Pleasant place to play.

A nice place to play. Members are friendly and welcoming. Terrain is different from the courses on 98, in a good way, The price is very much a good factor in comparison to surrounding venues.

Great Value, Goods Folks

Golf Now Deals make this course very affordable compared to courses closer to SanDestin and the surrounding area. The track is nice, greens provide a nice role and are in great shape. We played twice in the past six weeks and the pace of play is really good. Driving range is good and putting green is in great shape as well. For locals like me near 30A it’s a great deal.

Pretty good shape

The course is coming a round but it’s not there yet. I’ve always enjoyed playing this course and it’s usually in great shape but there’s work that reds to be done on the tee boxes and some greens. Hole 16 is a temporary green and it has been for a while. I’m sure it will be back to par soon.
