Shell Landing is a sensible, enjoyable Gulf Coast round with Davis Love III design credentials and enough scenery to feel like more than filler.

Great golf layout and in awesome condition. The wind made it very challenging from the Blue's. I can't imagine how it was from the back tees. A definite stop on a AL/MS golf trip.

I played Shell Landing during a long golf vacation across the South back when I lived in NJ. What a great course to play, very picturesque with many challenging holes. I hope to return there one day to enjoy the course again.

Course was in fantastic shape. Greens ran and tee boxes immaculate. Sadly it was the service that was quite lacking. For a 3:06pm tee time me and my two buddies paid ~$400 to rent clubs and play 18 with cart. The rentals were Cobras seemingly from the early 2000s, maybe the 90s
