Located along the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay, Shalimar Pointe Golf Club enjoys a scenic, rolling landscape dotted with trees. This often-overlooked golf course has been considered one of the Emerald Coast's best-kept secrets but the word is beginning to get out. The course, due to its challenging but playable nature, has been used for U.S. Open qualifiers and it was host to the Emerald Coast Tour. The layout features immaculately manicured greens that are framed by strategic bunkering and water hazards on a number of holes. The golf course is challenging but fair with five sets of tees to accommodate players of all skill levels. The course is Shalimar Pointe's main attraction but it is complemented by extensive practice facilities including an expansive driving range, putting green and chipping green.

A Hidden Gem

The greens are excellent for being a year old. The new tiff eagle grass is so nice to putt on. The fairways are plush and green. The renovations have just made this course so much better. It was worth the wait!

Cheap course but you get what you pay for

Course has so much potential but just isn’t at its best at the moment. Tons of sand on the course (bunkers and just random patches of sand). No cart path between tee and green. Greens were full of sand. Dead patches all on the greens. The staff was very nice but that was the only plus.

Hidden Gem in Shalimar

After the recent heavy rains we've had in the past few weeks, the course has really flourished. Everything is green as can be. The greens are less than a year old, so they are still a bit firm. With time, they will soften up. But for now, there is some roll out on your approach shots so adjust accordingly. All in all, its in excellent shape.

Excellent Value

I’m sure there are better courses around but for the money I really enjoyed my round. Staff was very friendly and pace of play was excellent. Greens had areas of repair but overall no complaints.

Great course to play

With the warmer weather, the course has greened up from the winter. Since the greens are still new, they are still somewhat firm. They are putting true though. The fairways are green and plush.

Nice Course; friendly staff

Enjoyed the course layout. Quite lengthy from the blues. Fairways and greens in decent shape. Would play it again when I’m in the area. Good value on Golf Now compared to other courses in the area.
