About
The course at Soldiers Creek Golf Club was designed by Scott Clark, a former Golf Course Superintendent at The Grand Hotel in Point Clear Alabama and the current Superintendent at The Peninsula Golf Club in Gulf Shores Alabama. While this is Scott's first attempt in playing the role of a course architect, it also reveals his depth of experience in the golf course industry. The design goals of building a course that would be enjoyable for high handicappers as well as low handicappers was met in this design.
The course features wide player-friendly fairways. Also, water comes into play on only two holes which makes navigating this course easier for high handicappers. A large natural turf driving range and 10,000 square foot practice green is available as a warm-up or practice area.
Soldiers Creek Golf Club is owned by the Norman Woerner family. Norman is a member of the Woerner Turf family of sod producers. Woerner Turf is a world-wide leader in turf production. The company provides turf for many golf courses ranging from Augusta National to new courses in Hong Kong. They also supply the turf for the NFL Super Bowl and the NFL Pro Bowl in Hawaii.
Southern Turf Nurseries provided the Tif Eagle for Soldiers Creek Golf Club. This turf grass is considered by many to be the best-of-the-best turf for southern golf course greens. The fairways and roughs are Tif 419, a dense-growing emerald-colored grass that's perfect for plush fairways.The greens feature Tif Eagle, the newest and best-of-the-best southern turf grass for golf course greens. An increasingly popular choice for new golf courses and redesigns, this turf permits a closer cut, thus allowing for smoother, faster greens.
Located only several miles from Alabama's sun-kissed Gulf Coast, this new 18 hole championship course is part of the Woerner Preserve Resort. Our friendly staff welcomes you to play the newest course on the Gulf Coast. Yes, we are now open. Come spend some time with family or friends.

Off the beaten path
Busy day, its beach season so thats expected. My second time playing here and it seemed like this time the staff wasn't prepared for the influx of players, missed my tee time because there weren't enough carts which I'm not made about. It is definitely a neat track that is literally in the middle of nowhere, but overall well maintained. The greens were super slow but we have gotten weeks of rain here so I'm sure that doesn't help with growth. Overall I really like Soldiers Creek
Tight course
Tight laid out.
Sand bunkers around all greens
Long par 4's holes
The only bad thing about this course is they lost several greens.
Good course, good value
Overall good value for a course to play while on vacation
Latest Round
Course was in better shape than last time I played. The greens are in much better shape but very slow.
Didn’t have my GolfNow reservation
When I went to check in the employee said he couldn’t find my reservation in the system. I showed him the confirmation email and fortunately it worked out that no one else had booked the same tee time, but there seemed to be some disconnect between GolfNow and the golf course. This was only my 4th or 5th time using GolfNow, but it was the first time my reservation couldn’t be located.
Hidden Gem
A really nice well maintained course with friendly staff!
3 hr 30 min round
Beautiful golf course. Fairways in great condition and many holes are a challenge to score well. Greens on the front were a bit rough, but they are on the mend for sure. Friendly staff and a fun experience. I will definitely be back.
Great day, greens need a little work
Had a good day. Beautiful weather. Greens were in rough shape, It had been raining a lot in previous days so they were a little long and the snow back in winter time might have ruined some of them. All fixable and didn't really put a damper on our day. Great value for the price we paid and I would go back and recommend it to others.
Nice layout
I enjoyed my round, but the greens are in rough shape. I may try playing here again in about a month and hopefully the greens will be in better shape
Tee time for 5/18
The course was closed so didn't get to play or notification.
could be 5 star
The greens were tore up and under repair, but the rest of the experience was great.
Don’t waste your money!
Fairways rock hard. Greens on front nine especially were a disaster! See photos. Paid $50…$25 would have been too much! Avoid this course!!!
Photos wouldn’t load. They show greens in horrible condition, with more sand than grass.
