Shalimar Pointe Golf Club

First time on this course, definitely a great value for the are. Only one green was in need of significant improvement. Pro-shop attendant and Marshall were very friendly, gave good advice.

Greens were like putting on shag carpet. They looked and played like they had not been mowed in 2 to 3 days. Super slow and frustrating. There is no way that I would pay full price to play this course. I paid $50 and that was to much for this course.

I was looking forward to playing this course. Upon arrival I intended to hit range balls considering I recently bought wedges the day before. As a 4 some on the first tee we let two gentlemen play through. This was a huge mistake. They couldn’t make it 100 yards off the tee. The fairways are horrible. The "rough" is just knee high weeds that the maintenance crew is too lazy to cut. Although the greens are in really good shape. Will not be back at this course I’d rather pay $200 in Destin.

Very happy with the complexity of the course. Errant shots met with remarkable difficulty for recovery, but that's how golf should be!

Friendly staff! Pictures on website are over exaggerated! When we arrived they had no golf range balls lefts. We waited 40 mins to collect them and when they arrived they had limited amounts and the balls were OLD. We then waited for them to provide golf carts because they ran out. Tee boxes were not in great shape.

Overpriced for the condition of the course.

Yes, it's very hot and humid this time of year. Drink plenty of water and bring several gloves to change out, and a "Towelie" to help wipe off the sweat. Greens are very nice and the fairways are perfect. All the rain has settled in the light sanding on the greens from last week.

Like most Pete Dye courses it has bunkers all over the course. Older course but in decent shape and fun to play.

There was a light sanding layer on the greens, not aerated though, just sand and fertilizer. Hole 10 had a hydraulic leak damage but didn't affect any putting on the green. Fairways are plush and green. It's been 5 days since I played, so the greens are probably worked in with all the heavy rains we've had and back to normal.

Course is challenging and in pretty good shape. I think for the money it's hard to beat in the area. The people that run the course set it above the others in the area. Complimentary range balls. Tees in the carts. And they gave us fresh oranges to enjoy while we played. Felt like our business was really appreciated.

It looks nice at first but the greens have grass that's as tall as the fairway and some spots that are proper height. The greens were absolutely tiny and not well taken care of. The entire course was as hard as a rock. If you got any bit of a divot like you do with any iron, you lost major distance because you had to cut through the rock. The layout is tight but manageable. The worst part was pace of play. They had everybody start on the back 9. When I was on the back 9, I spent more time waiting for the groups in front of us to play than I did playing or even driving from shot to shot. It was super congested. It took my wife and I nearly 3 hours to play 9 holes on a cart. Then the front 9 was empty. After we left the tee box of #1 we didn't see a single golfer. Why didn't they spread people out to manage the crowd?
