Raven at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort

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.

Best course I played all week in the area. Nothing else compared. Course was in great shape even for winter. Excellent layout, and greens in great shape. Course is normally a little pricey, but GolfNow rate made it a “steal”. Would love to play this course again!

Have played other Sandestin courses (Baytowne & Links) but Raven is the best of the three.7:30 Played early tee time (7:30) and we played in 3 1/2 hours. Holes are challenging but fair and the water although present on a lot of holes doesn't seem to be as much of a problem than at Links or Baytowne. Conditions were great and speed of greens was not super-fast but not slow either. Only complaint I have is that it's difficult to distinguish tees as the markers for silver and white look similar. Not always able to get on at a decent price but if you can, Raven is worth it.
