If you've never played one of the nearly
50 courses designed by veteran architect Earl
Stone, the Gulf Shores Golf Association offers
three of his very best. The first is the 18-hole
layout at Rock Creek Golf Club, one of the most
challenging and grandly surprising courses in
lower Alabama.
The
surprise at Rock Creek is the stunning topography,
with some of Baldwin County's highest elevations
overlooking freshwater wetlands and the Rock
Creek basin. The tall pines and hardwoods that
line nearly every fairway only enhance the visual
effect.
Centerpiece
of the master-planned Rock Creek residential
community, this Earl Stone championship golf
course is one that the serious golfer won't
want to miss. Rock Creek also features full
clubhouse amenities, including a complete lunch
menu and group outing banquet facilities, as
well as certified golf instruction on a hilltop
practice tee that must be seen to be appreciated.
