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.

Challenging Course
This course has drastically improved since only a couple of months ago. The fairways have grown in and the greens have never been better. Great job 👏
Our weekend group will definitely place this course back into rotation.
CCHAYES16, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Marcus Pointe Golf Club.
great layout

Great value. Conditions are getting alot better
They had some trouble with the greens several months ago and got some bad reviews. There has definitely been progress. The 12th is still pretty bad, with new sod patches scattered around. All the other greens are very good. If you play in Pensacola you know standards are pretty low so for mid $30 range youre getting a good deal here

BIG Imprivement
When this course is in good condition I consider it the best in Pensacola. They went through a rough patch a while back with some of the greens but they are coming back very nicely. Highly recommended.

Cheap round but bad course conditions.
This was our first time at Marcus Pointe, and it was a rough course. The greens had dead and rough spots all over them. The fairways were noting special. Do yours favor and play a different course.

Course needs work
The greens on this course need some serious attention. Many of the have areas with no grass. I’ve golfed this course many times and the greens seem to be getting worse. The rest of this course is in good shape.

Disappointing
Greens are incredibly bouncy and slow. #1-9 greens are better, but #10-18 are poor with bare spots, multiple grasses on the green, and basically hit it hard enough to take the break out and hope for a good bounce on the roll. Several of the fairways on the back nine hadn't been cut in several days. Definitely not worth the $43 we payed on a Thursday morning. I had heard the course was improving, but it has a long way to go to Garner more than $25. I had planned to post photos of the greens, but after #10-12 (we started on the back side) I realized I would have spent the round taking disappointing pictures so I abandoned that plan.

Pretty disappointing
Course was in pretty bad condition. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens didn't have any grass. Last time I played this course was 6 years ago and it was in great shape, I don't know what happened.
Terrible conditions
Played M.P. on 3-25-22 as we do 2 to 4 times a month. Called day before for ttime and it was set up with ABSOLUTELY NO MENTION OF COURSE having aeration a couple of days before. Checked in once again (same person, Mary) failed to mention aeration and terrible greens with weeds/junk on ALL front 9 greens except 1. Charged us full price for this awful golfing experience. At best worth about 20/25 bucks. Well they just assured our 3/4 players won't be wasting money there anytime in future. DO NOT PLAY HERE UNLESS YOU LOVE TERRIBLE COURSES.
Fun Layout and Friendly Staff
This is a great location very close to Pensacola Airport. We didn't get started until late in the afternoon, so only made it through 14 holes before running out of daylight.
I enjoyed the layout. Lots of varieties of holes running through rolling wooded areas.
The conditions of the course were ok, it doesn't look like the greens get much love in the winter months. They were rolling very slow and a little bumpy. I'd definitely consider playing again maybe in spring when the grass is growing a bit better.
Clubhouse and restaurant staff were fantastic. Super friendly and helpful. I'd recommend the reuben if you are hungry!
Love the course...
We're snowbirds and when we golfed here earlier this year, the course needed some improvements. We were pleasantly surprised that the course was in great shape. We also got to golf with a great couple of young golfers in their twenties.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Marcus Pointe Golf Club.
