Pros:
Pirate's Cove is a small technical nine holer on the Milton campus of Pensacola State College that plays along and through the wood line at the back of the baseball fields and track. It provides a round with a mix of left and right breaking drives, some tight lines, two holes to air it out a little, and a possible ace run or three. The short tees are level concrete tile with signs and there are benches at every hole except the first. It's easy to find and very easy to navigate. There are long tees for every hole that create additional challenges and make the round a much more difficult play. Plenty of parking on the weekend right next to the first tee.
Cons:
The long tees are designated by blue painted markers, set flush with the ground, and can be very difficult to find if you don't know where they are.
The parking can get a little tight during school hours, and I've occasionally run into cars parked in the way on the first hole, but the course starts at the far end of the parking lot furthest away from class buildings and therefore is generally the last part of the lot to fill up.
The ninth hole ends at the far side of the track from the parking lot, which can be a little bit of a walk back to the car, but there is a practice basket in the field at the parking end which can be played as an informal hole 10.
Other Thoughts:
This is a good looking nine hole course that has enough substance to provide some challenge to most players without being so much as to overwhelm beginners. It is paired with the 18 hole Gator Links Course to make for a fun 27 hole round when played together. The Gator Links is across the street from hole number 8 and down a short service road. Play the links and then come back to finish out holes 8 and 9 of the Cove. Parking anywhere on campus other than the end of the lot by the track requires a student parking pass.
