About
Editor's Note: The Meadows Course is currently closed, due to the damage from Hurricane Michael. See Bay Point Resort - Nicklaus Course listing for the remaining 18 holes that are still open.
Bay Point offers two scenic championship courses that are situated right along the Emerald Coast overlooking the pristine waters of St. Andrews Bay. Both golf courses offer a unique experience but the same beautiful scenery. The Meadows Course is classic country club golf with a playability that endures day in and day out. The layout features tight fairways, numerous bunkers, and lakes that present different challenges every time you play. The course is also heavily wooded with trees lining the fairways. One feature of the design that never changes though, is that it always demands accuracy and careful strategy. At 6,913 yards, the golf course allows long hitters to really shine. Bay Point's two 18-hole courses are complemented by practice facilities that include an immaculately manicured putting green and driving range.

They are proud of the course
Staff in pro shop is always nice. Starter was fine yesterday. We play weekly with a group of 30-40 and we are continually pushed to speed up play as they over book the course. Ranger comes by on 17th hole yesterday and gives us a lecture as we had 2 wheels off cart path by the green. I am a snowbird and really do not care if I ever go back to the course.
Slow pace of play. Never saw a player 's assistant.
John,
Than you for the review and we apologize for the pace of play issues. With the weather being so nice, we have been extremely busy. We have been working hard to keep at good pace and are sorry it wasn't for you that day. We hope you come back out and give us another shot. Thank you!
Very enjoyable round
I loved the greens at the meadows. For 50 yr old Bermuda, they were fabulous. I'll be back and soon.
Excellent Staff and Great Course!!
Nice course!! No waiting at all for the first time, played in a threesome and completed in 3.5 hrs with no waiting which was very nice unlike a lot of other courses. Narrower fairways and pretty challenging for first time out. Weather was perfect. Staff was great!! Will return again very soon!
Wish we could walk
We have been coming here for 3 years now. Staff is great. This year the course is in fantastic condition.
This course reminds us of our course at home. Driving range is good.
We have met lots of fellow Canadians down here, really enjoy it
The way this course could be perfect is if they allowed us to walk. Distance from green to tee is short enough that it would be easy to walk it.
My other issue is the ladies restrooms at 10 and 14. The locks on the doors have not worked for over a year. It would be nice if they would fix them.
Hope to return for many years

Good for all levels but sooooo slow
Nice course, unusually for Florida without much water, but quite tight off the tees. Course was in good condition with greens rolling nicely, but very busy and we ended up waiting on every shot and finished the 18th in fading light having teed off at 1.15 pm. Good value at $36 including cart and range balls. Good practice facilities and customer service with refreshment cart appearing frequently.
Loved the course. Pretty narrow in spots so it makes you think where you want to place your shot. Speed of greens excellent.
Nice Course
Played for the first time today. Very nice. Why go to 'where the pros play' when this is a much nicer facility. Fair price, monthly program, nice people. Why go anywhere else? In order to get full 5 stars.... allow walking,
Thanks for the great review! Glad you enjoyed the course. We are working how to try to incorporate walking into our programs. Again, thank you for playing!
Greens in excellent condition
Enjoyed the first round that I came back the next day. Very good traditional southern course. Lots of pines and targets to keep things interesting.
great challenge
Great venue. Par fours are very challenging. Tight fairways require imagination and skill off the tee. Course has nice greens and is in great shape
Enjoyable to Play
Great course even though it had rained hard the night before and it was cart path only. Fairways were soggy, but I never had to move my ball out of standing water. The greens were excellent.
The meadows course was easy play and fun to play.
Great start to Winter Golf
Enjoyed round of Golf with friends from Newmarket, ON and Fort Erie, ON.
Staff very efficient and friendly. Great Service.
Beautiful day weather wise and a great round.
Excellent course for average golfers.
Enjoyable round of golf on an excellent course in good condition.
No advisory
Greens were covered in sand. No advisory. Would have played elsewhere had I known greens were in this condition.
Bay Point - Meadows
I find the Meadows a fairly easy course to play. The fairways are a little tight in places and has a couple of holes next to the highway that may test your nerves.
The course is in okay shape and the greens looked good, but are too slow. Have played this course before, therefore I know what to expect. I always play the Meadows first and tomorrow I'll play the Nicklaus. It's a newer and much nicer course.
