About Pines Crossing Golf Course in Auburn
Formerly known as Indian Pines, this golf course has been jointly owned and operated by Auburn and Opelika since 1976. In order to make way for an extension of the Auburn University Regional Airport’s runway safety area, the golf course closed earlier this year for renovations.
To meet safety mandates, the airport acquired 11.6 acres of land on the course, which affected six of the holes. But don’t worry! With work and configuration, renovations to the golf course ultimately expanded it from 6,300 yards to 7,031 yards.
The official grand opening ceremony took place on Nov. 3rd. Both Auburn Mayor Ron Anders and Opelika Mayer Gary Fuller expressed their excitement for this facility to be back and better than ever.
More about Pines Crossing Golf Course
Teeing off just got easier with the new design at Pines Crossing Golf Course in Auburn! Jerry Bravaro, the course’s head golf professional since 1980, told reports that one of his new favorite features is the course offers six sets of tees on every hole, catering to every skill level.
What’s more, the new design and layout are completely different from the original course’s design, so it will offer fresh and exciting challenges for both returning golfers and newcomers. Although there are many new changes to the course, Pines Crossing has brought back its tee times.
