Baytowne at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

The course was damaged by a storm two days earlier. No warning. Traps were GUR and the course was cart path only.

Don’t know what was going on with the greens but they were in terrible shape not what I would have expected from such a highly recommended course

For as nice of a resort that sandestin is, the baytowne golf course is on the struggle bus.

The absolute worst golf course I have ever played ! If you read this review and still play…. You’re an idiot. The bag drop guys said that the course is unplayable because of the greens. I called and booked tee times, the whoever in the pro shop did not say anything about how poor the conditions were. After nine holes of putting on gravel, we called it quits.

I asked for a full or partial refund……the whoever in the pro shop said well since you played nine there will be no refund because you should have quit earlier?????? You can’ make this crap up. Emerald Bay, Regatta Bay and Indian Bayou are a thousand times better and cheaper! DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tee boxes were great fairways great easy to spot trouble off tees I enjoyed the day with my son

Greens, in fairness recently sanded, are very poor. They were poor in the spring when I played it and at that time had not been sanded or aerified. Condition of bunkers is terrible. Fairways & roughs are OK. I’ve played here a couple of times a year for about 20 years, and this is the worst condition I’ve played it in, especially for late summer. Going elsewhere from now on.

The staff was courteous. The course was in pretty good shape but the greens were not the best. Overall it was a good outing.

Yeah the greens were hairy after being punched but always a great place to play.

People were wonderful, the course has looked better. Greens were very rough. Overall though it’s a pretty layout and fun to play.

Nice layout. Front side went well. However the back side was a different story. Ran into a fivesome on 10. No offer for our twosome to play through. Very frustrating and surprising for a resort course. No ranger in sight. Also, several holes on the back on the other side of the highway not up to the standards of the front side. Overall, a good experience and would recommend. Staff was friendly.

The greens are in very poor condition. This is what pulled down my rating. The rest of the course is excellent. The course is overpriced even at Hot Deal level with greens in such poor shape. I hope they are able to recover as we like playing there, but we have no plans of returning until rectified.

Played with a member who was very helpful and friendly. It was extremely hot, however cool beverages were available and that was a tremendous help.

Greens were shabby. Some short grass, patches of weeds, ball marks. Unlike the last time I played the course.

Suggest you check with the course prior to booking.

There are some courses in Destin with faster greens and slightly better grass, but Baytown has the best layout with elevation change, ocean views, and just enough water in play.

The greens were horrible. The course is closing this week for maintenance. Not the time to play when this about to be done.

Fairways were great. Being on the green? Not so much.

Bumps, grass clumps, no grass, ball marks. Being prepared for aeration.

But if it were in better condition it could be a fun course.

Greens were overgrown and not well maintained at all.

Greens were in terrible condition. Many weeds in the turf, and poorly maintained.. Extremely slow and inconsistent. Greens status ruined the experience. Paid $100 to play the course, and had a $30 experience.
