Course Highlights
The Chimney delivers consistently impressive conditions with plush fairways, well-manicured rough, and excellent greens that keep golfers returning. Exceptionally welcoming staff and a thoughtfully designed layout away from surrounding development make every round memorable.

About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6500 yards
Slope 127
Rating 71.4

The Chimneys Golf Course features 18 holes of exceptional golf. Our signature feature is the abundance of native rock found on-site, intricately hand-laid throughout the course to accent our greens, fairways, and pedestal tees. With strict attention to detail and no homes in sight, the course plays as a par 72, just shy of 6500 yards over five sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all abilities. Combined with southern, hometown charm, The Chimneys is an experience unlike any public course in north Georgia.

Wilderness Course

Very nicely landscaped course from tee to green. Love the fact that the course is isolated from residential development allowing you to be one with nature. Only little knock I have about the course is that the greens, although healthy looking, had a very slow pace. I'm sure once the hot weather breaks, the greens will firm up and provide better putting conditions.

Cut the grass

Greens were high and ridiculously slow. I will say they were soft though. Second cut on fairways could definitely been a bit shorter.

Great Course

It took us to get there about an hour from Marietta, but it was worth.the driving.

The course is maintained so nice. The greens were a little slow, but we were advised. The fast greens make this course even better.

Fantastic condition

The Chimneys course was in great condition. From tee box to green everything was plush and green. Sand traps were freshly raked too. The course was not crowded at all for our 1:26 tee time. Our twosome finished in less than. 3.5 hours.

We'll absolutely play here again soon.

Still in Great Shape

Tee to Green is in pristine shape. Great deal for $40.

The greens were true but they were about as slow any I’ve ever played. That’s normally not the case.
