The player-friendly Blackstone Golf Course boasts a reputation of being an excellent course for families. The gently undulating landscape is approachable to beginners while still providing a fair amount of challenge. The rolling terrain requires accuracy but most holes allow for short irons if you're willing to risk hitting your ball into the treetops. There is a stream that meanders through the golf course, coming into play on a number of holes. It also crosses through Blackstone's driving range. Strategically placed bunkers are also scattered throughout. The greens are in excellent condition, providing great putting surfaces. Blackstone Golf Course has garnered a local following because of its playability, which is helped by three sets of tees, and extremely reasonable rates. It's an excellent location for a casual round.

Consistently good and hilly

This course is always in good shape and layout is challenging. Be prepared for some deep hills with hazards. Clubhouse is a little weak but ok

Blackstone

Course is a very hilly with several ravens, very little grass on the fairways, gullies cause by rain runoff.
I like the layout of the course but the overall condition of the course is poor. Does not look like the pictures do to lno rain.

Good greens.

Fairways are rough in spots but greens were good. For the money you can’t beat it.

The Course is a great lay out but needs attention.

Loved the lay out of the course. The greens were in decent / OK condition but the fairways and tee boxes were in pretty bad condition.

So much potential

I love the layout of the course. Unlike most courses in the panhandle this one actually has alot of elevation Big greens in good shape. Staff was very friendly. The only drawback is the fairways are very dry and patchy in areas. With a little TLC this could be a 5 star course.

Black stone experience.

I drove an hour and twenty minutes to play this course. Great value with regards to the price. Greens were in really good shape, but the tee boxes and fairways could use some love. The course is very narrow with not much room for a misguided drive. Not a bad course, but I’m not sure I would drive that far to play it again.

Greens were Trampolines

Overall I get that it’s florida and the storms and rain wash out the fairways so it’s understandable in some spots but the greens were not receptive at all and yellow fairways. Not really playable at a high level. Overall if you’re gonna spend 35 dollars i would recommend Black Water.
