The greens are in desperate condition screaming out for attention. Too much foreign grass in clumps preventing any Hope for true roll.

Awful greens

We were really disappointed in the condition of the greens. We have played here before, and the conditions were not near this bad. The poa or whatever it was throughout all the greens was terrible. If it had been mowed it might have been quite a bit better. In any case I am glad we did not pay their regular fee or I would have been very upset.

Bad day for Fort Walton Beach, Oaks Course

There was no starter, I saw no ranger, there was no beverage cart and we played on a Tuesday, expecting the driving range to be open (not open). We teed off at 1:00 pm and finished 12 holes in 4 long hours.

Carts

Having to wait almost an hour after our tee time for a golf cart to become available shows a lack of investment in the clientele.

Slow Play

I play one of the Fort Walton Beach courses once or twice a month. The course is normally in fair condition, with nice fairways, but slow greens and many sloped or crowned tee grounds. The courses could be significantly better with a little investment.

This last round was really slow, though. Normally we finish in about four hours. But this round there was a fivesome two groups ahead of us. On 15 one of the golfers couldn't find his tee shot. Even though there was at least one open hole ahead of his group he took about 10 minutes looking for his ball before finally moving on. We saw marshalls on the course, but none of them appeared to ask the slow group to pick up their pace. We ended up taking 4 1/2+ hours, with lots of waits to hit.

Horrible

The staff was rude, and before I even got my clubs on the cart I was hounded for breaking the rules when I wasn’t even told nor given instructions on where to go. Then they put me and my gf behind a threesome who was WALKING the course. Horrible staff no etiquette and will NOT be playing here again.
