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.

One of the best public courses in the Atlanta area.
The course is in solid condition. The greens and fairways are pretty pure and the bunkers are decent. The only negative was that some of the tee boxes weren't in great shape (lots of sand) but I use a tee every time so it wasn't a big deal for me. If you haven't played there before, I'd recommend going. I like how there aren't any houses to hit outside of the one building on 16 :)

Great Palmer course
I played here on a Friday afternoon with rain in the forecast so it was not crowded at all, but the layout upkeep and difficulty of the putting surfaces made this place awesome. hard to beat playing at your exact pace, feeling like you are the only one out there on a well manicured course.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u880198413! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Cherokee Run Golf Club.
April outing
Course was in rough shape , understanding that early season had been wet . Tee boxes were mostly dirt and pretty chopped up . Fairways were also mostly dirt , greens were fast as putting on red Georgia clay with not much chance of holding .
Ugh!
No grass in fairways or rough T box just dirt, no sand in the bunkers. $125 due to Master’s week (Tuesday) but gave a sleeve of Srixons so …$125 Avoid it. It isn’t being maintained. It’s not just that it’s a difficult spring, if t markers were moved maybe the same spot wouldn’t get ruined. No excuse for no sand in bunker- maintenance needed or fill in and seed grass at least there would be some. Arnold rolling over in his grave. The bones are great maybe with some money and work it will get better. Wish we would have gone somewhere else on the way to Augusta
Terrible shape - I paid $100 (discounted) for this?
Treveled down for the Masters with golf at premier courses on the way. This was NOT one of them. The course conditions were just terrible. Does grass go dormant in Georgia in the winter? Not yet recovered? The tees had no grass on them, there were bare spots all over the fairways and the greens were just awful condition. The course is extremely challenging. Especially the greens. Every putt has a pretty significant break. I don't mind getting beaten up by a tough course. But the course was just in disgustingly bad shape. I play public courses in better shape in PA for half the price.

Hello, ragusar. We appreciate the review. You rated us 3-stars which means there is room to improve on your recent experience at Cherokee Run Golf Club. Let us know, in the comments, how and where you would like to see changes from the course. Thanks for the feedback!
Not worth the money.
Played Masters week. They jacked the prices to $125 per round when a local we played with says he usually pays $50. Most tee boxes were bare. Bunkers were not groomed. Course was not maintained/manicured. The only good about the course was the greens. Rolled true and fast. Not worth the money.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. As you know this is peak season in our region and the prices are set accordingly. We think you will find they are very competitive to the courses in the area. We hope to see you back at Cherokee Run Golf Club
