What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole?
Hole 28. (Laughing) After golfers play 27 holes on property they are ready for a beer. We have 27 really solid holes on property.

What Is Your Favorite Hole? Any Tips to Play It?
On the Magnolia course it is hole #2. The elevated tee box has a tight landing spot and the second shot will have even good golfers begging for mercy.

On the Pines course hole #8 has been voted as one of the top 18 toughest holes in Alabama. The long par 3 plays 235 from the tops.

On the Dogwood course #7 is an ominous looking par 5 that has more landing room than appears from the tee box. The dog leg leg hole as water in front and sand bunkers guarding the green.

Must Have Dish or Drink after the round at the 19th Hole?
The Reuben is my favorite! You cannot go wrong with that sandwich. In addition, everyday we do daily lunch specials where we let out chefs showcase their talents. The locals rave about our menu. Golfers will not be disappointed with anything there order.
