St. James Bay Golf Club
About
Located in Carrabelle just minutes from the pristine white beaches of St. George Island and Cape San Blas, St. James Bay Resort boasts the only Audubon Signature Sanctuary golf course in the area. It's not an understatement to say that water is the course's most formidable feature. There are 15 lakes throughout the landscape that present a hazard on every hole. Towering pines and colorful flowers accent the scenic parkland as well. In addition to the natural hazards that have been seamlessly incorporated, bunkers were carefully added to strategic locations to make the course more challenging, but they still allow the landscape to truly shine. In addition to the golf course, St. James Bay offers a full practice facility with a driving range, a chipping green with a bunker, and two putting greens.

A Neat Track
The course is challenging with the carries and water. Greens run true and in decent condition considering the time of year. Overall a gem.
A very hard course but absolutely beautiful! Greens were well maintained as well as the fairways. I stayed in awe at it's beauty.
Great layout
Once again I enjoyed the course. The layout is great. The putting and pace of play were slow but the challenge of the course was ideal. The greens need spraying for the poa annual but all in all it was a great day at st. James bay!
Love the layout
The course is always fun. Great Layout. Pace of play was very slow. Greens need some attention...poa annua needs to be sprayed on the greens! Range, Putting and.chipping areas were nice.
Challenging Layout
The layout is challenging, yet enjoyable. .A few tough holes. Better make sure you a decent driver, there is a lot of carry off the tee.
Great course and quite challenging
We loved the course even if we lost lots of balls. Unfortunate that the grass froze. It will all come back! Resort lile place. We will come back!!!!!
Really challenging course
Really nice, challenging, lost lots of balls. The GPS in the cart was extremely useful. Unfortunate that the grass had frozen recently. It will return soon to normal. We will come back.

We enjoyed our round! My dad said that he loves the greens. They putt so true. Bring extra balls!
