Needs work
The staff was very nice and helpful. The first nine was over grown and no signs to help players on the course. The second nine, was was being repaired and the tee boxes were pushed up and not mowed. The greens were in good condition. Fast pace of play,.

Tee boxes were rough, tight course, but doable even for hackers. Staff was very friendly and accommodating
Thank you for your 4 star rating. In the past few months we have been working hard, first on our greens and then on the fairways. The tee boxes are next. Please come back soon: it will be the same "excellent" friendly staff; "excellent" pace of play; and hopefully better tee box conditions, and maybe a fifth star from you!
Getting in bad shape.
Played here in the past and it was a nice course. But the last 2 times I have played here has been really bad. Course is in really bad shape. We paid $45.00 to play a pasture field basically. Won’t be going back anytime soon.
Poorly maintained
the course is in really bad shape. You literally don’t know what you’ll be hitting out of. Sand where it shouldn’t be... grass that’s entirely to high to get a decent hit, barely any grass where you tee off on several holes where you wouldn’t use a driver... etc. you couldn’t pay me to go back here.
The staff is really nice and helpful though. The food was pretty good, and the club house menu is legit.
We regret that your experience here was not better. Many recent golfers have noticed the improved condition of our greens and fairways, but have also commented, as you did, that several tee boxes are in rough shape. We are working on that and take your comments, and the others, to heart.
We appreciate hearing your feedback and will do something about it immediately. Please contact our Director of Golf (Fritz Johnson) at golf@bwbresort.com or 850-897-3241 so that we can find out how we can get you to try us again after we have made the recommended improvements.

We played 36 holes today and the courses were in great shape. We played the Lake and Bay courses today. We enjoy playing the Marsh course too. The staff was friendly and helpful. The pace of play was very fast and we will play here again.
Glad you enjoyed your day at Bluewater Bay-all 36 holes of it! You got the full benefit of our August Special. Come visit again, soon- Marsh course reopens September 9, and thanks for telling your friends about us on Golf Now.
Buy a lawn mower
Been playing this corse for years It has been steadily going downhill every year Most the tea boxes were horrible the greens were OK
Price is right
Like the title says the price is right for this course. Tee boxes were the biggest let down. Hitting balls out of the sand or rough should be how you start the hole. The Lake course isn’t marked so you’ are unsure of the hole you’re playing. Fairways were in good shape and greens were tough but fair. Evil pin placements today but ball roll was fair. Staff was amazing and would recommend this course for anyone looking for a quick round with a unique layout.
Very Impressed
This course was much better than expected. My only complaints are me and my buddy played too fast!!! Also, a few of the greens were dead, but the fairways were in very good shape for hot Florida. Staff was very friendly and offered cold towels to put around our necks. Beautiful views on this course and very good for the price. Holes were very unique.
Great value
I would play here again in a second. One of the best courses I’ve played in Florida for the money. Staff was very hospitable. Some of the tee boxes are a little rough but not a big deal, greens and fairways were good.
Excellent Value for the Money
Staff was extremely friendly. Course overall was in good condition with the exception of a few tee boxes. For the money vs. some other local courses, it was an excellent value.
Great value for the money
The staff were very friendly and got us going very quickly and there is a bar that serves a nice breakfast sandwich and has coolers for drinks while golfing. The course had nice fairways and greens that are maintained well, but the rough is very grown and makes finding balls difficult. We played at our own pace with little interruption. Overall I found the price well worth it and enjoyed my round.
Staff was great. Course was good. Fairways were very good. Greens were a little hairy but were in good shape. Bunkers were in excellent shape. The rough could of used a mower. For the price, I would definitely go back.
Hello, JeremyS1975. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Deteriorating Conditions
Owners looking for an excuse to demolish course and build housing. Maintenance is almost non-existent and conditions deteriorating fast. Lots of bald spots and weeds growing in bunkers. What once was a favorite, reasonably priced course is no longer worth playing. Self fulfilling prophesy where you cut mx costs due to reduced usage. Poor conditions drive reduced usage. Cost of a round makes this a better option than going to a driving range, but not by much. Course will be gone within a year. Such a pity.
Great Value
$35 for 18 holes + cart + $10 food/drink credit.
The course was in okay shape. But for the price, you can’t complain. The staff was the standout for this course. Carts waiting for you at your car, super friendly, ice cold towels delivered both on the front and the back.
Can’t tell if it’s Fareway or rough
The course itself was in OK condition it needs to have more water to drink on the course and not one spot per nine The red tees need to be mowed was very difficult to find where to tee off most of the tea boxes were sand and not green I think until the course is better manicured and cleaned up that you all need to reduce the price $70 for two people I thought it was too much for how the course was The food and the staff are very friendly that’s about it.
Hello, Robert. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Your feedback about the price of our course is important to us. We always want to make sure we are offering golfers a competitive price for their round. It is our goal to give visitors the best chance to get out and play more. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Not bad
Saw a lot of bad reviews about this course. Ive played better and I definitely have played worse. The greens were inconsistent. Played the Bay course nine first, greens were very slow and bumpy. Played the Lake nine second, greens were much faster and less bumpy. Overall the greens were good though. Grass was high on some tee boxes and some didn't have much grass. The staff was great, from the guy that met us in the parking lot to get our clubs to the friendly folks in the pro shop to the guy that came around with ice cold towels. I would play this course again for sure. Give these folks your business.
A great price for a round of golf. The course could use some improvements but very playable. Staff was friendly and helpful. There are nicer courses in the area but not for the price.
Awful awful awful. Do yourself a favor and avoid this cow pasture.
We truly regret that you had the golfer's version of "Alexander's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day."
You rated us poor in every category, and that tells us a lot. We would really appreciate hearing the details. Please share the specifics of what made your golf outing at Bluewater Bay so bad by sending an email to Fritz Johnson, our Director of Golf (email: fjtheiii@gmail.com) or calling and speaking with him directly. Knowing the specifics and then addressing them is the only way we can do better. Also, we hope you will give us another try and to encourage you to do so, Fritz would like to invite you and up to three friends to enjoy (hopefully!) a free round of golf. Please let Fritz know by email or phone when you would like to visit again.
Hello. Thanks for the review. We see you rated the course 1-star and are interested in learning what we can do to improve for your next visit. We take single star feedback very serious at our course. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Bluewater Bay Resort - Marsh Course.
We have been working hard on improving the course condition. Our plan is first on our greens and then on the fairways. The tee boxes are next. Thank you for commenting on the greens being in good condition and the staff being friendly and helpful. Please come back and play again as we are continuing to improve the course conditions.
