Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed Sandestin's Raven Course, which opened for play in March 2000 on a parcel that Jones himself called 'a true modern traditional', 6,900 yards par-71 carved through marshes, native wetlands, and towering pine forests of the Florida Panhandle's Emerald Coast. Florida Golf News named it 'Best New Course in Florida' for 2000. RTJ Jr. balanced modern length with classic strategic demands: water comes into play frequently, strategic sand-trap placement rewards shot-shaping over power, and the fairways are framed by the mature pines that give the course its distinct visual character. The course formerly hosted the PGA Champions Tour's Boeing Championship (2006 and 2007) and Korn Ferry Tour events, giving it tournament-tested credentials beyond its resort-card billing. Peak green fee runs $125-185 for resort guests. Fits a Destin trip as the tournament-tested RTJ Jr. card among Sandestin's four-course resort portfolio.
