Challenging course with good views

It rained pretty hard the night before, but the course dried out by 11:30, and played really well. A lot of water, and if you buy WW balls like I do (woods and water) make sure you bring plenty of extras.

Love it

The day we played there was 20 mph winds and gusts to 30+. The playing conditions chewed us up but we still had a great time.

Loved this course.

Got lost a few times! Signage could be better. Long long course for women. Found it a bit pricey for the area but overall we loved it.

We had never been there before and had no idea where the first hole was. Had to ask cart guys. Otherwise it was a beautiful course.

Poor Green Conditions

Played this course last year during an annual group outing. Course was great, but challenging so we tried it again this week.

The overall course condition was VERY disappointing....especially at the price of $105. I've seen municipal courses in better condition for less money. The greens were in terrible condition...brown spots and grass plugs all over. In fact, there wasn't one green in good condition on the entire course. The tee boxes and fairways were not much better. Bottom line, not what we expected for $105 on a Jack Nicklaus branded course.

Suffice to say, we won't be back next year.

Just ok shape right now

Some of the greens need help. Course was in ok shape. Price should reflect current conditions (it doesn't). Drive 40 minutes and play Windswept Dunes. It is in great shape right now.

Need Beverage Cart

It was a warm to hot afternoon. We teed off about 1:45 and never saw a beverage cart. Course does not return to clubhouse until after the round. I played poorly in last 3-5 holes as I was short on fluids. Need to have the beverage cart out and available. The course loses a star due to no beverage on course.

It’s March

It’s March and the Florida panhandle is coming out of winter, what do you expect??? Personally it could not have been better!!!! Staff was superb, course was as good as it could be, will be superb in probably 6-8 weeks if the weather cooperates. My first time to play and had a great time. We will be back as soon as we get back this summer. I have played golf for 62 years and I know a thing or two about course playability and course maintenance and Bay Point has got it …….. Enough said we’ll be back !

Great greens!

The greens are some of the best in Fla.

Lots of rain but the course drained well.

Will play again for sure!
