Eat a Little Turkey, Play a Little Golf This Thanksgiving

So we’re a week out from Thanksgiving…any golf plans for the big holiday? Will you resist the urge to be lazy following the big turkey dinner, or will you head out for a round of golf? Maybe you’re thinking it will simply be too cold to hit the greens this late in November.

Not in Gulf Shores & Orange Beach. Comfortably cool, yes, but you’re not likely to find frigid, freezing temperatures down on the Gulf. And if you’ve ever thought how brutal it is to play golf under the hot summer sun, you’d appreciate the cooler (not cold) on the Gulf Coast this time of year. For many of us it is, simply put, the best time of year to play Gulf Shores golf.

There’s still time to put together a Thanksgiving golf vacation. And one great thing about Gulf Shores & Orange Beach is the variety of Gulf-front accommodations. Enjoy preparing and eating your Thanksgiving meal in your condo or beach house with a view of the Gulf right outside the window, or keep things simple with a hotel room and dinner out.

Then get out and enjoy the beach, enjoy the weather and, of course, enjoy the golf. Happy (early) Thanksgiving!

Conveniently is the best way to book a round of golf. Get out there and enjoy those Gulf Coast greens.
