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 6400 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.

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.

Overpriced

I used to play Chimneys somewhat frequently because it was an affordable option somewhat close to where I live. The greens fees getting as high as $90 is unreasonable. The course is well-maintained but pace of play is extremely poor and there’s no enforcement. The layout is fine but nothing special so I would highly recommend exploring other options unless they decide to get back to the real world with their greens fees

Very Good Course in Rural Setting

Had a great day.. in the area for business and had the day off. Glad I found this course through golf now. Little disappointed there wasn’t a “grill” to grab a bit afterwards, but understandable being course is a bit out in the country. Bev cart person was always near by and clubhouse staff very friendly. Thank you..

Country side Country Club

One of the cooler munis I have played in recent years with two totally different 9s to make up a challenging course. Anyone from north of 285 to Athens would enjoy a nice 18 there.

Green Fees are too High

The course is growing into really nice shape. I fail to understand the recently elevated green fees. Our group plays twice per week so we are exploring other courses in the area. While we enjoy the course and the very friendly staff this course in not worth $55 - $80 for a WEEKDAY !!!

Absolutely insane that they’re charging as much as they’re charging. It’s supposed to be a city course but it costs more than most of the really nice clubs in the area. It’s well-kept but $90 is ridiculous, especially for the five-plus hour rounds you get here

Not a long course but fun and terrific condition.

Great little track at the foothills of the Appalachians. Greens are always great. The Blues are the longest 6K yards I've ever played.

My only concern is there often seem to be players that drop in on hole 10 and slow play. Not terribly but annoying nonetheless.

$100+?????

Management must have lost their minds. It’s a fun little rural course. Better option than the Pines in Winder, but anything over $50 is a stretch. Y’all come to Gainesville and play much better courses that never charge over $65 for a round.

Greens still recovering from aeration.

Like course. Senior friendly. Greens need to heal more from aeration 3+ weeks ago. More sand and water necessary?
