Windswept Dunes Golf Course
About
Windswept Dunes Golf Club tumbles across a dramatic landscape covered with white sand dunes accented by lush green fairways. The golf course appeals to players of all skill levels thanks to player-friendly features that are balanced by strategically placed hazards. Although each hole shares the characteristic of being lined with dunes, they each maintain a unique character. The rolling fairways are often wide and generous off the tee and the sand dunes, which stretch from tee too green, are only punishing of the most errant of shots. The approach shots though are as demanding as the tee shots are forgiving. There are numerous bunkers fiercely guarding the large, smooth greens. While the occasional water hazard comes into play, the bunkers are the most challenging element of Windswept Dunes Golf Club.

One of the best non-private options on the Emerald Coast
Course was in great shape and there was almost no one on it! Expect a lot of waste areas, some blind landing areas and greens with serious undulation. Greens were aerated fairly recently but they were still quick (without being punishing).
Close to Destin - best value around
Played this course mid-week while on vacation. Great value for the money. The greens were in great shape. The fairways were punched very recently, but it had no impact on play. Very wide and forgiving fairways. Lots of undulation in the greens, but they rolled true. Struggled a bit with distances, but there was enough room to work if you miss a green. Staff is friendly, clubhouse is just a trailer with minimal selection. Would definitely ply again.
Great course, great time, great value
This is an awesome course! The staff was super friendly and had no problem accommodating a single player like me. Course condition was excellent in all respects. The clubhouse is just a business office with a snack bar, nothing special. Keep it in the fairways or close to them, as you leave the rough it becomes the Florida jungle grass. A very enjoyable round, and I plan to play again when next time in the area.
Nice track off the beaten path
Great course...first time playing it in the 4 years I've been traveling to the Destin/Panama City area. Course was in excellent condition....very green and plush and the greens were in great shape! Played The Hombre and Regatta Bay also on this trip and Windswept Dunes was my favorite by far (and I really enjoy Regatta Bay)!!! Windswept was in just as good if not better shape than Regatta Bay and the price was over 1/2 less than Regatta Bay. I highly recommend the 30 minute drive from either Destin or PCB to play this course. You will not be disappointed!!!
Very Nice
I really enjoyed the play at this course. It was one of the most beautiful courses that i have ever played. Very long, but not crowded at all. I will return to this course as soon as i get back to FL.
Windswept Dunes Swept us Away!!!
What an amazing course! We have played several courses in the Panhandle area and this was by far one of the nicest this time of year.
It was the only one that had "green" fairways in February.
Can't wait to go back.
Green fairways
Too pricey for the area. It was nice seeing green in the winter. Carts did not have GPS.
INTERESTING COURSE
IF YOU ARE IN DESTIN YOU SHOULD PLAY THIS COURSE. WE HAVE PLAYED IT A FEW TIMES AND REALLY ENJOY IT
course was in good shape
We had a great time and the starter from Michigan was very good
Well maintained, challenging, and great value!
Well maintained, challenging, and great value! Definitely worth the drive.
Course was challenging but fair
I totally enjoyed the experience at wind swept dunes. The greens are so big but so challenging. It was a great experience and the staff was super friendly.
Course was enjoyable to play.
I have played this course on 4 other occasions when we are in the area. It will always be one of the courses I play when we are here. This time the greens were a little slow and some of the fairways were being worked on. The putting green is large and in good shape but the driving range is not in the best shape.
Secluded but big course, great greens.
Long course out in the country. Very secluded, some houses, but mostly wilderness. Challenging greens due to slopes, but they rolled well. Some course maintenance in progress on a couple holes, but not really an issue. Really enjoyed the round. Great value.
Very nice course.
Very good course for the money. Off the beaten path. Very nice!
Good course for the money
Every thing is big. Lots of tee blocks to appeal to all, wide fairways and huge greens. Have played it several times and will continue. Good golf experience.
Long course with big greens
Loved how wide open this course was. Lots of room off the tee and large undulating greens on every hole. Each hole was private, you felt as if you were the only one one playing. The course is long so plan on using the big stick often. Water not really an issue. Large fairway and green side bunkers are challenging. Greens were putting fast and true.
The head pro was friendly and helpful. Pace of play was not an issue as the course was not crowded on a Wednesday morning. The only negatives: no GPS or Clubhouse (they operate out of a trailer). I will play again on my next vacation in the Destin area.
Great value for the course u get to play
A little drive out of destin, clubhouse nothing fancy but course is really nice. Very good value and worth playing!
well maintained
The course is great shape considering the amount of rain we have had in this area over the summer. I always enjoy playing Wind Swept. I love when GolfNow lets you play it for super cheap.
Good layout, needs attention.
Wide open, not crowded. Great potential with more maintenance. Lot of rain caused poor drainage. Enjoyed the course because of price with Golf Now!
Long, challenging but enjoyable
Long course, especially for women. Was extremely wet due to lots of rain but in super condition. Peaceful & beautiful for a course out in the middle of no where
Would differ with you about course conditions and friendliness of Staff-they couldn't have been nicer, and course conditions have been excellent every time I've played!
