Baytowne at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort
Rating Snapshot
About
Baytowne Golf Club at Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort is routed from the beach to the bay, providing stunning views along the way. The course rolls across the few elevation changes that the area has to offer. Although it opened in 1984, the golf course didn't reach its peak until it underwent extensive renovation in 2005, which were carried out by the original designer, Tom Jackson. The layout features rolling fairways lined with mature pines that are generous and times but can be tight when you least expect it. The large, undulating greens can also play faster than what you might be expecting. Water, which comes into play on 12 holes, is a prominent feature of Baytowne Golf Club as are the numerous bunkers strategically placed throughout.

Good course
Course was in good shape except for the very slow greens due to overseeding. However 3 holes on the other side of 98 were closed due to a problem with the tunnel. No one in the pro sho or starter told me about this. If I knew this when I booked the round I probably wouldn’t have played.
Do not play it now.
We are down here with family for Thanksgiving and Baytown was the best deal. I’ve played it several times in the past. But when we show up they tell us that we cannot play holes 13, 1415 because the tunnel is out of order so we can only play 15 holes instead of 18. I called the morning of our round to confirm our teatime and they said nothing about it. They did discount us, but that was a disappointment. Seems like they could’ve made arrangements to get us across the highway for three holes and then back. Also, the course and the driving range were very wer because they had been watering it for the over seeding,and the greens were very slow. . Just a little bit of care and it could be better.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Your feedback helps us do better. Thank you for visiting Baytowne at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Curse the sink-hole
At check-in, we were told 3 holes were closed because of a sink hole blocking the way to 3 holes. Disappointing. Other than that, enjoyed the day.
