As the original Arnold Palmer Signature design along the Gulf Coast, the Cotton Creek course combines the mystique of a golf legend with Southern hospitality. Cotton Creek and its sister course, Cypress Bend at Craft Farms, are Palmer’s only Alabama projects.

Featuring rolling fairways and large undulating greens, Cotton Creek at Craft Farms is very playable from the forward tees and a true championship challenge of over 7,000 yards from the tips. True to its Palmer design, this traditional 18-hole masterpiece was laid out to challenge rather than intimidate, with numerous risk/reward opportunities throughout.

Golf Digest rated Cotton Creek one of the 2008-09 Best Places to Play! This 4-1/2 star course, located in Gulf Shores, Alabama,  features tight, rolling fairways surrounded by lakes and its length spans from 6,000 from the front tees to 7,200 from the tips.

The lush course is challenging for low handicap players but with five staggered tee boxes, it is a fun challenge for golfers at any level. Considered a “classic Palmer course,” you’ll find plenty of risk/reward opportunities.

Considering a risky shot to go for the green? Your bravery will be rewarded with the large undulating greens. The 6th Hole is the most challenging on Cotton Creek. With a well-placed tee shot over water to the fairway, the 2nd shot also requires a smart swing over more water to the green. A birdie on this hole delights anyone who rises to meet its challenge!
