Nice challenges great staff

First time playing this course and it’s a first class operation. The check in was quick and easy, bag drop convenient too. Starter was helpful with tips for someone not playin here before. The pace was right at four hours. The course was in good shape with true roll on the greens. Only suggestion I would make is to have the beverage cart people go backwards against the flow of golfers. You get to see them more often as we saw them twice yesterday.

This course has potential

Holes were too close together, we felt like we were dodging golf balls. Could do a better job identifying holes

Awesome Day @ Kiva Dunes

Booked at the last minute while vacationing in Orange Beach. Had great weather, staff was super friendly, course was in great shape. The cost was definitely worth it compared to the course we played the day before @ Craft Farms. The Cypress Bend course looked like a distressed Muni in comparision.

Would certianly recommend.

not ready for early tee time

I love the course but warm up is important to me and their range was not ready. I get hitting off of mats this time of year, but the mats were not out nor were the balls. I had about 5 minutes to hit balls before my tee time!

This course if fun to play.

The PRO shop staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They even got us off 45 minutes before our scheduled tee off time. We were going to grab a quick bite to eat in the dining room. That was a mistake! The waitress had an attitude and it took them 30 minutes to prepare a hot dog which was their special. In addition to that the hot dog was over cooked and not good. 2 hot dogs, 2 cokes were $28+ dollars. We ate dinner for less than that. I would recommend the course but not the dining!

Great day at Kiva Dunes

I love Kiva Dunes!! Great course and the weather was great as well! A little on the pricey side, but well worth it on a perfect day.
