Need a little advice on the courses in Gulf Shores area. Heading there for vacation in a couple of weeks and want to get a round in. If you only had one round to play, where would it be? TIA.

I would play Peninsula, and for me it's not even close.

Craft Farms is a pretty sweet track. Don't know about price or what not, but a good track!

Gonna play Kraft Farms in July. I was told to stay away from Kiva Dunes because it is way too difficult for my skill level.

Go try Glen Lakes in Foley (I think that's the name)maybe 10 minutes from GS.
27 Holes and pretty inexpensive. The course has always been in good shape anytime I've played there.

I have literally played every course there besides Kiva and Glen lakes, and I just think peninsula separates itself significantly. The warf has redone the old gulf shores country club, and it is supposed to be really nice. I have not played it yet. The old country club was a decent course, and supposedly the warf has done major upgrades.

There was some Peninsula bashing going on recently. I played it a long time ago and thought it was nice. Most any course in the area is going to be nice IMO.

Good to know. I love Honors golf courses. They are all in immaculate shape with friendly staff.

I'm pretty sure I know who you are and you will really enjoy it. Number 15 is the signature hole. Are you going to play the craft farms courses too? We are playing at 9:30 Friday and Saturday.

Yeah. I love that course too. Some pretty scenery. Dang fans around the green get annoying in the summertime though. Rock creek is another fun honors course. Playing there next weekend.

Y'all need to play Perdido Bay, it's 3 minutes from your condo and it's nice too! The wind makes it a tough course. Are you playing Saturday with us at Pelican Point?
