Willow Point Golf & Country Club

Willow Point stands as a testament to classic Alabama golf, a place where tradition and the spirit of the game intertwine against the backdrop of Lake Martin. Carved into the rolling landscape near Alexander City, the course reflects a Golden Age design philosophy, though tempered by later refinements. It plays as a second shot golf course, with undulating greens and fairways winding through mature pines and hardwoods, placing a premium on strategic play and careful approach shots. While not known for its brutal length, Willow Point is a shot makers course, with subtle doglegs that reward golfers who can move the ball both ways. The original design bears the mark of values of a bygone era, and has been touched by modern visionaries who understood its foundational appeal. This blend of eras ensures that Willow Point remains both challenging and accessible to a range of skill levels. While Willow Point hasn't hosted major championships, its regional prominence is undeniable. It is a beloved course for Alabamans, offering a challenging yet enjoyable golf experience steeped in southern hospitality. The club is more than just the course; it’s a gathering place for a community passionate about the game and the camaraderie it fosters. The club is also known for its storied 19th hole, where generations of members and guests have shared tales of triumph and near misses. There is often live music and the smell of bbq wafts over the area as a gathering of good friends celebrate the day. It is a true southern staple and one that continues to grow.
