Camp Creek Golf Club


About this course
Camp Creek Golf Club, a fixture of Panama City Beach, carries the distinction of being Tom Fazio's only public design in Florida, a subtle reminder of its accessibility amidst a sea of exclusive clubs. Built in the modern era, the course unfolds across gently rolling terrain, a stark contrast to the flat coastal plains more commonly associated with the region. Generous fairways give way to subtly contoured greens, a characteristic that often favors a strategic approach over brute force. While Camp Creek hasn't etched its name in major championship lore, it provides a stern test for golfers of all abilities. The layout is known for its demanding par-3s and well-placed bunkers, rewarding thoughtful play and punishing errant shots. Many describe the course as a "second-shot" course, emphasizing the need for precise iron play to navigate its undulating surfaces. Camp Creek maintains a strong regional presence as a championship level course, but it is also a valued host of amateur and local tournaments. The club fosters a relaxed atmosphere where members and guests are encouraged to enjoy the camaraderie of the game, with an emphasis on accessible luxury and a welcoming spirit. The clubhouse porch, with its panoramic views of the 18th green, is a popular gathering spot to recount the day's rounds - a place where good stories and good company abound.

Getting there
Most visitors to Camp Creek Golf Club arrive through Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP), a modern gateway positioned just twenty minutes east of the course along the Emerald Coast. The drive west on Highway 98 traces the shoreline through a landscape of sugar-white dunes and coastal scrub, the Gulf of Mexico shimmering intermittently through breaks in the vegetation. As you turn inland toward the club, the beachfront bustle gives way to a quieter, more secluded setting - a rare pocket of natural Florida terrain where the game unfolds amid native wetlands and preserved pinelands, far removed from the high-rise corridor that defines much of Panama City Beach.
