Lost Key Golf Club
About
Lost Key Golf Club is conveniently situated equidistant from the historic downtown area of Pensacola and the pristine white sand beaches of Orange Beach and the Gulf Shores. The Arnold Palmer-designed layout was Florida's first golf course to be certified as an Audubon International Silver Signature Sanctuary. It underwent a major renovation in 2006 that included the addition of 2,200 native trees, 13,000 wetland plantings, and the resurfacing of the tees, greens, fairways, and rough. The golf course now presents a formidable test for even the most seasoned golfers. The greens are large and undulating and the flat fairways are lined with trees. There are also doglegs fairways on six holes and sand bunkers on several others. Lost Key Golf Club's signature hole is the par-3 13th hole, which requires a tee shot over water to a partial island green that rolls across dramatic elevation changes.

Wonderful Course
I’ve played Lost Key since it opened in the mid 90’s. It’s always challenging and a wonderful layout. It rewards good shots but can be punishing if you get off line. Beautiful scenery and a great staff. Look forward to my next trip.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u314159628837! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Lost Key Golf Club.

COULD BE GREAT
The tees and greens are very good, especially the greens. The fairways, rough and sand bunkers need lots of work. I have played this course quite a few times and not much has changed. With all the activity around Sandy Key I keep hoping that the course will be developed into all t could be. I’ll play LK from time to time but would pay premium greens fee if it was a premium course.

Course was just okay.
The greens were by far the best I’ve ever played. With that being said the fairways were very spotty.

Lost Key aka Lost Balls
Challenging course requiring serious control both in Distance and direction. If it was named Lost Balls it would be more appropriate. Best greens I have played on in Northwest Florida Hands down. Love the speed and condition of the greens. Other areas of the fairways are roped off in a lot of cases to ensure the areas grow back/do not get abused. Carry your sand bottle with you when you have to leave your cart!! For those driving from Pensacola and other areas East. You cannot enter through the back gate although you can exit that way!!

Nice Round as Usual
Nice round on cloudy but otherwise nice day. Some greens still a little lean from winter, but most are nice. Fairways and tees in good condition as well.

AWESOME
Enjoying a round with friends is always a good day. Got extra on hole 4 watching gator snatch and eat breakfast. Awesome to watch active wildlife. Steve the starter was really great with letting us know the course and expectations.

Lost Balls
Found course unfairly tight. Just hitting close to edge of fairway would result in balls rolling off into lateral hazards and often lost. Not recommended for any player with higher than 10 handicap. Target golf and all carry to too many greens.

Don't Miss!!
If you have heard of Lost Ket, then you are aware of the its unofficial name: Lost Ball!! Super tight fairways, no bail outs, tee game must be presice. I enjoy the challenge, yet on this trip the course was in sub standard condition compared to the other courses in the area. Thin greens, spotty fairways, and worn out tee boxes. The bunkers almost seemed to have too much sand if thats posible. I did play Lost Key in the fall and the course was in better shape, I still highly recommend if you are in the area.
