Description

Overview

A members-only private club, Willow Point offers a family-friendly atmosphere and activities calendar throughout the year. Membership at Willow Point is by application only with sponsorship by current members required.

Willow Point is a lakefront golf course located on beautiful Lake Martin in Alexander City, AL. The course features 18 holes of championship golf and two unique experiences: the links-style front nine holes with fairways protected by trees and fescue grass-and the back nine, where Lake Martin comes into play on six holes. Twelve holes are located along the shores of Lake Martin - and all 18 holes have a view of the lake.

In 2003, the entire course, including the practice facility, entry road and clubhouse was renovated. The world-renown architectural firm of Hurdzan / Fry was selected based on their reputation for designing some of the most beautiful, challenging and environmentally sound golf courses in the world. Currently, Willow Point is wrapping up another renovation by Dana Fry and Jason Straka with the goal of improving upon the work that was done in 2003. Though the routing of the golf course remains at heart, every hole has multiple improvements, some more dramatic than others. All tees, greens and fairways are new. With the installation of TifEagle Greens, Zeon Zoysia tees and fairways, new and additional Bermuda rough, all new Better Billy Bunkers throughout, as well as new and improved Fescue areas, Willow Point is poised to exceed expectations as one of the most stunning lakeside golf courses in the country.
