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.

Downhill
Played it a couple weeks ago and the greens were rolling very good! Not much grass on fairways. Todayfairways same but the greens were very bad!looks like they are losing them. Very slow compared to last time, bare spots and a great deal of mold. As an aside we played behind a foursome & fivesoe . 5 hour round is unacceptable
First Time
Was expecting a little more for my $ than what I got. Had to pay an extra $20 for my wife to ride along on top of the $60 plus to play. Layout was good conditions weren’t. The fairways were so thin it was like hitting Lou of a hard sand trap. The greens were very thin with no grass in some areas, one hole was set right in a mud hole.
Decent course for the price
We had a nice connection and played for a great price. Range was on mats with older range limited balls. Golf shop and outdoor staff were VERY FRIENDLY and a highlight of our experience. The time of year didn’t help the conditions which were brown and ‘rough’ fairways and some of the greens had some pretty rough spots. The greens, which we were told were renovated late last year, were VERY firm and fast. They were generally unreceptive to approaches and we needed to land off the front or just on the front to hold them. In hindsight we would have putted more from off the greens. We were paired with a very talkative snow bird member who was anxious to share every detail of each hole which wasn’t optimal but not the courses fault and has likely influenced this review a bit. If you go in with the right expectations you can enjoy this value course and one of the best deals in the area.
Winter golf in FL
Started out cold in the morning, was a slight delay due to frost on the greens. But it warmed up quickly in the low 60's. Greens are perfect and very fast. Great course to play.
Great Course
Was in town for Xmas. Great course set up, friendly staff. The greens were not immaculate on some holes, but they were challenging and I would 100% play here again!
Won't beak the bank.
Course was in ok shape for winter. Other course were in much better shape, but $80-120 a round. For the money the course is challenging. Worth the price.
Winter Golf in Florida
A beautiful 65 degree day of golf. The greens were very fast with the dormant growing season during the winter months here in the FL Panhandle. The fairways are beautiful as well. All in all, the course is in excellent condition.
Shalimar Pointe
Slick and undulating greens… and tough to hold (which is fun/difficult)… Had tough cut pins the day I played… tee to green was ok/fine… sand in the bunkers and they were raked… great and a tough track… pleasant surprise… well worth it…

Nice not easy
Course is well maintained with an interesting layout but probably not for your average golfer. Lots of undulations in the fairways and on the greens makes it tough. Decent shots bring bad results unless you're "very" accurate. Lots of sand ,not only in bunkers but along fairways which obviously changes the roll you get on shots.
