Featured Alabama Destination

The Twin Cities of Auburn & Opelika

Who'd ever think you'd find the best golf city in America right in the middle of a big football town in a bigger football state? But that's exactly why you should look! In the twin cities of Auburn and Opelika, Alabama, where being the 2010 NCAA national football champions might be the best thing we're currently known for, golf is almost as big a passion. You'll see it everywhere you look: in the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail's stunning 54 holes of 4 1/2-star golf at Grand National, a site that more than lives up to Jones' description as the best for golf he'd ever seen. It's there in the sturdy 3 1/2-star layout at Auburn Links, whose twists and turns make it a local favorite. It's there in the sporty 3-star Indian Pines, a solid municipal course that our cities share and that's more popular than the Brunswick stew at Price's Barbecue House! And it's there among the rolling hills and lakes of the Auburn Tigers' home golf course, the Auburn University Club at Yarbrough Farms which features 18 championship holes situated on 225 beautiful acres.
