The Hole Story: Peninsula’s Cypress Course Hole 1
Rest and relaxation looks different for every visitor to Alabama’s white-sand beaches.
If you’re a golfer, swinging a club may be your ideal way to unwind. Combine that with green, rolling fairways and clear-blue skies and you may find just what the doctor ordered.
At Peninsula Golf and Racquet Club, you’ll find 27 holes of championship Gulf Shores golf on three distinctive nine-hole courses: Cypress, Lakes and Marsh. When you’re ready to relax, hop in a golf cart and cruise the Earl Stone-designed course. Peninsula boasts more than 7,000 yards of play and offers a challenging game for all skills levels. The course is also rated 4.5 stars by Golf Digest and has been noted as one of the “most memorable and enjoyable” courses in the southeast.
When you’re ready to perfect your golfing skills, schedule a lesson with a PGA pro at Peninsula. There are single lessons, junior lessons and even group rates available.
How to Play the Hole
Start your game on the Cypress course’s hole number one. The pros at Peninsula say your shot must avoid the trees at the corner of the sharp dog leg to the right. Long hitters may hit past the trees and short hitters should hit to the 150-yard marker.
