Great Value

There are a couple of greens not in great shape but overall the course was in good shape. The star rating and previous reviews had me nervous but they really have done a good job of getting the course in shape.

Not a fan of the two nines starting several minutes from clubhouse. There was no cart girl on the course on Monday and it was a real pain to get to clubhouse for snacks and bathroom between nines.

slow play

Nice staff. Conditions were OK; played worse.

Won't come back due to the very slow play.

Even saw 4 carts playing one hole.

Slow Play.

Play was very slow. Course needs some maintenance. Some grains were good. Some greens were bad. Some fairways were good and some fairways were terrible. We even saw an eighth out there Probably will not return to play that course

Making a solid comeback!

BWB is making a comeback, course is getting better, the greens are very true and roll nicely. The day we played was extremely cold and windy so we played at our own pace which was great. A couple holes still need some TLC but overall a lot of good holes with a sold nine holes of golf on the Bay Course, a very good value for the money. Would recommend

Great value for a nice course

We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the course was. Much better value than the courses closer to Miramar Beach. You’ll enjoy this course but look out for the teeny, tiny greens!

Pleasantly Surprised

The last time I played this course I was somewhat disappointed. I have played it off and on for several years and the last time it had definite issues on the greens and fairways. I was somewhat concerned about bringing some different friends for this outing. Well I was pleasantly surprised at the improvements since my last visit. I hope to play here again soon.

Turn Around

What an excellent turn around this course is making!!! Had a blast with some buddies as the golf course is really starting to take shape with the overseed. Looks amazing and the greens are starting to roll better. Some holes are stuggling but I'm sure they will turn around as well. Would recommend this golf course in its current condition. Price was just right =)

Good fairways and tees

Most of the greens were of average speed. Only a few of the greens were not smooth with defects. Fairways and tees were well maintained.

Nice course but…

Really nice layout and friendly staff. However, the front 9 greens were in horrible shape. Back 9 greens were in better shape but just ok at best.

Don’t waste your $$$

Honestly, im not sure what was worse. From the tee boxes being nothing but sand hardly any grass, or the greens that may or may not have grass on them at all. This place would be fun if they cared about it. Sad
