was in great shape even though the greens were punched recently. Play it if you get the chance.
