Glenlakes Golf Club

The Gulf Coast's humidity hangs heavy over this Bruce Devlin design, where towering pines frame generous fairways and water hazards demand respect on nearly half the holes. Devlin's strategic bunkering around the greens rewards precise approach shots, particularly on the risk-reward par-5 finishing hole that tempts long hitters to challenge the lake guarding the green. This Alabama track proves that public golf can deliver both challenge and conditioning without the country club pretense.
