Oaks at Ft. Walton Beach Golf Club

The course was in excellent shape. The Oaks Course is somewhat narrower than the Pines course so precision off the tee is somewhat required. The fairways were plush and green. The greens were beautiful and quick. No weeds. The staff has done a remarkable job on improving the course conditions over the past 4 years. Even with the lack of rain here in the past month, the course is not burned out.

for this time of year the temperature is in the high 90s sunny the course is in great shape. would recommend that very highly and we'll go back and play it again.

Played a solo round

Course is in great shape

Best in years

Due to the weather being great there a lot of players on the course so pace was a little slow but that’s to be expected

Overall great day

Played alone on a Wednesday mid-morning. Played in 2 hours and I hit an extra ball on 3 or 4 holes. Greens were funny, one was slow and one was fast some were normal?? How they were cut? Not sure. some sanding had been done on some low growth spots but overall for the dog days of summer pretty good. Fairways were good overall. Some of the rough was tough to even find your ball let alone hit out of it and advance your ball very far. We have had a lot of rain and it has probably been to wet to cut but it is still tough to play out of. I like the layout of the Oaks better than the Pines personally. I play here when I find the GN deals for $12 to $15 and I know I can get around in my pace of play. I am one that slow play eats me up, pick a club and hit your shot! Overall I like FWB muni and appreciate the staff.

Nice staff and lay out ... Worth the money .I’d play it again .

Fairways uniformly dry...almost winter-like conditions.

This course has a bargain twilight rate at 4. It was not crowded and we were able to play 14 holes and finish by 6:45. I am sure we could have played 18 holes if we could have stayed longer.

I play this course every Sunday I absolutely love it I didn’t know that they were allowed five sums on a weekend.. I also wish they had marshals on the course to keep the pace of play going. Today was the first time in a while that I didn’t see a beverage cart normally I see him every Sunday on the oaks Course never on the Pines course but that’s OK with me however it was a little hot and humid I wish that the beverage cart would’ve came around

Staff friendly and helpful. Course in great shape. Had a great time.

Course was a basic layout, tree lined on most holes, and several doglegs. Fairways were a little dry and could have used more grass. Greens were in great condition and rolled great, a little slow. Not a lot of staff visible. Did not have a cart person, but had water available. Sand traps played better than a lot of courses. Adequate practice areas. Would definitely play again.

The staff is super friendly. The course is in beautiful shape. The amount of five people groups they let on is tremendous though, not in a good way. The people down here play super slow. No one lets anyone pass. I am a single player. I waited a good five minutes every tee box and another five every hit. The pace of play is so slooooooowwwww. Overall in a slow season of this area (if there is one) this course would be a blast to play.

This was a pretty decent municipal course. Not your typical “golf club” course, so the name is deceptive, but a decent play. The turf isn’t flawless but it was in decent shape,

Excellent price for the money. Course was fairly wide open for those that could not hit the fairway with few holes to get in trouble (water and heavy vegetation). Greens were very slow but fairways were great.

Since Im not supposed to talk about my booking experience, I will. The staff at FWB Golf Course BENT OVER BACKWARD to help me. They are the BEST. Without them, we couldnt have played because Golf Advisor booked 2 tee times for me. They confirmed 2 tee times. They billed me for 2 tee times. But they only sent the course 1 tee time. Ken and the group at FWB Golf Course really hustled to fit us in on a Friday where only 1 course was available for play because of a tournament on the other course. THANK YOU KEN AND MANAGEMENT. Golf Advisor? Not so much
