My buddy lived at Craft Farms. Never got to play. But they looked amazing.

Looks like a legit place - was looking at Craft and Kiva Dunes as far as Alabama courses go...

Never played Kiva.

Played Lost Key/Lost ball. It was not in good condition last time I went though. Watch out for snakes at LK.

golfnow.com usually has the most recent reviews I can find in any region. They don't have all the courses, but there are a shite load of them in the florida lists.

The only course I've played, The Club at Hidden Creek has an accurate rating of 3/5 stars. That's all I've got to offer.

Cotton Creek and Kiva Dunes arebthe best in GS.

Used to love the Moors in Pensacola but it closed down.

Aren't there 2 courses @ Craft Farms? I'm assuming this one is the nicer of the two.

We may venture over to the Pcola or Destin area if there are any courses worth the extra mileage...

Kiva and Craft Farms are legit. I agree with what somebody said about Pinnacle, it's nice and all but not really worth the money. Lost Key is unique but you better bring two dozen balls.

When did that happen? They use to host a Senior PGA event there.

What is being done with the property?

Couple years ago. They are still trying to find a buyer to reopen it.
