Where golf in Gulf Shores began.
The course was built in the 1960s as the first golf course in Gulf Shores, Alabama. The beautiful Gulf Coast setting, a challenging course and an elegant clubhouse create an atmosphere that both the novice and the enthusiast admire.
In November 2005 the course closed for a complete renovation under the guidance of Jay and Carter Morrish. The result is a spectacular layout that no golf enthusiast will want to miss.

The course
Reimagined by Jay and Carter Morrish
The 2005 renovation lengthened the par-71 course by 300 yards and added numerous water features, enhanced fairways and additional bunkers that put real teeth into the original routing.
Tees run from 4,700 yards to a championship 6,900, with a rating and slope of 72.9 / 123 from the back markers. The club has hosted top amateur, open and collegiate events, and it stays fun for the whole family.
