The 18-hole golf course was built in 1968 to complement the Hot Mineral Pool.  The course is a championship caliber layout of over 7500 yards.  It was host to the SEC Championship numerous times.  It has a course rating of 75.8 and a slope of 129.  The architect, Robert Simmons, has built some of the most beautiful courses in the country. He is known for allowing the golf course to take the shape of the land.  Each hole at Dothan National is elegantly placed into the flowing hills of lower Alabama.  Majestic pine trees line the holes.  Wildlife is abundant throughout the course.  Take note of the white and black fox squirrels who may come up to your cart looking for peanut butter crackers.
