Shalimar Pointe Golf Club
About
Located along the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay, Shalimar Pointe Golf Club enjoys a scenic, rolling landscape dotted with trees. This often-overlooked golf course has been considered one of the Emerald Coast's best-kept secrets but the word is beginning to get out. The course, due to its challenging but playable nature, has been used for U.S. Open qualifiers and it was host to the Emerald Coast Tour. The layout features immaculately manicured greens that are framed by strategic bunkering and water hazards on a number of holes. The golf course is challenging but fair with five sets of tees to accommodate players of all skill levels. The course is Shalimar Pointe's main attraction but it is complemented by extensive practice facilities including an expansive driving range, putting green and chipping green.

Destin trip
Staff friendly fairways brown grass tight greens very fast but also brown great layout enjoyed my round lot of layup shots ,water at strategic spots bunkers pure white sand very nice
Over priced for course condition
The course has a nice layout but the greens left much to desired with several bare spots on the greens.
The fairways very dormant with little to no grass in most areas
Not in the best shape.
The course is showing its age and a number of greens were damaged. It needs some TLC to be worth what the charge for green fees.
expected a nicer course for. 4star rating. could have been the time of year.. very brown
Hard turf
The clubhouse and staff were nice. I had read the the course had been upgraded and heard the same last week from a couple of visitors at a different course. The fairways and greens were as hard as a rock. The grass on the fairways was dormant and the greens looked like a brown ceramic surface. The greens played extremely fast. Hopefully things will improve when the weather gets nicer.
Typical conditions for north Florida in Feb. Dormant Bermuda grass worn dow to stub and greens suffering.greatly.
Challenging layout , cruel greens
Very challenging layout, especially if you haven’t played the course before. Winter in FL conditions, so still dorment grass and greens in poor condition. But, fun layout once you know it
fun but needs better conditioning of greens and fairways
Shalimar is a nice golf course with an interesting and challenging layout, a good variety of golf holes. We played in February and were not impressed with the conditions, even tho it is winter and the bermuda grass is dormant. While most greens were okay, a few were pretty thin and bare in spots along the edges - all reasonably puttable. Quite a few fairways had sandy areas and very firm, hard packed, thin grassy areas (making for a firm, tight lie with no give on a lot of shots).
Overall, it is an enjoyable course and good value in the $35-40 range (but we paid quite a bit more than that and expected better course conditions).
