Very affordable
Course and greens not in good shape or what we expected from another review.
Lowest bidder
For the market in the local area and prime real-estate, This is confusingly and easily one of the worst courses in the county. This was my 2nd chance for this place, came a year ago and the place was under lots of construction and the course was awful. But that's not their fault, so I came again. Got their an hour early to practice and warm up only to be met with an inoperable ball dispenser machine.
Whatever, go check in for our game. The gentlemen at the counter was not helpful in identifying our cart. The one reserved for us was not present on the lot and when we asked for a different one we were met with hostility. We rented clubs and were given lefty clubs for a righty golfer. Once that was worked out we made the hike back to our cars to grab our gear because carts are NOT allowed in the lot -- God knows why not.
Once we were loaded up, we waited for 40 minutes with nothing to do but loiter and putt. We brought drinks to make the wait easier but staff was petty about no outside drinks so we spent the time counting cars on the highway. When our tee time finally arrived, we were greeted by 2 other groups who had also been booked at the same time that we were. Tripple booked tee time on the same course meant another 20 minute wait.
Through the course, much of the improvements were tough to identify. The greens were rough and riddled with weeds. Paths were battered and confusing to follow at some points.
This course has so much potential. I'm not sure if it's greed or mismanagement that drives all the discrepancies. I'll never return and refer every friend of mine elsewhere. The grossly unsupervised military courses on Eglin are preferable to this place.
Interesting
Needs lots of work on the greens and some help in the fairways. Hot deal should be the regular price.
Good course
The only real negative I have is that the greens are in poor condition. To make any putt of over 4' is a pure crap-shoot as the ball bounces along over crabgrass and bare spots and ground moss.
If your handicap is that high, putting is the least of your worries. Probably should take up something like gardening instead of golf.
Slow play
The course is getting out of hand… greens are terrible, tee boxes , same. Doesn’t look like they are treating any weeds growing in the greens. Playing behind a 5 somes, and 2 foursomes that took forever..
That is because the golf course constantly double books the same tee time. Backs everything up and the course manager David could care less.
City Council needs to look at a new golf course manager. Should not be strictly about money and members ONLY should get to make tee times until 10AM.
Great course
A lot of people saying the course is in bad shape. It’s coming out of winter people. This course is played very heavily everyday. For the money the course is really fun. It’s wide open for all levels. Hit it right or left you can find the ball no problem. Are the greens perfect? No they are not. Is this a great city course absolutely. Want to play a course that’s prestine then go pay 150 a round to play that course. We had a foursome with two beginners had a great time and the staff was wonderful. We like it and will play it again. Don’t expect a 150.00 course for 50.00 it’s not going to happen. I doubt anyone who gives negative reviews for this course can break 100 on any given day at any course. Enjoy the game and have fun that’s what it’s about.
Good points - just remember to stay out of our way when we are playing since I am sure we are faster than your group.
Tee Boxes need work. Not a lot of grass and 0 level ground.
Go play somewhere else then and stay off of our course unless you are a member.
4 star? Must be paying for reviews
Lots of leaves, tee boxes and greens were the worst I’ve ever played. The last couple ratings were 4 stars and I shouldn’t have believed them. Easily the worst course I’ve ever played. Not sure how you putt on greens with no grass and get any idea of how well you can putt. We payed for 18 and left after 9. Might be a value at $15-20
Go play somewhere else then and stay off of our course. Flipping out of towners is what makes the course miserable for those of us that are members.
Oaks Course
A pretty standard municipal course feel, one problem I had was groups of 5 and 6 people were allowed really slowing up the pace. Greens were not in good shape at all. Other than that it’s not the worst course Ive ever played, layout is user friendly making play manageable for average golfers.
Golf course is know nfor allowing too many big groups and double stacking tee times which makes it miserable for us members. Told them often enough to just let members make tee times and then at like 10:00 AM each day, open it up for non-members. Out of towners can afford to come here and stay on the beach; they then can afford to golf in Destin.
Go play somewhere else then!
