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.

Relaxing course
As with many courses, this one is still beat up from after the hurricane. $40/18 holes with cart is well worth it though, and staff is great with excellent drink prices too. Will play again.
BOOM
Great course, glad to see her coming back. Has always been a hidden favorite of everyone in the area, CHEERS to all making the comeback!
Only play if it's cheap
Course was in very rough shape compared to other courses in the area. This is a $20 golf course
Course has a great layout and awesome staff
It is a fun course. Definitely a little damage from storms but nothing unbearable. The greens had some bad spots but majority of green was playable. We had a rain delay for almost 2 hours but didn’t mind it a bit with everything the club house had to offer. Cold beer and college football with great staff to talk to. Went back on the course and all the water drained well and had a nice rest of the round.
Very Nice Indeed
Haven't played this course in a while. Glad to see it back on GolfNow at a reasonable price and time slot. The course was in overall excellent shape. There were just a spot of two on a green or two that needed work, but that was it. The greens were probably the best we have played on while in the panhandle this trip. The layout is quite challenging still playing from roughly 6,000 yards. I hope to be back soon.
So disappointing
I’ve been coming down to visit my Parents for 38 years and playing Shalimar almost every time. This is the worst conditions I’ve ever seen the course. Burnt out everywhere. Piles of fallen trees everywhere. Shame to see a once excellent course waste away

Thank you for playing Shalimar Pointe Golf & Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Not the same course as in the past
This is a great track and a very challenging course however is not been kept up over the years. Have always enjoyed the challenge here however very disappointing since I was here last time it's gone farther downhill

Sprinkler golf
Second time playing the course. Due to Sally hurricane it had caused issues to fairway- dry and bald spots. We teed off after pm but you would think that they would know when the last group is playing before they turn on the sprinkler system. For the front nine, play was frustrating since you had to dodge them on the greens and fairways. Offered raincheck but clubhouse was totally CLOSED so no raincheck. A bit FRUSTRATING!
Wonderful course
Course was challenging but fun. Staff were awesome
Great place to play on Destin
My daughter and I wanted to play a different course while on vacation. Shalimar was perfect. Nice wide open course, greens were tricky, and staff was friendly. What a wonderful day!
Only play if you can’t break 100
A goat ranch. Its worth 15 to 20 dollars to play. If your just learning and want to chase a ball around it’s wonderful. For anyone else who may notice course quality and condition select a different course.

You get what you pay for
We chose this course because it was the first round of the trip. It was $40 and it wasn’t worth anymore than that. As we pulled up and I saw the range I just thought of tin cup and waited for cheech to come walking out. The fairways were non existent and the greens looked like they hadn’t been cut in a week.
