Raven at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

For the four courses at Sandestin Resort, Raven has always been my favorite. I got a good deal because of aerated greens but they weren’t as bad as I expected at all. Bad conditions, but course still played well. I definitely would recommend this course if you’re in between playing a cheaper round and places like Kelly Plantation or Regatta Bay that have steep prices.

Greens recently aeireated. Good price. SMALL putting green for TWO courses. SMALL driving range for TWO courses..

Course was in amazing condition and very challenging. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

Greens were better than expected. Played early and course was on damp side.

Have played this course now three times. After checking in I went to the range where I had to wait about fifteen minutes for one of the eight bays to open up. The range balls had not been washed as the majority of them were muddy. They just pick the range and put them back into the baskets. They had more than half the range closed (see pictures). With two courses (Raven and Baytowne) going, only having 8 spots to hit from on the range is an incredibly dumb move. The bathroom in the pro shop was out of order too. The course itself was in good shape and pace of play was good for a resort course.

Because of recent rains it was cart path in the rough which slowed down play. But course was in great shape, Greens were slower than the week before which took some adjustment. Each hole has a unique challenge. 5 par 3s that are very short but are incredibly challenging for birdies as well as double bogeys.

We played on a damp day and had the place to ourselves. The layout is great and the conditions were very solid. We greatly enjoyed the round and look forward to returning.
