Anyone ever played here?! Going on vacation shortly and just wondering how that course is.

I played there in March. The course was fine. For $35, the twilight rate is a steal.

When are you going? The FSGA website has some tournaments that are easy to sign up for, and you can play the best courses in NW FL for around $60.

If you're going to Tallahassee, Southwood is a fun track as well. Panama City has Camp Creek, which is the best public course in NW FL, though a little pricy. GolfNow has good deals, though for those courses.

Have fun, let me know if you need OT travel tips for the area!

Thanks for the Feedback.

We are actually going to Cape San Blas so thats definitely the closest course to us. We are planning on playing there like 3 times then going to play The Jack Nicklaus Course Bay Point Resort. For St. James we have a handful of bogo deals. More of a family trip and just sneaking away a few times to get a few rounds in. Thanks again. What did you like about the course>

I liked the condition of the fairways, and the bunkers were not overly difficult. I'm used to playing the munis in Tallahassee, where the fairways have hardpan sand, and the bunkers have overhangs.

Number 3 (I think) had a challenge as far a really narrow fairway with a tiny green, and lots of bunkers near the green. The course definitely rewards fairway play.

It's not my favorite course in the Panhandle, but considering the remote nature of the area, St James is not bad. Also, you will likely have much of the course to yourself, which is a big plus in my book.

There is a local beach just west of Carrabelle that is fun. Look for a dirt road about 2 miles west of town, if you want to hit the beach right after your round.
