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.

Surprising!

I played this course approximately two years ago and was pleasantly surprised. I believe it is owned by the county, but is much like a resort course. Greens are super and of course, the Bermuda is dormant now, . but super great course!

Great shape

All was good. They have switched the front and back. I am not a big fan of the front 9. Too many short par ‘4’s and only one 3 and one 5. The back is great and the course is in great shape!

One of my favorites

ALWAyS enjoy playing & always in good shape. Price to play is more than we like to pay & pace of play slow, had to wait a lot. Marshall(s) on course would help make more enjoyable. We took advantage of a gift card to make price for us acceptable

Had a great time for my B-day. Course was great, weather was also great. The only problem that we had with the course was lack of restrooms. We had 2 women with us. Nuff said.

nice local course

I have had a number of people recommend this course to me and I see why. It was a really nice course. The fairways were really nice considering the lack of rain. The greens were sticky making it ideal to place wedge shots close.

The staff was really friendly and helpful.

John went out of his way to check in and make sure I had everything I needed.
