There are a lot of nice courses. Maybe it's just me, but I'd look for who is offering the best deals. I've enjoyed playing at Shalimar Pointe, Raggatta Bay, and I really liked the Raven. The last two are in San Destin. But I played at discounted rates.
Camp creek, which I think is a Water Color course off of 30a, looks very pretty, well kept and well designed, though I've never played it. I only walked part of it. 850-231-7600 I think the course supervisor is Larry Livingston.
Not as nice as those I've mentioned, but there's an executive par 3 course off of hwy 98, the Golf Garden. If you have a teenager or non-serious golfer to tag a long or just want to hit a less serious course, it's a nice alternative.
Darn, I've golfed so many courses here in the past. The first three I mentioned are nice though. The Raven and Ragatta Bay are pretty darn nice courses. I'm no conaisseur, but if you have the money, I doubt either of those will disappoint. They are not terribly far from Seagrove.
However, from Seagrove, Camp Creek is very, very close. Call and see, but I think at least during the spring they allowed non-members. Not sure. I'd check. Also, they will be able to tell you, I forget the course, but there is one right north of there, just north of hwy 98 that had some great specials in the spring. I drove by it and it appeared to be a nice course. It was to be supported by its surrounding neighborhood but we all know how the economy stopped many housing establishments.
Good luck and let me know if you need any more help. I have a friend who knows more about the courses around here. There is no shortage, however.

Camp Creek Golf
If you mean Camp Creek Golf, yes you can, it went public in March.
It's by far the best golf experience around for miles.

Windswept is 5 mi. east of Freeport. It has 6 different tees and very nice. Hombre in Panama City Beach is a good golf course with lots of water. But I like Regatta Bay the best of all.
Windswept Dunes is about 30 minutes from seagrove, the course is in great shape and the rates are better than those on the beach.... 850-835-1847 Florida Golf Courses - WINDSWEPT DUNES - Freeport, FL
Camp Crekk is by far the best in NW Fl. All depends how much you want to spend. Working there, I am a bit partial to the course. If you want a challenege, this is it. Otherwise, Windswept, Santa Rosa Golf, Origins{par 3}, or Holiday.
Camp Creek # is 850-231-7601 for all info. The Creek will add 5 strookes to your game, due to the greens.

Sharks Tooth made top 100 right after completion
Need to find a Watercolor guest to go with I think though

Having played Indian Bayou, Kelly's, Regatta Bay, Windswept, Bay Point, Hombre, Holiday, Shalimar, Camp Creek, Santa Rosa, Burnt Pine, Raven, and one in PCB that was so unremarkable I can't even remember its name, I can sincerely tell you that Camp Creek is both the most expensive and the most challenging particularly if there has been rain to fill the sand wastes bordering many of the fairways. In order of my own preferences I like CC, Kelly's, Windswept, Bay Point, Hombre, the Sandestin courses, Shalimar, Indian Bayou, and then whatever is left. Enjoy.
Guest, member or employee. Having played most all of the courses in the area I can agree with the other posters that CC is the most challenging. Fazio design means not many flat lies and the grounds crew keep the greens fast and pin locations in places where you better not be above the hole. I will say though that I seem to lose more balls at Sharks Tooth ??????
