I find camp creek to be one of the toughest courses in the Florida panhandle. This course is almost always in great shape. Tons of water comes into play and the green complexes are absolutely massive with multiple tiers and are extremely undulating.

One of the best hidden gems within 45 minutes of 30a / Destin area. Used to be the longest course in Florida tipping out at 7,800 yards (at sea level). Course is pretty wide open and features massive greens. Typically in good shape and a really fun stress free round…

Every. Single. Hole. Has. Water. Super fun and challenging course when you are playing well. Exact opposite feeling when you are worn down from the sun/vacation and want a casual round. Practice facilities are small and were always closed.
