Gulf Shores Golf Club

I can’t recommend this course to my friends because we were not informed ahead of time that they had high school rounds that day. Maybe over 100 high school golfers on the course. And, we got stuck behind a 5-some. That is not allowed where I play. My friends would not have been happy.

The staff were great, everyone from the nice lady in the pro shop to the starter and cart lady. The course had just hosted a tournament so the tee boxes were a bit beat up but course was in good shape. The biggest issue was the driving range, it was a mat. Being our first round of the year and spending the entire winter up north hitting off mats, it was sad to warm up by hitting on more mats. Overall, we had a good experience and it was very close to being great. Will play again next spring break.

With the older carts, no GPS it seems to expensive.

Only issue is the back tee boxes. On several holes, there are trees that need to be trimmed. A couple of the par 3 especially. It’s hard to play a dogleg par 3. No body plays the back tees so they have neglected to trim the trees.

Next time make plenty of space for public golfers if you’re going to allow public tee times. We waited 45 minutes between holes 7 and 8.
Course was very dry and not in good shape, from a “green” perspective, but I was also told last months 7” of snow was responsible for that.
Pretty pricey course to allow such bad tee time management.

The problem is that they killed all the fairways so very difficult to hit off of dead grass

New ownership bought this place and raised prices through the roof we used to pay 65 and now they are charging $129 on a WEEKDAY this is a nice course dont get me wrong but for that price it is not worth it go play kiva or penensula

I have played this course dozens of times, it is probably in the worst condition I have seen it. Yes it got snow on it but so did every other golf course but they aren’t near as bad, the fairways have no grass and even after no rain you are hitting mud. Go play any other course the 100$+is a rip off.

Played 18 holes with my wife, son and son in law. Very fair course for our different abilities. I have recommended this course to others and will play this course again next time I’m here from escaping the north in the winter.

For winter golf was ok. Comparable and maybe a little better, especially considering driving range included, than other courses of similar price. Fairways, ok Greens ok, but they should add range finder prisims to flag poles, and maybe get new cups, as a number of flagpoles wouldn’t stand straight

The practice facilities were excellent. The course layout was good! Most bunkers were nice. Fairways at time were mainly wet. Some spots worse than others. Had a cheeseburger with fries that were delicious
