Rating Snapshot
About
Nestled amongst the gently rolling hills of Rockdale County, Cherokee Run Golf Club lies within the Georgia International Horse Park. Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay designed the course. Occupied for centuries by the Cherokee Indians, dozens of arrowheads were found in the Georgian red clay as the golf course was being built. The beautiful landscape is covered in granite outcroppings, native wetlands, and dense hardwood forests. The towering trees line the fairways and the steep inclines throughout the course provide fast, undulating greens. Water hazards come into play on six holes at Cherokee Run Golf Club and there are nearly 100 strategically placed bunkers. The course's signature hole is the par-3 third. This challenging hole demands an accurate tee shot in order to safely make it past the sand bunkers that border both sides of the fairway.

Hi, u925569123. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Cherokee Run Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Challenging But Worth It
As a gift, I played the more forward Augusta tees.Glad I did. Several holes require both precision and length off the tee. There were a few holes that gave some relief and were shorter, but still required an accurate long iron to take advantage of the shortened hole. The course was in great shape.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Cherokee Run Golf Club.
Greens are stupid strange
Hit 6/9 GIR on front nine and shot a 47. About the weirdest greens I’ve ever seen. The guys I played with were local and said that it gets better if you’ve played the course. I shot a 39 on the back when putting got better

Great track and value
Was very pleased at the layout of this course with much elevation coming into play. Some very reachable par 5’s set you up to score well.
To no fault of the course, the conditions were very dry leading to very large bounces and difficulty holding on greens. To be expected during a dry stretch of the Summer. Greens were firm but in great condition, better grass than most public’s you’ll find in the ATL radius.

Fun Course
I enjoyed my round. Course conditions were good, and the layout is fun to play. Pace was slow on the front due to 2 groups of 3 in front of my twosome. They let us play through on the back, and the pace was great. I will definitely play Cherokee Run again soon!
Hello, dlyoung. Thank you for visiting us at Cherokee Run Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Beautiful Course Challenging Greens
These are some of the most challenging undulating greens in GA. Greens are in amazing shape and roll beautifully. Fairways are lush, and layout is fun. Everything about this course is wonderful.
The only knock are the tee boxes which need work, and some fairway areas (like the flat area about 120 yards from the green on Hole 3) need to be marked as under repair.
Great course and very worth it.

Tough track
Course was in great shape
Greens were fast & very challenging
Fairways 10/10
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Jswank1. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Cherokee Run Golf Club thanks you!
One of my favorite places to play, however this time the pace of play was terrible ( 5.5 hr. round). Nothing was done to speed the slow groups up. one group stopped and got lunch at the turn and the marshall made the group in front of us and us wait for them keep their place in line. We never waited less that 10 minutes on evry tee shot and approach shots.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!

The greens are really hard
I love this course and the conditions are great but be warned. These greens are very fast and quite difficult to read. Not a bad thing at all but your scorecard may look a little different when you play here.

Disappointing
I’ve played this course many times over the years and this is the worse it’s been. Greens were punched earlier in the week but they didn’t tell the golfers. The greens and fairways are being overrun with weeds. Plus we haven’t had rain for days but zero of the sand traps have been racked. Disappointed in the conditions. I hope this is only momentary and not a sign of things to come
