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.

Gone Downhill
From tee to green the course has gone down hill. The greens were patchy and all had bare spots.

Okay
Okay conditions. I booked as a single and was basically stuck in the middle of a ladies club event which killed the pace of play. Shouldn't even offer tee times if you have to play around or behind an event.

Staff has done a great job this course has improved drastically since the spring. I’m sure it will continue to look better keep on doing what your doing.
Much improvement
They are doing a lot of good work on this golf course. It’s pretty challenging, and the greens are improving dramatically.
The worst I play
I how I estar the course is under construction , you have to jump from one hole to another and they told me I cud not finish my game because the cart’s have too be bye 4 o’clock and they have ligué on Friday so they should make people aware of that.

Decent Course
Reading several reviews, I was reluctant to play here at first. Overall, I'm pleased I did. Yes, Shalimar Pointe has some rough spots, but it seems they are working on them. The greens are spotty and the fairways aren't perfect, but that didn't detract from my overall positive experience. The layout is challenging with many doglegs and a few blind shots. Overlook the few negatives and enjoy your round. I used an online teetime service and got a great deal.

Great Value for The Money Spent
The course itself is a little challenging. The condition of the course was a little rough but the maintenance crews were very active making improvement. The staff were all very friendly. My main complaint is there weren't many yardage indicators to be found. They had removed all of the 150 yard markers and very few sprinkler heads were marked so distance reference for someone without a range finder was difficult. Overall this was definitely a great value and got me the golf fix I was craving while in Florida.

Great course for late season golf (November) greens and tee boxes had just been through maintenance but still very solid. Course decision was challenging and you could cruise all over the course in your cart. Overall great value for the rates and a good Florida style course.
Better than expected
The course was in better shape than I expected. Only 2 greens on the front needed work and the back was in great shape. You could see that they had been working on the course. They had reseeded the tee boxes and the fairways were in better shape than when I played it last year. Everyone was very friendly and I played the course in a little over two hours because it was kind of cold. I will definitely be back.
Shalimar golf course
I knew the greens were being repaired but was pleasantly surprised of their condition!
Nice day
Had a wonderful round of golf. The staff was friendly and courteous. I have played there for a number of years and have always enjoyed. The staff even forewarned us about maintenance work being done.
It's ashame that GolfNow did not have this posted as they had been notified. I would definitely recommend this course.
