Rating 72.1

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.

Crap Front Office Staff and Customer Service

Raise your hand if you were ever chastised by a Mommy Dearest wannabe for showing up an hour before tee time and inquiring if we could have a cart to pick up our clubs from our car. Then ridicule the request we made to a group of member right in front of us. If it hadn’t been a hot deal, and I wouldn’t have been out the money for the round. I’d have walked away and not played.

Shameful

This is a really nice layout but really a shame the way the course is run down lots of bare spots. Greens really slow appears to not have been cut today.

Most upsetting was slow play group in front of us had entire back nine backed up today. No ranger in site.

Course really dry realize not much rain lately but they could run the sprinkler at least once in a while. Took friends and was really embarrassed with conditions. Might try again in fall.

Disappointed

Beautiful day for golf

Marcus Pointe is quickly becoming a favorite with its quick play and challenging holes. We have been really pleased with course conditions this entire year. Beer was cold and the beverage cart was around several times! Very friendly too!

Aerated fairways

We started on the back 9 because the fairways were being aerated. This wasn't an overall hindrance but the balls would often settle into the tine holes. The greens were in overall good shape; however crab grass did affect the line on a few of our putts. The tee boxes were not very good - difficult to find a level surface to stand because of so many divots; perhaps moving the tee markers more often would solve this issue. The fairways on #3 & #5 are bare and the landing areas are hard pan dirt - these had both started to recover over the winter but they have since reversed course. The condition of the course is worth the budget friendly rate.

Dry and thin.

I love the layout of this course but this time of year the whole course is dry and thin. Many of the tee boxes are so beat up they are nearly sandboxes. The fairways yield a lot of roll because it's dormant. No overseeding here. It ma be in better condition by April.
