Worth the cost

Played with my wife and we were not disappointed. Fairways In much better shape than a lot of other area courses. Greens were slow but in good shape. Lots of water so be prepared to bring an extra sleeve of balls. We will play again.

Nice Golf Course

I have been playing this golf course for about 5 years now, and so far this has been the nicest greens in 5 years I ever seen. It has improved about 10 times since I last played this course, which is about 6 months ago.. I highly recommend that you'all have to try playing this golf course when you are in the area. It is worth the money.

I also seen that there are many hard working staff still working on the bunkers and fairway greens. So, it will be nicer when they are done.

Winter conditions

Course was fine for winter conditions. Played it before it started to green up. Greens are slow. This location really needs to spruce up its pro shop and snack area. It could be really great Perhaps open in the evenings for locals

Fun, tough course.

1st time playing the links, I was not disappointed in the least. It's a great layout, greens are overseeded and maybe a little slow but were very very green. I've always liked that look with dormant Bermuda.

Wish I had played better, but was basically the 1st round since November as the weather has not permitted to play at home.

With plenty of water to navigate around this course, it makes those rusty swing problem cause your score to go up a bit!.

I would play this course again,but you have several options at Sandestin. I want to play them all.

Nice Course don't nickel and dime me.

We enjoyed the Raven especially carts with GPS-enabled course maps and distances to the hole. Hate courses that have bag guys wanting tips everywhere. Just a personal pet pieve.

Baytowne

The greens were very, very, very disappointing. They were so slow it was almost impossible to putt on or chip onto. Greens were like a plush carpet in my home. Don't want plush carpet on a golf course. I will not be playing Sandestin - Baytowne GC again. Please fix the greens.
