Nicklaus Course at Bay Point Resort

The Nicklaus Course at Bay Point Resort is the first and only course designed by Jack Nicklaus in Northwest Florida. The course sprawls across a gently rolling terrain covered with scrub oaks and tall Florida pines. Saltwater marshes and sandy white waste areas also accent the landscape. The golf course offers scenic views overlooking the Grand Lagoon and St. Andrews Bay, especially on the signature fifth hole. The challenging layout features an interesting variety of holes that will test both your course-management skills and your shot making. The seemingly difficult bunkers present interesting risk-reward opportunities. The 17th is one of the most memorable holes. Its 'fish bowl' design requires a semi-blind shot to a green that is recessed below the surrounding landscape. In addition to the Nicklaus Course, Bay Point Resort offers another championship golf course called the Meadows.
