Oaks at Ft. Walton Beach Golf Club

The layout of this course is great. Unfortunately, the course is in pitiful condition. Construction for a underground pipe was done yet. No repairs were done to the course. The greens are in even worse shape and completely covered in Poana for most of the greens. Definitely not what this course was rated. They should give a discount for the condition of the course.

Lots of places to play in the panhandle of Florida. I opted to head into Ft. Walton to play the Oaks course (had played the sister course there many years ago). It's everything I love about old courses. The layout is interesting, there is length, shot-making, water, sand, great trees and landscaping. The pride of the people who run the place shows all over (assuming a lot of ex-military which would explain a LOT about how well it seems to run). It was fun and I'll certainly come back.

Living on the gulf, its hard to find am affordable place to play. Ft Walton Golf course offers the best option. I have gald to see a cart person

Oaks course needs some tender loving care. I didn’t notice any part of the course that didn’t need improvement.

The workers we interacted with were courteous and knowledgeable.

Really good layout just not great for putting which has crab grass overrun on them

I have played this course many, many times. Generally I like it. But this time the greens were very grainy and there was still much poa annua in the greens. I have reviewed this course several times and always have commented that 1) the fairways and around the greens need much more grass - they need to be seeded - the lies are extremely tight and 2) there are areas where there is just bare soil/sand in the fairways and I have said that those areas need to be filled in, seeded or sodded and staked off until the sod and/or seed has established itself and 3) I have pointed out that there is very significant eroded areas on 5 and 16. They have staked off some of those areas but I see nothing being done to repair those areas. I urge the course management to fix these issues and improve the palying conditions of the course.

Ok—I play here every once in a while, and really enjoy the course layout. BUT, for now most of the greens are full of a clumpy grass that makes it difficult to enjoy them. It wasn’t like that last time we played. They’ve got a real problem on their hands as it makes putting like your on a washboard. Too Bad!! It’s got some really fun and challenging holes.

Hopefully next time they’ve remedied the problem. The green fees are really reasonable, especially when you use GolfNow’s Hot Deals!!

My 13 yo son and I teed off at 7:45 am and finished exactly 4 hours. The round overall was really enjoyable and relaxing. The greens were not in great shape, very inconsistent and bumpy. The layout was interesting and had variety. Overall a nice experience to enjoy with my son on vacation.

My wife and I enjoyed the course. I walked a good bit of the course and would have walked all 18 if I was by myself.

The greens do have an invasive grass but it wasn't horrible. Putts were bumpy, but some greens and lines were just fine. Don't let the greens scare you away.

I would definitely come back the next time we visit the panhandle.

No pro shop. Staff not friendly. fairways and greens filled with weeds. No grab’n’go food. Restaurant on the same level. Priced a bit high for conditions

Over all course is good. Greens very difficult due to multiple budding grass types. No putt will roll true.

Nice municipal facility to knock off the winter rust. A couple nice practice areas and a range. Course(s) are both fun and a great value.
