Pines at Ft. Walton Beach Golf Club

Play here 2-3x month, course is in great condition and fun to play!

The greens were awful! They were over taken by weeds. Pretty much unputtable

Played the Pines.
Other than the greens on 14-17 they were in terrible shape. The amount of clumpy Poa Anna grass taking over the greens made them almost un-puttable..

Oaks is a little better but need some serious attention.

Played the course a few years and thought it was in better shape. Many of the greens need attention—only a few were ok. Fairways had very little grass compared to other courses in the area. I hope management has a plan to bring it back. I’ll try to play it again next year when I’m in the area.

Managed to play in under 3:50. Never really had to wait, did play one par 3 twice to make a gap, never had anyone pushing our 3some. Overall nice day!

Some greens in questionable shape. But for the money, there is no better deal in the area.

There are some really well designed holes on both courses. Really appreciate the differences each tee layout presents. There is a layout for all skill levels. Would like to see the pin placements change more often.

Give this course a chance, you won’t regret it!

Course and greens not in good shape or what we expected from another review.

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.

Needs lots of work on the greens and some help in the fairways. Hot deal should be the regular price.

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.

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..

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.
