Fun Course

My Son and I have played the Oaks before and it was first time playing it's sister course the Pines. Overall we had fun. The staff were very nice. The weather was excellent. The greens were not in very good condition but it is early spring.

We will definitely go back in the future.

Fun course to play

Always like playing the two courses at Fort Walton . The Pine's greens were in poor shape as well as the Oaks this time of year ,but still one of my favorites .Price is little high if you don't get tee time on Golf Now. Play it if you have a middle handicap.

Good Potential

Third February in a row we have come to play these two courses and all three years the same.....no overseed on greens or fairways! Very sparse and not enjoyable, will skip next year unless we hear of changes.

Grear FL course

Great course in good condition. A bit long due to no roll out. What you see is what you get. Super friendly staff and a nice restaurant. Even had a cart girl on Wed afternoon with $3 Bud. Will definitely be back to try out the Oaks course

Good for a quick round!

Played first thing in the morning and was done in just over 3 hours. Played the Pines the first day and Oaks the next day. The second day I was done in under 3 hours. Both courses are challenging. Oaks is tighter with smaller greens. Pines is more forgiving but longer. Both courses were recently aerated but still in decent shape. Great place to play if you want to play early and get done quick. Will definitely play again.

Good option

Expectations were pretty low based on price. I was pleasantly surprised. It's a great value for the money. We played the Pines course. Tee to green not very challenging. Greens were difficult due to speed. Very slow!
Staff was nice. ProShop is huge. Definitely will play it again.

Fun course

Fun course to play and really open. Greens would hold a ball and putted pretty true. Friendly staff and good pace of play. Played a lot of courses around Destin and for the price this is by far the best. If you want a good course without paying a lot I would recommend the Pines course for basic to intermediate players.

Course under repair

The pines course was full so they recommended the oaks course. It was scarcely populated due to greens being repaired. I finished 18 holes in 2 hours but 70% of the hole you couldn't get a true putt or read.
