Kingwood Golf Club & Resort
About
Kingwood Golf Club in Clayton is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, surrounded by nearly 150,000 acres of protected national forest. While playing the course, it's likely you'll hear the roar of the nearby Chattooga River. The course is considered one of Georgia's best, thanks in large part to the stunning location, which lends mature hardwoods, rippling brooks, and lush green hills. The visually stunning golf course can seem intimidating, but four sets of tees guarantee that players of all skill levels can enjoy playing it. The par-71 layout measures just over 6,000 yards, a demanding length given the small greens and tight landing areas. A variety of elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers will test your accuracy at Kingwood G.C. Tee shot placement will also be an important factor in your score.

Golfer Reviews
Great Mountain Course
Fairways were like carpet....rough was challenging....greens were in excellent shape....thought the first cut around greens were incredible and plenty of room around the greens to recover if one misses the green.....many challenging holes yet plenty of opportunities to take chances for birdies and eagles.
All around, this is a fabulous course and we plan to go back often. Just an enjoyable outing....can't wait to play there again!!
mountain golf
Short but challenging due to elevation changes, water or woods on almost every hole. May need to bring some extra ammo if you're not a straight shooter!
Always Love PlayingThis Course
I vacation up in Clayton twice a year. While up there, I always try to play a couple rounds at Kingwood. I love this golf course. The only drawback is that they always seem to have new ownership. The property and course are amazing. Just a shame that this place has not caught on. If you are in the area, this is definitely worth a visit. Greens and fairways are always in good shape. You cannot beat the views while out there. Makes the double bogeys easier to swallow.
Good times
Always a challenge playing the rolling hills of north Georgia
The course was very nice except for #15 and #17
The course was very nice. The only drawback were holes 15 and 17. It seems a shame to finish your round with those holes being a part of it. On 17 I would recommend the golf course connect both areas of fairways.
Fair bu tchallenging
Course was great condition and beautiful views. Don't let views distract from shot placements required. Score able holes but placement key
Kingwood A Must Play
I teed of at 11:20 am. No wait. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the course. Fairways and greens were in great shape. I loved playing here.
Disappointment. I'm a diebetic and they did not let coolers on the course. So when I went in for a bite at the turn, there was no snack bar. They said they had Hotdogs and sandwiches but they were out. It was 1pm. Candy just doesn't cut it.
All in all , great golfing though. I would return.
Great Course, Great People
Love this place! Really fun course and great people!

Kingwood
Course is always is good shape. Can catch sum really good prices on here. #15-17 are tricked up holes especially 15 &17 other than that really fun track
conditions
Never has been great, but it's got a lot of bare ground and loss of grass. Greens are good.
New owners, again, and long time staff have been fired.
Great mountain golf!!
Will play this course regularly. Great course, well maintained, awesome views.
friendly staff
Very friendly staff, great layout, some spots on the course that need to be addressed but overall very good quaility.
very nice course
I liked the layout. A couple of quirky holes. Tough walk as it was cart path only and very slow greens. I look forward to playing this course with open fairways and fast greens.
This is a fun course
enjoyed round. Staff friendly,course very nice for this time of year.
Kingwood
Tight, hilly and very challenging and there is only one difficult blind tee shot
The jewel of NE GA.
Short but challenging and fun. Elevated greens, creeks and hilly. One of my favorite courses.
