I Recommend This Course
One of the better courses in Destin
Indian Bayou is currently in great shape. Tee boxes are well manicured, fairways are taken care of and the greens roll true. Played a very quick round in under 3 hours. Highly recommend.

Best deal in town
I played this course with my college-age son. We had an amazing experience. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The course was beautiful, and the greens and sand traps were in great condition. It is a bit more secluded and less "touristy" than some of the Sandestin courses. We loved that vibe. Lots of beautiful pine needles covering the tree-lined areas off the fairway. I would recommend it to anyone.

Still a good value for well maintained course
Looked at other courses in area. This one is a sweet spot of really solid shape with a value around $50-75 less than comparable course. No gimmick holes, only knock is no real memorable holes or signature I can think of.
