The best things to do in Mobile

“Between the renovated Crossings and Falls plus a Short Course Golf Digest called the best par-3 in America, Magnolia Grove Golf Course is 54 holes of creek-and-pine goodness right here at home. Sneak in a round this week, it’s player friendly without losing its bite and LPGA and Korn Ferry Tour-tested.”

“If your short game needs a little tough love, Rock Creek Golf Club delivers a player-friendly Earl Stone design with well-kept fairways that still keep things interesting. Play a round, then keep the day rolling with their award-winning restaurant and laid-back social events.”

“At Lakewood Golf Club, you get two championship Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail courses, Dogwood and Azalea, plus lessons, clinics and a proper pro shop. Sneak in nine or chase a personal best, then debrief with a cocktail at the 1847 Bar or relax at the Lakewood Clubhouse.”

“Champion Bermuda greens and a challenging, semi-private 18-hole course at Heron Lakes Country Club make for a legit midweek tune-up. Hit the 300-yard-plus range, roll a few on the big two-tier putting green, grab PGA-taught lessons, then debrief at The Oasis Bar & Grill.”
