Friendly staff

The staff was especially friendly providing me with range balls and as soon as I pulled up they had a cart for me to put my golf bag in. The course was in good shape and I enjoyed my round.

So so course

When we arrived there was no bag drop. Finally found someone to pick us up in parking lot. Check in was ok, but we’re not given any range balls or directions to range or first tee. Snack bar had very limited drinks. Got to range, found about 10 balls to hit before tee time. Course was in fair to poor condition. The problem is there aren’t many options in Panama City. Maybe we were too early for better conditions, but for the cost it was not a good deal.

Challenging course

Good challenging course! Has lots of water so course management is a must! Any negative comment is it seems they’re losing some of their greens as there a lot of bare spots in a number of them.

Twilight

Twilight rate was a little high knowing that there was a good possibility that you don’t finish 18 holes.

The greens were in bad shape, the fairway was dry, not sure I’d play it again.

Far from a Nicklaus Course

I would have thought a course using the Nicklaus name would have been in better condition. I know it's winter, but you can tell that in season this course isn't all that much better. Most notably the greens, although fast, there were many that had bare spots and large areas of patched repair. Also, the perimeter of the majority of the holes were poorly maintained or not maintained at all. The layout was nice and definitely a challenge. I'm just not sure that if Jack were to visit this course with his name attached to it, it would put a smile on his face. I'll probably give the course one more chance when it's in-season just to see if the conditions improve.

Nice course, poor greens

Great course, love the layout and challenges from #2 tee box (7 handicapper) wish greens were in better shape, I played this course 5-6 times in February and like the course but the greens are in rough shape and you don’t get rewarded with good wedge shots or good putts because greens don’t have much grass and very sandy and bumpy.

Overall a great course and hope the greens come back when the nicer weather returns

That was very fun!

The wind was strong and it was a little cold at the beginning of 8:30.

However, it was a very fun course.

The difficulty of the course was high, and the green was also undulating and difficult.

I want to challenge again!

Golf

A fantastic course that is well maintained and staffed with plenty of helpful people. It was very busy and most groups were playing as five somes. I thought this would be a negative to a great day but it was very easy and kept the pace of play just right. Never have seen groups of five going off. The had so many tee times it was the best thing. Worked out great. Most impressive. The practice range is also very nice.
