Rating 73.9

Lost Key Golf Club is conveniently situated equidistant from the historic downtown area of Pensacola and the pristine white sand beaches of Orange Beach and the Gulf Shores. The Arnold Palmer-designed layout was Florida's first golf course to be certified as an Audubon International Silver Signature Sanctuary. It underwent a major renovation in 2006 that included the addition of 2,200 native trees, 13,000 wetland plantings, and the resurfacing of the tees, greens, fairways, and rough. The golf course now presents a formidable test for even the most seasoned golfers. The greens are large and undulating and the flat fairways are lined with trees. There are also doglegs fairways on six holes and sand bunkers on several others. Lost Key Golf Club's signature hole is the par-3 13th hole, which requires a tee shot over water to a partial island green that rolls across dramatic elevation changes.

Winter get away

Compared to February in Ohio any golf is better. Considering playing in February, I give the course a break.

I am sure it will be in better shape in the coming months. I loved the layout, tight but fair. Greens were in good shape. Tee boxes so so. Good eat on golf now brought me there. Yes I would play it again

Great shape

Greens were in great shape for January. Variety of holes which lets you use all the clubs in your bag. Course can be tight in places. Food was excellent.

Uninterested staff

I have enjoyed Lost Key many times when visiting the area. I was disappointed with the staff I encountered. The check in person was not welcoming and charged me for range balls (new policy?), the "starter" seemed like he didn't want to be bothered! They also used to bring your power cart up and load your clubs at the bag drop. Good help is hard to find! I did enjoy the course and the cart girl was friendly.

They have lots of hazards to deal with.

In addition to the natural hazards of the layout there are massive bunkers on almost every hole: all perfectly groomed and raked, at least when I was there.
