Played this course and Kiva Dunes. Gulf Shores was a better layout and a better value IMO. Course was in great shape although they are getting ready to plug greens in a couple of days. I thought the layout was excellent playing a Gulf course with mature trees all along the layout. Will definitely play again when I return.

Rack rate of $122 - $145 is a little steep for this course. I was able to snag a $95 early morning rate on GolfNow. I think that was a reasonable rate for this course. I can’t believe it is the #1 rated Alabama course. It is a good resort style layout. Wide fairways, generous greens, excellent bunkers but kind of ho hum layout. Would play again with a discounted rate.

Only negative was the greens had just been aeriated and were very bumpy. They did charge $10 less than the quoted price so it was worth the price. I would have been disappointed had I had to pay the full price. Still probably the best course in Branson.
