Golf Courses

Oconee Club at Reynolds Plantation

Architect:  Rees Jones
Description:
The Oconee Course, the Rees Jones-designed resort course, presents a golfing challenge unmatched by any other in the nation. Described by many as "mind-game golf," the new Jones addition to the Reynolds Plantation landscape is designed to be a true risk/reward challenge, often forcing golfers to choose between direct tee shots over inlets of Lake Oconee and long drives down tree-lined dog-leg fairways. Noted for its spectacular par threes - featuring multiple tee boxes, drop shots from elevated tees and numerous water hazards - the course offers five holes in which Lake Oconee comes directly into play and four others tendering magnificent lake views. Though the interior creeks and ponds and the expansive vistas of Lake Oconee provide spectacular scenery for Oconee Course golfers, they also ensure an unrivaled challenge for players of all experience levels.

Great Waters Course at Reynolds Plantation

Architect:  Jack Nicklaus
Description:
Great Waters, the 18-hole Jack Nicklaus-signature design, winds through densely wooded evergreen corridors only to open up to nine holes featuring the blue waters of Lake Oconee as the rough. Named as one of the best courses in Georgia, second only to Augusta National, Great Waters proves to be one of the most aesthetically inspiring golf courses in the continental United States.

Bluff / Ridge Course at Reynolds National 

Architect:  Tom Fazio
Description:
Tom Fazio's masterpiece, the 27-hole Reynolds National Course, plays long and narrow through the towering pines and flowering dogwoods that are native to middle Georgia. With more than 100 bunkers, several holes tucked along the shores of Lake Oconee and large undulating greens, the National Course gives players little room for error. Fazio uses the natural beauty of the land in conjunction with his expert eye for a challenging layout to create a true work of art.
