Overview Alabama's Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail is a collection of 468 holes of championship golf on 11 sites across Alabama. The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail is managed by Sunbelt Golf Corporation. Sunbelt's philosophy from the very beginning was to build the finest collection of public golf courses in the world and run them as a successful business investment. Hampton Cove is a 54-hole golf complex located just southeast of Huntsville, Madison County. Most notable are the two very different 18-hole championship courses, the Highlands Course and the River Course, and one 18-hole par-3 Short Course. The Highlands Course features wooded hills whereas the River Course showcases characteristic ponds, a river, and creeks. Large amounts of dirt were moved to create terrain changes for the courses and thousands of Japanese black pines, oaks, dogwoods, and crepe myrtles were planted. The River Course was built on former soybean fields on the Flint River with 32 interconnected lakes and ponds near the J. D. and Annie S. Hays Nature Preserve. The Short Course has several lakes and ponds but no trees. The facility includes a 35,000-square-foot clubhouse with a golf shop, dining room, grill, and meeting rooms. It is operated by Sunbelt Golf.
