The Henderson, a Salamander Resort

The golf course war pristine and challenging. I finished 30 minutes ahead of pace. Greens changed speed after the rain. I had to endure the heavy rain hole 4-8. Front 9 score suffered 7 over my handicap. Back nine 3 under my handicap. The drink cart left early that day they let us know so we got a cooler to go at the turn. I also dried my shirt under the hand dryer lol. I’ll be back.

This was the second year that we have played the course and it’s still challenging as always. Myself and two Sons love it and will be back again next year to enjoy another round of golf.

Definitely gotta play this place once if you’re a once a year vacationer in the Destin area. The layout of the course is pretty sweet, and the staff is top notch as well as the practice facilities. Gotta have all shots in the bag and know when to take your medicine to shoot well, as well as have a good bunker game because there are some brutal ones. Overall a great experience and would recommend to a friend.

I’ve played all the courses in Destin. This by far is the best golf experience as far as check in, quality golf holes, bag drop, starter beverage cart etc!! ( except for the freaking grump at the main gate)

Course is in the best condition I have ever seen it in.

Get out and play it you won’t be disappointed.

Just about everything that Regatta Bay is awesome with the exception of them charging $55 for my wife to ride in a car with me. We did not require an extra cart but they charged her $55 anyway. Not Not expectable.

Played right after a rain and finished with my wife in right at 3 hours. Course drains very well

I really like this track and play it whenever I visit. It is very expensive, but the course is in great shape, the greens rolled really well, service was top notch and the pace of play (3 1/2 hours) was worth the extra $$$ for me.

This course mixes bomb driver open fairways with tight course management shot strategy holes. Some holes play best with using hybrid or 3 wood for positioning. Some holes have forced carries, and some blind trouble. It is always wonderful to play here - amazing tee box, fairway, rough, and greens. A must play!

Parents dropped off a 13 yr old kid from out of town who was basically a beginner. They paired him with us. Shouldn’t have been allowed to drive his own cart. Sweet kid but he was clueless. Didn’t have a drink on a really hot day so we bought him water. We basically babysat. Pro shop didn’t even offer us a beer or lunch for our trouble. Wanted us to come back and play and we couldn’t. Not a safe situation for him and the club should have prevented it. He quit after nine bc he probably ran out of balls. Course was great though.

Cause was in great condition. Staff was wonderful. Met several club members who were very friendly and kind. Pace of play was not anyone’s fault. Just the way it is sometimes. When we return to the area we will be back to play.

The course was in excellent condition. The staff was more very helpful with any questions we had. I was a little unhappy about having five holes being cart path only but with the amount of rain they’ve had in that area it’s understandable. Overall I would play it tomorrow if given the opportunity.

This course has everything you want in a golf course.challenging but fair. Course conditions fairways/sandtraps/greens were all in great shape. Love the mix of water carry on par 3s and hazards that force you to layup off the tee. The only thing I did t like was the painting of the greens for ascetics. Greens but still rolled good. Recommend you put on your list of must plays if you are in the area.
