Played there in May. Course was in pretty good shape. It's no Kelly Plantation but I don't think you'll regret saving your money. Wind was crazy during the round when I played. There's three 9-hole courses so we never got backed up or had anyone trying to play through us. Staff was nice and the cart boys sprinted out to our car when we arrived and when we were finished with our round.

If I remember correctly, don't hit driver on 1 unless you play a fade/cut.

Fun track. Greens weren't too bad, but require some precision shots to have birdie opportunities.

I plan on playing there again next time I'm in Destin on vacation.

I played in the summer. It was fun. He is right about 1. Play a 3wood. Good value/course combo.

One of my favorite courses ever. No, it isn't Kelly Plantation in terms of looks, but it is a challenging fun course. Many holes where you have to plan shots unlike so many where its just driver 8/9 iron on the Par 4's.

I like the convenience of the airport near by. Can fly in, play, fly out be home by dark.

That's my favorite hole on the course. 3W, 5W, putt.

I played there this past summer. Really fun layout and was in good shape. One of the three 9 hole courses was closed for maintenance so we didn't get to choose which two we wanted to play (if they even let you)

The par 5 that everyone is talking about was pretty funny. Hit 5 wood off the tee and then hit 3 wood at the green. It was interesting to say the least.

It is a perfect vacation golf course, IMO. It wasn't expensive (we did a really cheap Golf Now deal) and was pretty easy from the back tees. It was in good shape and the greens rolled really well and weren't fast. You can score pretty well there.

I was skeptical with the price and kind of where it was located, but thoroughly enjoyed my round. Would play there again for sure.
