Length 6931 yards

Slope 137

Rating 73.8

Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort offers four 18-hole, championship courses designed by three renowned architects. Raven Golf Club, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., was carefully carved through marshes, native wetlands, and towering pine forests. Jones created a layout that is hailed for being both modern and traditional. It is also notable for how it seamlessly flows into the surrounding nature. The golf course offers plenty of variety both in shot options and visual scenery. The diverse holes are accented by dramatic changes in color and texture throughout the landscape. Water comes into play frequently and there are a number of strategically placed sand traps. Golfers are presented with a myriad of different ways to play each hole, which means thoughtful strategy is a necessity. The golf course's large, undulating greens also make proper club selection essential.

Best course at Sandestin

Have played all 3 public access courses here over the years during February & Raven is consistently in the best condition. Do need to be aware of wet areas in green approaches so frequently need to take an extra club for approach shots. Outdoor eating area unfortunately is dominated by cigar smokers. Range balls are provided but are poorly cleaned. Bring a damp towel as towels are not provided on carts.

First Time Playing

Birthday Golf

Played The Raven as part of my birthday trip. I enjoyed the golf course. Only thing that I would change is the greens. I thought that they were a little sticky.. They rolled out well except for around the cup, everything slowed up the last 20 inches.
