About Badin Lake Golf Club
Rolling course at neighboring Badin Lake, about 20 minutes north of Tillery.

Planning
Golf in the Lake Tillery area
Golf around Lake Tillery is relaxed, rolling Piedmont golf: tree-lined fairways, elevation changes from the Uwharrie ridges, and tee times that are far easier to get than in Charlotte. The Tillery Tradition community on the western shore is built around its own club, which makes it the lake's clearest golf-and-water address.
Beyond the lake, a short rotation of public and club courses across Stanly and Montgomery counties gives a resident golfer variety without a long drive. Many lake owners play early, before the heat and the afternoon boat traffic, and finish on the water by lunch.
Policies on guest play, membership, and tee times vary from club to club and change over time. Check each course's current rules before planning a round, particularly at semi-private clubs.

Location
Badin Lake Golf Club and Badin
Badin Lake Golf Club is in or near Badin, in Stanly County. A planned Alcoa company village on neighboring Badin Lake, with an unusual French-influenced street plan. Distance from the water: about 20 minutes north.
Badin was built as an aluminum company village, and the layout still shows it — tight streets, uniform cottages, and a distinct historic core. It is a worthwhile drive from Tillery, and it gives lake visitors a second reservoir, Badin Lake, to explore.
