Reynolds Lake Oconee (The Creek Club)

Private: A course for members and their invited guests only.

Est. 2007

Reynolds Lake Oconee (The Creek Club): The private Creek Club is a well-rated golf course and testing tree-lined parkland layout. Richland Creek comes into play on 14 holes, demanding forced carries on eight of them, either off the tee or from the fairway. Much like the creek, the course flows with constantly changing features, appearing easy-going at some points, more challenging at others.

Spread around the extensive lakeside and residential development of Reynolds Lake Oconee are 126-holes of golf, contained in five public-access courses and the members-only Creek Club and Richland course.

The Reynolds Lake Oconee courses have been designed and crafted by a veritable Who's Who of great course architects, including: Jack Nicklaus (Great Waters), Bob Cupp (The Landing and The Preserve), Tom Fazio (The National and Richland courses), Rees Jones (The Oconee), and Jim Engh (The Creek Club).

Limited access: this private course is generally playable only by members and their invited guests. Five of the seven Reynolds Lake Oconee courses are accessible on a Stay&Play basis.

Did you know?

Recognised for its natural beauty and riverside forests, the Oconee River has provided a family retreat for over 100 years. Many families quickly decided to "linger longer," turning one-or-two day visits into three-four-or five day family retreats.

By 1982, the river had become Lake Oconee, and Reynolds Plantation, now known as Reynolds Lake Oconee, was founded. It has evolved into a globally recognised resort, community and club, with seven golf courses, nine dining venues, four full-service marinas, swimming pools, 21 miles of walking and biking trails, a world class fitness and tennis club, and The Ritz-Carlton Hotel at its centre.
