Overview: Kelly Plantation is an 18-hole semi-private course in Destin, designed by Fred Couples and Gene Bates. The layout plays to par 72 and 7,099 yards from the longest tees, with Choctawhatchee Bay views, bayous, water, and a large nature-preserve setting shaping the coastal experience.
History: The course opened in 1998 on land associated with a former turpentine plantation. Its current identity combines the Couples and Bates design with later club stewardship and the protected natural areas around the community.
Did You Know? The course property includes about 250 acres of nature preserve. That means several views and corridors remain tied to undeveloped coastal habitat rather than being framed only by homes or course maintenance land.
