Ranked by GOLF Magazine among America's top courses and dominating the list of Best Courses in Georgia annually. Each course features unique designs by nationally recognized architects.
Signature Nicklaus design on the water. Ranked #2 in Georgia. Deep-water lake holes make this the most photographed course at Reynolds.
Nicklaus's second Reynolds design. Longer and more demanding than Great Waters, favoring the low-handicap player seeking a strategic challenge.
Rees Jones layout known for its playability across all skill levels. Consistent condition and scenic lakeside routing.
Bob Cupp's classic Georgia layout. Wooded corridors, strategic bunkering, and a traditional feel distinct from the lakeside courses.
Davis Love III design. A members' favorite for its challenging routing and finishing holes that test all aspects of the game.
The Great Waters course also anchors its own residential sub-community with deep-water lake lots and direct golf frontage. Homes from $1.5M+.
