Must play in Gulf Shores

Staff is very friendly and offered good advise to first timers on this course. The course had recently aerated their greens which we knew in advance of booking. However, the reduced greens fees made it worth playing. A few good rains will help settle them down. Overall a great golf experience.

Nice track

Course is overcoming heavy rains last week. Most bunkers were raked, but some still had water. No rakes or drinking water on course, but beverage cart was excellent. Clubhouse laying new tile in grill and pro shop. Staff was super friendly, including cart staff and rangers. Good course to play.
