Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Cambrian Ridge
Greenville, Alabama • 27 Championship Holes • 9 Hole Short Course
Known by avid golfers as one of the most beautiful and most challenging
stops on the Trail, Cambrian Ridge in Greenville lies just 40
miles from Montgomery. It is well worth the ride for any golfer looking
for 36 holes of jaw-dropping golf.
The Sherling/Canyon combination was
named by Golf Digest as the third best new public course in
America in 1994 and 13th in their list of America's Top 50 Affordable
Courses. This combination was also named by Golf Digest's Places to
Play as one of the nation's 40 Super Value Courses.
Cambrian Ridge was immortalized on the 2003 Microsoft golf game, Links, and was the subject of an extensive ad campaign in
Golf magazine promoting the game.

CANYON |
The
Canyon nine, carved from former hunting grounds where deer
blinds remain nailed to the hard-wood, is a thrilling
stretch of target-style golf with Hole No. 1 being a
501-yard par-4 that drops some 200 feet from tee to fairway. |
|
LOBLOLLY |
The
Loblolly nine, with its gently rolling fairways,
cathedral-like pines and water-fronted greens, exudes a
stately, Augusta-like quality. The tee shot on the par-4
seventh hole is elevated and played to a valley, and the
approach shot is uphill to a beautifully bunkered green. |
|
SHERLING |
The
Sherling nine may be the best nine on the entire Trail.
Hole No. 4 is a gorgeous par-3 over a corner of Sherling Lake. The green tilts at an angle away from the tee and stretches over thirty yards from front right to back left,
with plenty of undulations in between. |
|
SHORT |
The
nine-hole Short Course is a marvelous collection of
par-three holes laid out beautifully between the ridge and
Sherling lake. With water in play on five of the holes, the Short Course is both scenic and challenging.
