The Chimneys Golf Course
About
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.

Great value
This course is short but has some has some long holes to offset the drivable par 4s. The rough was deep and the fairways and greens were soft. The greens are a little slow but roll true. The staff was nice.
Always a Good Time
I have been playing here for several years now and it's always been one of my favorite courses to play. The upkeep has definitely improved over the years. Needless to say I will enjoy many more years of play here. It has only helped improve my game.
Really like this course . Great value
This is one of my favorite courses. I like that there are no homes around the course. Just really nice scenery.
Worth the ride. Greens were unpredictable, fairways logos enough for a picnic. Pace was a little disappointing, should have packed that picnic. The turn at the clubhouse you have to walk right past the bathroom to get your food...nasty when you get a whiff of some bad feelings on your way to a hotdog lunch. No beverage cart??? Overall a Great course !
Green way to slow.
Green way to slow. The greens was not rolled or cutt. This course will screw your putting up. You have to hit the putt.
Played this course four years ago a lot. The city of Winder has About the course since then. Course is in great shape but the Greens are really way too long.
This course is a gem.
Picturesque layout and the course is in beautiful condition. Fairways were perfect and greens held good. Greens were a little slow on this day. Hope to play this course often.
Great value
Very nice course. Challenging enough. No water hazards. Nice value!!
Love this course
This is a great place to play a round. The fair ways and greens are in great shape. They continue to improve the course and maintain it. They offer food and drink. Great hamburgers at the turn. Make sure you tip the lady.
Beautiful
This is my second time playing this course. It was in great shape! The greens were soft and rolled true consistently. I saw repair marks on them which tells me other players that play here respect the conditions as well. The fairways were very cushy like walking on thick carpet at home....but the down side of that was you didn't get much roll..lol. I plan on playing here again soon.
Maturing Very Well
It had been several years since I was out at Chimneys.
Conditions...tees, fairways, bunkers, and greens are all in good shape. Pace was a tad over 4 hrs for our 3some but it moved smoothly.
The fairways are lush, and the rough even more so! The greens are receptive, not super fast imo they are great to putt because you can get the ball to the hole and not be too concerned about a 3-4' come backer.
Layout has a great mix of holes. You have some scoring chances on a couple of driveable par 4 holes, several others you could have a 9i or wedge approach. There are also some holes where bogey is not a bad score. I'd like to see the rough cut back a bit, it can be hard to find balls in it, but clearly they intend for the rough to add to the difficulty.
Typical with north GA, you have some elevation change, #10 is probably the steepest drop from tee to green, but some play uphill as well...good variety.
No homes on the course, just pure golf. Golf on a Sat. morning for under $50 is a value, on a course in this kind of shape, it's a great value.
I'll be back.
Chimneys is in Great Condition!
I've playing chimneys many times over the years. Current course conditions are the best I've seen. Several inches of rain in the last couple weeks has the fairways and greens are in excellent shape.
Much improved!
I have played Chimneys many times over the last five years, and this week it was by far in the best shape I have ever seen it. While many of the courses in the area that I play are struggling with bare spots in fairways, Chimneys has very nice, even, grassy fairways. The greens were also in great shape. The newly remodeled clubhouse looks much more contemporary than previously. For the price this is one of the best values in the area. The front nine has some challenging holes, the back is easier. This course would be good for the average golfer, as I am one. Highly recommended.
Amazing course! Fairways were perfect, greens were in great shape.
Now at the top of my list of favorite Georgia courses. It is laid out for all level of players to enjoy. As a women player, this is very important to me. Overall beautiful course, that is convenient to get to.
Great experience
Had a great experience first time playing here! Course layout is challenging on many holes but fair. Conditions absolutely GREAT. Awesome greens, fairway lies were wonderful. Wonderful staff too. I look forward to playing The Chimneys again soon and hoepfully often!
