Dothan National Golf Club and Hotel

The course has great potential, but right now it’s just not worth your time. Once they finish with redoing the numerous greens that are being repaired, I will definitely go back. The price I paid to play seemed to be in direct relationship to the course condition, so I was not upset. It served my purpose, which was to play as early as possible and work on my swing.

I have played this course many times but not in the last 2-3 years. The greens are the worst I have ever seen and I have been playing golf for 30+ years. There are large holes on all greens and grass only covers about 50% of the greens.

Holes 3 and 7 have no grass on them and when I played on 6/20/26 those 2 “greens” were 100% hard packed mud. Not sure how they get people to come out and pay for this. I will never play at this course again.

Good layout but conditions were horrific. Full dirt greens on 3 holes

Not sure happened to the greens but they are absolutely unacceptable. Most greens have about 20% grass and bumpy sand for the rest. They would be better off with temp greens at this point. It didn’t appear that they are doing anything to fix them.

Great course. Greens and tee boxes are in good shape

Last year Dothan National was improving by leaps and bounds. I played it a lot through Golfnow/Golfpass Deals.at 7AM. Could go 18 holes and be back home by 9:45. That Deal time has been eliminated and left 1:30 PM Deals, so I hadn't played it in almost 9 months. It is back to the pre 2025 condition and that is a bad, very bad thing. Greens are gone again from either disease ir dryness or.bith. The fairways are just dry weeds or dirt. It is a shame because it is a fun layout. I don't know what changed, but it is sad to see.

Good layout. Greens will be in good shape when the seeding and fertilizer takes effect. Greens roll true!

Cannot beat winter golf on a historic course! Great price, incredible food, and a fun open course. Can't wait to be back!

When I first played Dothan National back in 2019, the course just wasn’t in good shape. The greens and fairways needed a lot of attention, and overall it felt neglected. I remember leaving thinking it had a lot of potential, but it just wasn’t there yet.

Fast forward to now, and the improvement is remarkable. Over the past six months, you can clearly see how much effort has gone into bringing this course back. The greens are rolling much better, the fairways have really filled in, and you constantly see maintenance crews out working. Whoever is managing it now deserves credit for the turnaround.

I usually book through GolfNow Hot Deals, paying between $17.99 and $23 for 18 holes with a cart, and for that price, it’s absolutely worth it. The staff is friendly, the carts are gas, and the clubhouse and food have always been solid.

It’s still a work in progress, but it’s become a fun and enjoyable local course again — one I’ll continue to support as long as they keep moving in this direction.

Over the years we have played this course. It is a challenging course. They have made some good improvements. We had not played there in a while but this time the course and greens were in great condition.

We have played many times here. It has been about a year and a half since we played. They have made many improvements and the greens and fairways were in great shape. We won’t wait so long to play here again.

We had played there over a year ago and the greens were pretty bad. This time the greens were very good and the course was in great shape. They have made some cart path improvements. We will play it again soon.

Staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Nice course layout, but due to recent heavy rains, course conditions were not optimal. Some greens were in bad shape and long, as well as some wet areas still on the course. All in all, decent for the price.

Course was still a work in progress but greens were much improved. Glen was friendly and a pleasure to speak with.

Liked the layout but the greens and tee boxes were terrible. No difference in grass height between tee boxes, fairway and rough. About 3/18 greens looked decent, others were the worst I’ve ever seen.
