Big Spring Lake Golf Club
About Big Spring Lake Golf Club
Big Spring Lake Golf Club is a semi-private course set on Sand Mountain in Albertville, Alabama. Four sets of tees let the layout suit a range of abilities, stretching to more than 6,100 yards from the back markers and playing about 5,022 yards from the forward tees.
The par-72 design moves across varied topography, with tree-lined doglegs and water in play on eight holes, creating a number of risk-and-reward decisions. The closing stretch of 16, 17 and 18, known as "The Loop," often decides the outcome of a round.
The club also hosts special events, with staff on hand to help organize gatherings.
