Golf in Montevallo

Montevallo is a Shelby County city home to the University of Montevallo, Alabama's public liberal arts university, a historic institution that has occupied its wooded campus in the southern Birmingham corridor since 1896. The university's presence gives Montevallo a community character shaped by academic culture—arts programs, theater, environmental awareness—that distinguishes it from the purely commercial suburban character of the surrounding Shelby County development corridor. The golf course serves both the university community and the local residential population of a city that values its academic identity.
