Gunter's Landing
Guntersville, AL
Built from official course/provider information and available golfer signal. This is a researched NTB guide, not a claimed firsthand review.
THE NTB TAKE
Why burn
the extra gas?
Gunter’s Landing is the kind of course that makes an 81-mile drive feel like an actual golf trip. The trees separate the holes, the elevation keeps the view changing, and a 140 slope from the back tees should end any debate about whether the boys need to “see all of it.” They do not. The weekend price is not bargain-bin golf, but the current review signal is strong enough to support the trip. This looks especially good paired with a night or another round around Lake Guntersville.
