Must Play
This course is a must play if you're looking for a course in the Orange Beach area. Staff is great and the course is fantastic. Plus, they make a great apple cider old fashioned. :)
Great layout and staff
First of all, there is plenty of staff and they are super friendly and helpful. This was my first impression and it was great. The course was well-maintained and the greens were the best I’ve played in the Gulf Shores area. A challenge if you are not hitting it well. If you are striking it well, there are plenty of birdies out there.
Enjoyable round
Very enjoyable round with good playability while still moderately challenging. Most challenging were the greens which were very fast and in great condition
Great Time in Gulf Shores
We purchased a Craft Farms 6 pack in November to cover our golf plans for a brief stay in Gulf Shores. We actually played both courses over 3 days, Cypress Bend once and Cotton Creek twice. Both courses were in very good condition for the time of year. Staff at all levels provided us with a very warm and friendly reception. I would have no hesitation in recommending this course and would certainly play it again. Great value for the money.
Course was awesome, they were renovating the clubhouses, other that it was great.
Fun course, great people
This is a very good course run by great , friendly and accommodating people. Their clubhouse is closed for repairs, so the off.course amenities are lacking. Course was in very good shape and the layout is challenging but fair. Would play again.
Good course, nice people.
We played on a Tuesday in 3.5 hrs. Excellent. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The course was in good shape, maybe a little rough around the edges, but not bad. Would play there again.
Nice course
Nice course in good shape. Only problem was there were a lot of wet spots from overwatering greens or broken sprinklers. Seems like it was an issue somewhere in every hole. Not due to rain however. The amenities were non existent due to remodeling I guess.
Craft Farm - Cotton Creek
Loved this course. Greens were in great condition.
Sporty course - Fairways were in good condition.
Traps were raked and ready for play.
Pace of play was great. Played 18 holes in 3 hours and 5 minutes. Teeing off at 2:20.
Will definitely play again. While in Gulf Shore area.
OUTDTANDING COURSE
THE COURSE WAS IN GREAT SHAPE AND FUN TO PLAY.
WE HAD A GOOD TIME AND CANT WAIT TO SEE THE CLUBHOUSE ONCE RENNOVATIONS ARE COMPLETE. THE ONLY MAJOR COMPLAINT IS THAT THEY ALLOW MEMBER FOURSOMES TO PLAY WITH 4 CARTS IN THE GROUP. WE HAD TWO GROUPS CONTINOUSLY RIDE OUR BUTTS UNTIL WE HAD TO LET THEM PLAY THROUGH. THATS WAS PRETTY CHICKEN ---- OF THE MEMBERS!!
Grass
Where’s the grass? I live off Cypress Bend and it seems like the maintenance crew people are perpetually cutting the fairways. Why? And if they must be kept busy, at least raise the height of the mowers 1 level.
We have had multiple friends from out of town visit. They all loved the beauty of the course and the extremely friendly staff. But they all said the same thing I’m saying - WHERE’s THE GRASS?
