CONCIERGE SECRETS

AMW Faves List

Favorite Par 3 – #5 – a little bit of this and a whole lot of that define this stunning hole. Marshland and sand dominate the landscape from tee to green, creating a richly textured, picturesque setting. The beauty is undeniable but make no mistake the challenge here is very real.
Favorite Par 4 –  #16 – crafty and sneaky, this luscious par 4 bends ever so slightly left off the tee after crossing the marsh. The subtle dogleg and gently rising terrain demand thoughtful positioning, making it a wonderfully engaging par 4 from start to finish.
Favorite Par 5 – #6 – this hole feels less like golf and more like a trail hike through a national park. Forget the scorecard and enjoy the walk it’s nothing short of spectacular.
Favorite Hole Design – #15 – a classic North Florida par 4 that cuts through native flora, offering views of the bay and sand traps the size of a beach.
Easiest Hole – #8 – The yardage is short, but the way is long. Skirt the multitude of bunkers and you’ll be rewarded with a short approach and a very real chance at birdie.
Hardest Hole – #17 – A big par 5 that plays more like a game of Operationthan anything else. Miss the bunkers, find the open areas, and make your way to the green. Par is a very good score here.
Favorite Extra Sighting – Florida marshland and wildlife
Favorite Apres Golf – walk along the beach
Where to Stay – Camp Creek Inn, Watersound Inn
Where to Eat –  Shark’s Tooth Clubhouse, 1936, Beach Break Grill
