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.

Great track!

This was my first time playing Cherokee run. Had a great time! Course was challenging, yet fair. Best greens I have played on since moving to the Metro Atlanta area! The only thing I could suggest that would need improvement would be a few of the tea boxes. Other than that, worth the greens fee, and I will definitely be back to play it again!

Great track!

This was my first round at Cherokee Run. Greens were the best and fastest I have played in metro Atlanta. Very challenging! Layout made you play all shots. The only area I saw to improve were a few of the tee boxes. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall, enjoyable round and will be playing this course again! Would highly recommend it!

Superb!

What a fantastic golf course. Very challenging layout but has great mix of easy & tricky holes. Plenty of risk vs reward holes on offer. Greens and fairways in immaculate condition, greens were running fairly fast but manageable. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic value for money imo

Great Course, Fast Greens

Nice layout that forces you to play conservative often. Greens we pretty fast and the balls roll out quite a bit.

Outstanding “Hidden” Gem

Depends where you’re from but I came down from Atlanta and wow was I surprised. I was trying to meet a friend halfway at a decent golf course and came across this one. I started reading the reviews and got excited. This place is amazing. The greens are fast and the layout is amazing. Missing fairways is punishing as the rough is very tough and plenty of holes to miss big and go OB. Overall, incredible and I recommend you play here.
