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.

Awesome Spot
. Snuck away to this awesome little spot near Destin/Ft Walton Beach Fl.
Had to rent clubs but they had very reasonable prices ($40) for brand new top of the line 2022 Callaway set.
Some holes are alittle tight with this course running through a housing development. Most fairways were in good shape.

Everyone in the club house was super accommodating.
Round included free range balls.

Great round!
This course will give you a few challenging holes, and greens that roll pretty good. Great value for the money, especially considering range balls are included with the round and the golf cart usb charger ports actually work.

Worth Playing
Played 3 days in a row beginning 9-11-23. Accommodating, friendly, and helpful employees. Greens and fairways were very good. Rough had a few bare spots, but not too bad. Would definitely play again.

Nice course for the value
An unassuming but nicely maintained course nestled in an older neighborhood. Plenty of hazards with water, sand, undulated greens, and sharp dog legs with long Par 3s. I thought some of the holes would be on the coast with views of the bay but it is mainly a neighborhood course. I enjoyed it. Will be back!
Hello, Stanzy. Thank you for visiting us at Shalimar Pointe Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Best course for the money on the emerald coast
After recent renovations, the course is one of the best on the emerald coast. They continue to strive to make it better. The playing experience is great. Plays longer than it actually is. Staff is super friendly. Marshall keeps play moving!

Better than expeccted
My wife and I take short weekend trips to play as many different courses for the last 2 years. Shalimar was one of the course this past Labor Day weekend we played. It was raining the night before and that morning and luckily it stopped by 11:30am which was our tee time. It drizzled a little in the back nine but overall it was playable. The fairways and greens drainage were excellent considering how much rain we had. The course is well maintained, the staffs were friendly and inviting. Just an overall great experience. We will definitely return to this course.

Great customer service
The staff are very professional and obligatory. Due to a family emergency, we weren’t able to play, but they did change my tee time when o asked due to rain.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the family emergency. We are glad to hear that our staff was professional and accommodating in changing your tee time.
Challenging layout
Extremely hot last weekend. But the heat wave is moving out and getting back to normal. Course is in excellent shape since the renovations.

Great customer service
I had booked a tee time through Golf Now for 9:06. Well, it was pouring rain, so I called and asked to have my tee time moved because of rain, and they were very nice and professional. We didn’t get to play, because of a family emergency, but I would definitely recommend them for their professionalism.

Good Ole Army Retirees Fellowship
Good course; great time playing with old Army buddies of various skill levels. Only real complaint was the greens were not recently trimmed making them a bit furry, which slowed down putts considerably. The one standout was the course staff - young adults who were very nice and accommodating. They even had a grilled burger plate special going on that day. I would play it again and do recommend it.
