Robert Trent Jones, Hampton Cove
River Course
450 Old Highway 431
Owens Crossroads, AL 35763
We are proud to host the 2nd Annual KJImpact Charity Golf Tournament at the renowned Robert Trent Jones Hampton Cove Highlands Course. Located in Owens Crossroads, Alabama, this course is a true masterpiece of golf course design. With scenic vistas of the northern Alabama landscape, the Highlands course has a blend of tree-lined and links-style holes. An old mule barn just off the fairway on the fifth hole is one of the more recognizable landmarks on the Trail and will punish a second shot that leaks short and right. Creeks or ponds are in play on 13 holes, including on the 16th and 17th, a strong par-3 and par-5 combo where the approach shots must be precise to avoid water lurking short and right.
To ensure an enjoyable experience for all, please adhere to the Hampton Cove River Course dress code:
