Complementing its variety of outdoor parks, Enterprise also maintains modern and spacious indoor recreational facilities. In addition to six baseball fields, the M.N. “Jug” Brown Recreational Center and E.A. “Moose” Hope Gymnasium provide ample room for indoor sports and recreational activities. Enterprise-Ozark Community College and the Enterprise YMCA also offer year-round facilities and activities.

With its deep woods, open fields, streams, rivers and lakes, Enterprise is a great place for hunters and outdoorsmen. Deer, turkey, duck, dove and wild hog are plentiful throughout the woods and fields, while bass, bream, crappie and catfish can be found in nearby Lake Tholocco and other streams, rivers and ponds. Lake Tholocco on Fort Rucker is open to the public and offers swimming and other water sports.

With “three of the toughest holes in golf,” premier 18-hole public course Tartan Pines is designed to challenge the seasoned golf pro but is also enjoyable for any golfer.

With its tree-lined fairways, lake views and rolling hills, the Enterprise Country Club provides some of the most challenging golf in the area. Built in 1960, this beautiful course is an 18-hole par 72 that features large and fast greens and uneven topography, making this course simultaneously a challenge and a joy to play.

Looking for something a little less active? Try a relaxing walk in Enterprise’s quiet, deep woods and enjoy the wildflowers, birding and abundance of natural beauty.
