Where Golf and Lakefront Meet
The Lake Course winds along the shoreline like it was always meant to be there. Every hole flows naturally into the next, the Tennessee River visible from the fairways, the landscape untouched by anything but thoughtful design.


Seven National Championships Hosted Here
The Lake Course has earned its place among Alabama's finest. Seven NJCAA Division II Championships have been decided on these fairways, and the course remains the top public layout in North Alabama.
The 19th Hole
Goose Pond Bar & Grille sits where the course meets the water, a place to settle in after eighteen holes or gather before you play. The patio overlooks the lake, cold drinks are always ready, and the kitchen knows how to feed hungry golfers.
