Shalimar Pointe Golf Club
About
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.

Tees need work
Greens good but bumpy
Fairways better than many around
Nice layout. A little pricey for conditions
Tough Course
Enjoyed this challenging course. Greens were tough due to undulations. Lots of houses line the course. Staff was awesome!
Great Course
Great improvements to course. Greens are great. Staff in the pro shop and bar are awesome!
Great course!
This was my first time playing this course and I was very impressed. The Assistant Pro, I don’t recall his name, was so kind to me and my son who was out for his first visit to a golf course.
I played from the White(middle) tees and appreciated the challenge. Some short, even possibly reachable par 4s have well placed bunkers and other troubles that make playing a safe shot off the tee probably a better choice to eliminate big numbers. Some more descriptive tee signs or scorecards would probably have been more helpful, especially to a first timer at the course like myself. I did not know accurate yardages to certain landing spots or trouble areas like water or sand. This forced me to play safe with an iron off the tee to the 150 marker for example.
The course is not in optimal shape, some rough greens, etc but the layout and hole designs are excellent! I am definitely looking forward to visiting this course again!
First time playing the course. Had a great time and staff is outstanding. Fairways and greens were in solid shape. The rough was really rough though but you not trying to play there. All and all I would recommend this for anyone especially at the price.
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!
Great round with Sons & grandson
Course was in great condition. Fairways and greens very playable. Friendly and helpful staff. Great rate on GolfNow.
Will return
Very helpful and friendly staff. Course in better shape than others in the area costing almost twice as much. Enjoyed it much and will definitely return.
Very friendly staff, range balls were included with booked tee time. Course was great, greens were firm but rolled well
Well worth it!
Played 18 challenging and nicely maintained. The starter let me out early to beat the rush. Much appreciated.
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.
