Spencer T. Olin Golf Course

4701 College Ave., Alton, IL 62002

Professional Teams

Spencer T. Olin is proud to be the Metro East's only Arnold Palmer designed facility. Scenic views are the centerpiece of this 18-hole golf championship course that plays at just under 7,000 yards.

The deceptively open design places a premium on accurate iron play in order to get close to the pin. This course is challenging enough for the skilled player but enjoyable for the recreational golfer as well. A 9-hole par three Learning Center provides experiences and challenges for golfers of all ages.

Spencer T. Olin Golf Course is a full-service food and beverage facility with an experienced staff that can help with pre-tournament planning, rule sheets, scorecards, tournament scoring. The indoor Clubhouse Lounge seats up to 175 and you can utilize the outdoor space at the James Goodwin Pavilion for an additional 150 guests.
