In 2021, Kiva Dunes was rated number forty-eight among the NBC Golfer’s Choice and earned an in-depth profile in Links Magazine. In 2019, Kiva Dunes held its place as the No. 1 Public Golf Course in the State. The distinction from Golf Advisor takes into consideration golfer’s reviews, including everything from architecture, to course layout, and even sta friendliness. One reviewer on Golf Advisor stated, “Kiva is a hidden gem… you could play there every day and it never gets old!”
Though unique and challenging, the course’s design is one that does not penalize every bad shot like many other high-ranked courses, lending to an overall relaxed playing experience. First opened in 1995, Kiva Dunes has proven itself a testament to Jim Edgemon & Jerry Pate’s shared love of golf in the two decades since. Their combined knowledge, personal insight, and determination to put their personal golfing experience to proper use. In addition to Jerry Pate’s original design, his more recent renovations have consistently improved upon an already breathtaking layout, which has set the course far above most golf resort destinations in the country.
With its many national distinctions, it’s no wonder Kiva Dunes always finds itself at the top of the list when people talk about the best golf in Alabama. This nationally-ranked golf course allows many opportunities for incredible, oneof-a-kind shots in an unforgettable setting.
