Course Highlights
Indian Bayou consistently impresses with beautifully maintained fairways, true-rolling greens, and a tight tree-lined layout that rewards accurate ball-striking. Exceptionally warm staff, smooth rounds under three hours, and outstanding value make this a top Florida Panhandle destination.

Rocky Bayou is a great alternative to more expensive Destin Courses

It’s a little removed from Destin but I really enjoyed the layout and overall experience. Greens were in great shape. Would recommend it.

Great experience

Took my Dad here for his birthday. He loved it. It was my second time playing it. The layout is my favorite in Destin. I would pick this course first to play again while in Destin above the 2 other more expensive courses I played.

Really nice course.

Great course especially for average golfers. Mostly open except a few holes that have trees making the landing area seem a little tighter. Greens rolled great. Will play again.
