Auburn University Club
Situated on 225 acres of beautiful rolling hills and woodlands, Auburn University Club boasts of an 18-hole, 7,326-yard championship golf course that surrounds the 25-acre Yarbrough Lake, while partly bordered by Saugahatchee Creek. Our course was officially opened in 1999, and is set against a backdrop of magnificent trees, wetlands, creeks, and streams, while its prominent natural water features provide a vital and challenging course for golf enthusiasts. Designed by former Auburn golfer Bill Bergin, the course was constructed with the intention of hosting NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and other championship golf tournaments.
Bergin returned in 2022 to renovate Auburn University Club. The renovation included new Tift Eagle greens, 12 new tee boxes, and 12 new bunkers. With beautiful Tift Eagle greens set amidst a balanced mix of chipping areas, bunkers, roughs and fairways, our course may be challenging but is playable and welcoming for all levels of golfers.
Grand National Robert Trent Jones

Grand National is built on 600-acre Lake Saugahatchee with 32 of the 54 holes draped along its filigreed shores.
