Emerald Bay Golf Club

I have played here before and always enjoy the layout! Got around in good time and the course was in good shape. Great layout and staff!! Will play again!! Once again, thank you Golf Now for the great rate!!

Definitely a solid good course! Not a great course.

Very competent staff! Efficiency was excellent!

Course was in great shape especially for
This time of the year. The only thing i would change is the hefty price for green fees. During the winter months they should lower the fees a little to get more golfers to play here. It was not very busy when I played and I think the price had a lot to do with it, because a course as nice as this should be busy.

Nice course
No jeans allowed
Glad I got there early
Marshals down the street saved my round

I read some reviews about how the course isn’t in perfect shape which I find crazy. It’s in pretty darn good shape. Is it a 5 star? No… but it’s pretty darn close. Staff was 5 star. Guy in the club house escorted us to our first hole. A couple of greens had some dead spots but the pins were placed no where near them. The course was in great shape. If you are in Destin you should absolutely play this course. Very beautiful course. It’s challenging if the pins are in the right spots and overall I give it a 4.5 star. Will definitely be back.

Course was well worth it for the money here in Destin. Starter sent a single with us to make a 4some, then we got passed within first 6 holes by 2- 2'somes, a 3-some and a single. Pro-shop sent the starter out and said we're slow... I said of course we are... You could have done a better job. Greens were in good shape and rolled nice. Enjoyed it all together other than the 5.5 hr round

Amazing course, greens in great condition, staff was great and super friendly. Will definitely be coming back to play.

Nice. Challenging course with a good layout. Still some minor winter damage. But not bad. Will plY again next year.

I would say absolutely have to play the course.
Early conditions are ok as grass starting to grow.
Greens starting to roll nice but have some bare spots.
The cart guys are awesome
Most of the staff inside pretty cool but as most course in Florida a few grumpy dudes that shouldn’t be working with people.
Got teamed up with some really great folks and that made the round more enjoyable.

I’ve been living in PCB for over five years and playing golf in the area. During this time frame I’ve never played Bluewater Bay because of the poor ratings. I was looking for a place to play and checked out the current rating and saw that the rating had improved with some pretty good reviews so I decided to give it a try today and I really enjoyed the course. It’s not in excellent condition but it’s pretty good. I loved the layout and it’s challenging with small greens and some great views. I hope it continues to improve because I’m definitely going back.

This was the first round of our trip and we enjoyed it. The greens had been recently top dressed so they were a bit sandy. The range was nice and staff friendly. Course layout was good with a couple of great views of the bay on the back nine.

Emerald Bay has always been one of our favorite snowbird courses. The layout is fun and some of the holes are really beautiful. Practice facility is really good and staff is friendly. We’ve noticed over the last 2 years, however, that the prices have gone up and the conditions of the greens has gone down - worse than can be explained as “winter conditions”. We’ll play Emerald Bay again, but only on a hot deal.

Challenging course from the tips. Plenty of water to avoid. Will play it again from a less challenging box. Great staff!

I have played Emerald Bay several times and this round was a fun day.
Nice layout. Consistent quality..
