Excellent Routing, Greens Need Work

The routing and variety of holes is very good. Its always an interesting course to play. FW and Tees were in good shape. Bunkers and greens needed work. Greens and fringes were stressed, and had crab grass and some bare spots.

Course in great shape, interesting layout

Wish they had a set of tees between tips and blue. i played blue and was a little short for me. Course was in excellent condition, and staff friendly. Greens in in the best shape out of all the courses we played in Destin. layout was nice, but not memorable. Just a good, solid, meat & potatoes florida course.

Nice Play, staff could be friendlier, greens in bad shape

We played on a cool, wet, very windy day. So got very little roll. Course would play easier when dry. Fairways in good shape, but most greens had bare spots. it affected many putts. Our playing partner said there were plans to redo the greens. The layout has many nice holes.

Nice, classic, old school course - in great shape

The course was built 1924. 6100 yds from back tees, but it is only par 70. Greens are the new hybrid bermuda, and were fast and smooth. FW and bunkers in great shape. A nice variety of holes, and there are several longer par 4's to challenge you. Fairways are tight, but far, several of the shorter holes don;t require driver. The staff was very friendly and helpful

fun, old course

RGA is an old, short course. lots of holes have charm and character, especially the first 13. greens had decent pace, but there are problem areas and some weeds. Fairways and rough were decent, just a little long. Played in just under 3 hrs.

if you are an accomplished golfer, expect to score. Its an nice walk and fun to play once and awhile

Nice layout

Played the day after 2" of rain. Course was very wet, but payable. Greens were just aerated, but still had nice pace to them. you could tell that the greens were nice, smooth and fast before aeration. I liked the layout, all the holes were framed nicely, and they had nice flow to them. Rough was long and tough. Staff was extremely helpful in getting be out when 2 people in my group couldn't play.

In drier conditions this would be an excellent course to play.

Good, old school course

Greens were very smooth, and in great shape. running about a 9. Fairways also in great shape. rough approx 2" high, which was playable out of. One minor suggestion is that they have a 1st cut of rough. the fairways are narrow (which is good), but often a ball will just trickle into the rough, and pulling a bad lie off a good drive isn;t the greatest.

Good value and course in good shape

It’s a very tricky layout. Not long but you need to be accurate. Some blind holes that require local knowledge. Fairways and greens were in good shape

In good condition, good test

Greens and fairways in excellent shape. From back tees a good challenge. Lots of hazards and rough is not penal, but does make sporiach shots more difficult. Several holes require a lay up so course plays longer than score card

Nice course - plays longer than you think

Greens in very good condition. For only 6000 yds from the back tees all four par 5 s are are over 520 yds. Four of the six par 3 s are over 190. Fairways in decent shape for this time of year

Course in excellent shape -- great value

The course was in great shape and you couldn't beat the price - $20. FW's were very lush and closely mowed. Greens were smooth and running relatively fast for the heat, i would judge a 9. The course is flat, but there are a lot of doglegs to break up the monotony. Green complexes were fairly easy, and flat but there were alot of subtle breaks. I played at 6900 yds. the net set of tees is around 6100 which is a big difference

Nice Layout & Routing, Course in poor condition

The layout is very nice, lots of elevation changes, and each hole is different. many of the holes can be visually intimidating, although there is more room out there than you think. Condition of the course was fair at best. Greens were (relatively) slow, bumpy, and had some areas under stress. FW's were very hard, bumpy and some bare areas. there was no real 2nd cut of rough, just untended/mown areas, sometime too much in play.

Good value - nothing special

Got a very good rate from Golf Now. The fairways were as expected for this time of year. Greens were a mixed bag -- had occasional non-bermuda tuft that would affect the roll of the putt. there is a fair amount of water, but the FW's are reasonably generous.

New Back Tees add a lot of yardage and difficulty

Overall course was in very good shape. Green were in good condition, rolled smooth and somewhat fast. Only issue were many bunkers still had water in them, so drainage was an issue. it had been a few years since i last played, and the new tees definitely add a lot of length on several hole. the are a few holes (like #6) and are very wonky, but the rest of the coure layout is good.

Course is OK. A good value, but fairways were a bit ragged, and grass was high in tee boxes.

The price I got was very good, but I was not told they had just aerated the greens. if would have reconsidered if I had known. Pace of play was very slow, there were 2 fivesomes on the course a head of me, and would not let smaller groups play through. Layout/Routing was short, but interesting. Course was in average conditions, fairways were generally OK, but there were some bare spots and ragged lies. Tee boxes were in similar shape.

Good Value, course in good condition overall

Fairways and greens were in very good shape. Tee boxes were a bit small and uneven. Course is realtively short, with very small greens. Overall the layout is straight forward, but there were a few querky holes, were i hit the fairway but tree or overhanging banches totally blocked off my approach shot/
