Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Highland Oaks
Dothan, Alabama • 27 Championship Holes • 9 Hole Short Course
Located in the southeast corner of Alabama, Highland Oaks offers three
nine-hole championship courses and a nine-hole short course. The Highlands/Magnolia combination was
named by Golf Digest as the 7th best new public course in America
in 1994 and 31st 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 Great Value courses.
This 36-hole complex
features some of the longest and most classically designed holes on the
Trail. Each nine has a different personality.
|
HIGHLANDS |
The
Highlands course is the core nine at Highland Oaks and is relatively open
with several lakes in play on four of the nine holes. The peninsula green at the
downhill par-3
sixth has an elusive, beckoning quality. |
|
MAGNOLIA |
The
Magnolia nine is well-named: specimen magnolia trees
dot the higher ground, which is reached via a 1,000 foot
long wooden bridge spanning a marsh filled with
lichen-dappled trees. The feature hole is the 416-yard
fifth, where a split-level fairway offers an option off the
tee. |
|
MARSHWOOD |
Marshwood
has been made famous (or notorious) by its behemoth par-5
sixth, which stretches to 701 yards from the tips. The
422-yard par-4 ninth, a left to right dogleg, is arguably
the best hole at the site and has a tilted green elevated
above a swathe of wetlands. |
|
SHORT |
The
Short Course, a nine-hole par-3, has demanding bunker
placements, three water holes and possibly the best putting
Bermuda greens in the South.
