Marcus Pointe Golf Club

This course closed down in summer of 2012 to remodel. We played right before it closed and though the greens were in rough shape, it was a pleasant experience. We were excited to return this year and saw they had reopened boasting of new greens, tee boxes, better fairways, etc on their website.

The club house had been moved to a temporary location since apparently it still is being remodeled. Poor signage finding it. Then the staff just wasn't that friendly. One guy was super rude.

The course itself seems to suffer from lack of irrigation. The fairways were smooth and fast. The greens were disappointing. It appears they think that using green-colored sand in smashed down in large quantities is a good alternative to grass. Fast greens but mainly because the surface is hardened.

And to top it off, we had to wait to play due to a couple slow groupings. Wish the starter helped facilitate play better.

Don't go in expecting a pristine golfing experience.

For being spring and a fresh remodel, I had higher expectations.

Next year we will try a different course.

The course is great once the get the tee boxes and green back. A lot of the tee boxes have sand covering them, because they grass has died and they are trying to get them back. The greens are almost back, there are a some that have patch repairs and sand covering them making it hard to putt. The fairways, rough, and sand traps are in great shape.

this course is great! and the whole staff is friendly!, Everyone who works there seems to enjoy working there, everyone smiles, greets you, and has a great attitude. They are doing some remodeling, to increase the restaurant area which has fabulous food! you cant go wrong when visiting this course!

The course is well maintained. The staff is very friendly. I was visiting in the area when I played and would play this course again given the opportunity.

I played the course in April. Understandably, a few of the greens are in transition. The staff is very friendly and are working hard to make this the best course for the money in the Pensacola area-and I have played all of them.

Definetely can be a challenge, but is "Player Friendly". Has a Links feel , which is the case on many holes, yet a few holes run side-by-side, with plenty of Room & Mature Trees seperating those that do. Very Scenic, with rolling fairways, and "Greens" to match, which are bunkered Nicely, with "near perfect" sand that is not too Course nor Powdery. The well guarded Greens, make approach shots , maybe the Best Challenge here. A Nice Course Layout, with nice length from the "Tips", a Friendly Staff, and well maintained, makes for a Great Day, and a Good Value.

Enjoyed the course and the staff was extremely friendly. A few of the greens could use some work but overall greens in
good condition. I would recommend this course as a good deal and enjoyable experience.

Spacing of groups allowed for plenty of time to play each hole.

very enjoyable place to play. plenty of hills, no boring holes. the greens have lots of break and follow the natural contour of the surrounding ground. similar to scenic hills, only newer.

I really enjoy this course, it is challenging, while I'm enjoying the scenery around me. By this I mean the beautiful green of the lawns and trees, flowers and bushes.

Marcus Point has fantastic farways with very few bare spots. Incredible since it's winter. The winter rye top seeding has really worked. The greens are in good shape, though there were a few areas that were bare in some of the higher trafficed areas.

As a side note, the restaurant, called "Iron" has great food and a pretty good wine selection.

All in all a very good facility

Challenging course and experience. Requires well placed shots off the tee box for straight forward approach shots to the green due to fairway shape and tree lines. Greens rolled true but fast and exacting. Burned the edges adding a number of strokes through the round. Course was well maintained from the tee box to the greens. Overall great time!

Very nice course, with many challenging greens. The staff was very nice and helpful. The greens were in great shape. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed this course very much. It's one of the best courses in Pensacola.

Very friendly staff, excellent layout and in excellent condition. We took a little longer to complete a round only due to weather conditions. We encountered rain showers that required us to seek shelter a couple of times during the round,however it did not have an adverse effect on the playability on the course. There was no standing water and the greens were excellent throughout the round.

The greens are a little hard due to being brand new but they roll nice and the fairways and tee boxes are in great shape.

New sand in traps was in excellent condition and well groomed..
