Windswept Dunes Golf Club tumbles across a dramatic landscape covered with white sand dunes accented by lush green fairways. The golf course appeals to players of all skill levels thanks to player-friendly features that are balanced by strategically placed hazards. Although each hole shares the characteristic of being lined with dunes, they each maintain a unique character. The rolling fairways are often wide and generous off the tee and the sand dunes, which stretch from tee too green, are only punishing of the most errant of shots. The approach shots though are as demanding as the tee shots are forgiving. There are numerous bunkers fiercely guarding the large, smooth greens. While the occasional water hazard comes into play, the bunkers are the most challenging element of Windswept Dunes Golf Club.

Well Worth The Trip

I hadn’t played here in over 20 years, and it was worth the effort. Great layout with plenty of room off the tee. Par 3’s are very challenging and the greens were in very good shape.

Fun round of golf

My brothers were in town so we came and played a round together. The fairways were really nice. My only complaints were the greens didn’t really match the cost to play. I’ve played other courses around that the greens were in much better shape. We would go back but just want to see some improvement. Everything else was top notch.

Needs time

This could be a great course in five years. The greens were immature and a little patchy, obviously early in the spring still, but could have been much better. Course layout is fun, challenging, and played half a club longer just as the staff warned. A little pricey considering the current condition . When this course fills in and matures, I’d love to come back and play again.

Windswept Dunes great course for the price

Had a blast playing Windswept Dunes the other day. Staff was super nice and allowed me to play early. Course has some challenging holes and many tee boxes. Playing the tips would be a really big challenge in the wind. I am 52 and played the emerald tees. It was challenging for me at 6500 yards. Enjoy your day at this fine golf course.

A Must Play

This is a must when visiting the Destin/Miramar Beach area. The course layout is good and the condition is very consistent. My local playing partners said the greens had been on the slower side, but they were smooth and very consistent. A very good test for all levels. Certainly a great pricing value versus the more predictable choices in the panhandle.

Great shape, huge lightning fast greens, a ton of sand

The course was in good shape, had huge greens, and a ton of sand traps- many in the fairway and most greens were heavily guarded with sand traps. Pace of play was excellent.

Beautiful layout but greens are in horrible condition at this time 😔. Staff was very nice and helpful. $12 for a small bucket of balls is absolutely ridiculous. Would not recommend this course at this time but once the greens have come back I would highly recommend.

Beautiful golf course. Fairways and tees were excellent but greens very extremely dormant. I guess recent cold weather zapped them. Staff at this facility we very nice and helpful. Fair test of golf...fairways and greens are extremely large. No doubt that this is an outstanding golf course when the greens are green and growing. Would highly recommend this track when greens are back!

Great Course and perfect weather

Love the layout of the course and tips from the starter. Greens had no grass on them so putting was extremely challenging, but I guess that was the case due to the time of the year??

Practice facilities are really awesome, but for what they charge the range balls should be included. $12 for 20 or so balls seems a little much to me.

Regardless I love the course and would definitely include this in our courses to play when visiting the area.

Very enjoyable

This course is laid out nicely. There are many tee box options to choose from. It’s a challenging course with all three sand traps and the water hazards. The greens were very quick . The staff were all super kind, and eager to help. Great time!

Great course

Raining to start the round but after the first couple of holes it was done and we were off. The fairways are really forgiving and the number of tee box options leave many different lengths the which you can play from. Greens are large and even though you hit one you may still have a lot of work to be done. The rain must have scared many golfers off because we waited on no one nor were we pushed at all. Just a very good experience. Thumbs up for sure. Will definitely be back

Great course for long hitters!

Beautiful challenging layout. Really long course the big hitters will enjoy the wide fairways and challenging bunkering. Even from the front white tees for old guys like me, it was 6000 yards. Tips were almost 8000. Friendly staff great conditions. Could have used a beverage cart.
