Going at the end of May and need a few suggestions between some courses:
Bluewater Bay
Emerald Bay
Regatta Bay
Santa Rosa

Only have time to play 1, and I have never played any of them. Any suggestions on which one I should try out?

Kelly Plantation.

If it has to be out of those 4, Emerald Bay.

Bluewater bay is across the toll bridge and is an old school neighborhood golf course. There is a reason it’s so cheap in golf now. I play it in June when it’s $20 and My BIL who only plays once a year is with me. We drink beer and enjoy getting away.

The rest are resort courses.

Regatta redid their greens last year. I haven’t played since, but it’s a great course.

Emerald Bay is always a great place.

Santa Rosa I have never played.

Kelley plantation is always primo

There is also the SanDestin courses.
Raven
Baytowne
Links
In that order. I wouldn’t play Links over any on your list.


BEWARE!!! These places punch greens often. Call before you book, and Golfnow is your friend.

I have always enjoyed Bluewater Bay but I lived in a townhouse there when I got out of high school for 6 months and played a lot of golf so it is sort of nostalgia for me. It is a tighter but shorter course than the others which lends itself to my long irons off the tee and still being able to score well.

Emerald Bay and Regatta have been long standing nice courses. It's been a long time since I played either but they have both been great a long time. Can'g go wrong with a free round at either.

I've never played Kelly although people swear by it around the area. I think it was a Fred Couples group course.
