About
Marcus Pointe Golf Club tumbles across 600 acres of rolling woodlands, which is a rare occurrence in the mostly flat Panhandle area. The back nine is where golfers really begin to notice the dramatic undulations. Earl Stone, who has designed several Gulf Coast golf courses, created the layout. He has built his reputation on building playable and affordable courses. While water may not come into play often, golfers will still be kept on their toes by the numerous sand bunkers and an abundance of trees and of course, the tricky angles and elevation changes throughout. The golf course is challenging but fair with a playability that appeals to golfers of all skill levels. The greens are well manicured and keep all abilities in mind. Four sets of tees make Marcus Pointe Golf Club even more accessible.

Improvement
Great layout fun course to play, still a bit of work to get the greens back from the January freeze ( 10 inches of snow). Got value for the money.
Huge turnaround
I've played this course for a long time, and during my last round about three months ago, the greens were in rough shape—almost completely dead. This time around, I'm happy to say they've made a huge turnaround. While there are still a few spots on some greens that need work, overall they've done an amazing job bringing them back. It's clear a lot of effort has gone into the restoration, and it's paying off!
Greens
This course has come back from worse than bad to way above PAR. However the greens took a beating from the 10 plus inches of snow back in January. They are in the process of repairing patching and expanding the greens. Other than the greens current condition, this course and staff are absolutely 5 STAR. Come play and enjoy Marcus pointe golf course.
sunshine state
Marcus Pointe is one of my favorite courses to play and from tee to green it is still awesome. They experienced some problems with the greens and over the last few month's the maintenance crew has done a fab job in bringing them back. The greens should be in great shape in a few weeks.
The Home Owners
Dude out there walking his dog and giving free balls and kids telling you nice shot after you smash one. This place just feels good :)
Awesome Course
The course layout is challenging and tests all facets of your game. Definitely will visit again.
OTHER THAN A FEW GREENS THAT WERE STILL RECOVERING FROM THE WINTER STORM I FOUND THE COURSE TO BE A LOT OF FUN. I THOUGHT THE LAYOUT WAS GOOD WITH AN FEW GOOD RISK/REWARD HOLES THAT FORCED YOU TO REALLY WEIGHT YOUR OPTIONS.
WILL GO BACK NEXT TIME I AM IN TOWN
Good course
Fun course to play. There were some issues on the greens with bad spots Fairways have some issues but overall still good place to play
Great Layout
The course seems to be coming into form. The fairways are great and the greens are being repaired. I like to see this course in 2-3 months.
Course was great from tee to bunkers. But the greens?
Overall I really enjoyed the course. I played as a single with another threesome.
Course layout and difficulty was spot on. Challenging yet enjoyable with the splendor you find in Florida
Greens were in a big place. Areas with dead grass and sand due to typical effects from humid areas and constant mowing. They provided a discount at the pro shop but were misleading when they stated the greens had been punched. The discount didn’t cover the frustration of the greens.
We had to play grenade golf on the putts. Get it close and it counts. Apart from the greens, great course. The greens will heal but…
Green time's
This course has been brought back from the graveyard, witch speaks volumes for the grounds Crew and management. New ownership a couple of years back has rebounded this course and are currently healing the greens from the January snow fall. In addition to snow damage they are also expanding the greens surface area, which will further enhance the course.
Greens
Tees and fairways good greens were patchwork and may need 6-8 weeks of care hopefully better then
Saturday Morning with friends
Overall this course is great, however at the time we played the greens were still in disrepair due to a blight that killed the grass. They are working on getting them to top shape but will take a little time. Looking forward to playing back here in the fall.
