Pretty impressive for city course

Peter nice for a city course. Greens needed cutting seemed a little fuzzy. Lots of shoe marks from careless golfers dragging feet.

Avg course in avg condition.

Played the Pines course. They were aerating the Oaks course. This is a standard muni course that will do in a pinch. Couple of memorable holes but otherwise just a flat track in fair condition. Came here because most other courses in Destin Sandestin were aerating. Probably wont return.

Great Course, but desperately needs a course marshal.

Course is great, greens are nice. However when you get stuck behind people who are also stuck behind a group of 8 it is almost impossible to finish unless you expect to be there for 6 hours…. Other than that great course.

Great Value for Area

Great course for warmup round to play the top area courses! Was in very good condition from tees to fairways to greens!

The only negative would be that there are zero memorable holes or even remotely pretty holes, just a normal muni but in really good condition!

Would play again or maybe try the Pines course.

Vacation Destination

Every few months we get the opportunity to travel from Missouri to Florida. I look forward to golfing at the Pines or Oaks Atleast 1 time each while there. Beautiful courses and the staff is very friendly. Best place to golf in the area.

Rainout

The course was nice and well kept, however I

only had the opportunity to play 4 holes.

We were rained out. This was a hot deal. I was

trying to get through to Golf Now to get a

refund, I tried twice to get through, but after

waiting a couple hours on the phone each time

I gave up. I am disappointed with their

service and will think twice about using them

again.

Nice comment. Now go play your own courses there. We got too many knuckleheads that can't golf here in town the way it is.

Nice relaxing day

Simple straightforward layout. No surprises with the information they give you at the start of the round. Conditions good for a public course that gets a lot of play

Oaks

First of the year, the course was in terrible shape. Crew has worked diligently on the greens, and fairways are filling it. Only knock, greens are still inconsistent (speed wise) Otherwise, a pretty good layout!
