Reynolds Plantation
This resort has four courses that are open to the public the Plantation Great Waters Oconee and National as well as one private course the Creek Club Opened in 1988 the 6,698 yard Plantation Course designed by Bob Cupp was the first built at Reynolds Plantation There is water water everywhere on this course so it s easy to find the drink In fact water comes into play on nine holes Cupp designed a wide variety of holes with par 4s ranging in length from 356 yards to 474 yards Both of the par 5s on the front nine have water behind the green so players who go for the green in two must miss short instead of long On the back nine the greens on the par 5s are guarded by water on opposite side with a pond on the right of the 495 yard 16th and one on the left of the 493 yard 18th The Jack Nicklaus designed Great Waters Course was opened in 1992 A 7,048 yard par 72 layout it was named one of the five best Nicklaus designed courses you can play by GOLF Magazine The front nine plays within a forest of pines and mature trees with creeks weaving in and out of the fairways However the 9th hole gives players a glimpse of what is to come on the back side The green is framed by Lake Oconee on the right forcing players to go over the water in order to reach the putting surface On the back nine the greens on the 9th 11th 13th 14th and 16th all rest along the lake and are visually intimidating The National opened in 1997 was built by Tom Fazio and is a 27 hole facilty Players compete on a combination of three nine hole courses The Cove Course is the longest measuring 3,533 yards from the back One of its most interesting holes is the 449 yard par 4 8th which features a 90 degree dogleg to the right A player who can fade the ball around the corner successfully will have a short iron or wedge into the green but a large bunker sits waiting on the corner itself The 397 yard par 4 8th on the Bluff Course has a large fairway bunker in the right portion of the landing area and a creek running down the left side The creek turns and meanders short and right of the green forcing players to bring the deep bunker behind the green into play The toughest hole on the Ridge Course is the 553 yard par 5 6th hole Players must decide on the tee whether or not to attack the fairway with their first shot and try to carry a cross area of rough Failing to do so takes going for the green in two out of realm of possibilities but laying up means bringing two large fairway bunkers into play The green itself is on a peninsula of land that doglegs to the left with water in front left and behind the green The Oconee Course was designed by Rees Jones and opened in 2002 Measure 7,029 yards from the tips the course not only challenges golfers with length but with water as well Ponds and creeks come into play on seven holes The Oconee Course does not start out timidly the first hole also ranks as the No 1 handicap hole on the course A 559 yard par 5 players who want to try reaching the green in two will have to clear a pond that sits in front of green and guards the left side A safe lay up is short and right which then opens the green to a wedge or short iron shot The 16th hole is a 422 yard par 4 that demands players lay up short of a creek then hit over the creek and a series of boulders and bunkers in order to reach the green with a mid iron Opened to members in June 2007 the Creek Club designed Jim Engh works its way through trees marsh areas and a new housing development The 12th hole a 569 yard par 5 is a classic risk reward hole Players who can successfully hit their drive straight through a shoot shorten the hole and take second shot dangers out of play Those selecting the safer route to the left off the tee must hit over a finger of water in order to reach the green or the landing area for their lay up The 13th hole is a 183 yard par 3 that is all carry over the water while 14th is another long par 5 559 yards that forces players to reach the green by hitting over a small stream that protects the front of the green
