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.

The course doesn’t drain well
Played the day after there were rain showers in the area. Very wet conditions on most fairways. Therefore, it was cart path only, and high drives would plug in the middle of the fairway. Also had issues with gnats on several greens. Would not recommend this course if there was any rain recently. The greens were in good shape, but slow.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Your feedback helps us do better. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly. Thank you for visiting Cherokee Run Golf Club. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Great Course

Awesome greens. Annoying layout.
The greens were in incredible shape for mid winter. Very very fast, made it a fun challenge.
I don’t mind having blind shots, but the runoffs on these fairways were just brutal. You would hit a perfect shot and then not find your ball, or find it in a crap lie at the bottom of a hill. No real reward to hitting fairways off of the tee, you just have to get lucky.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Cherokee Run Golf Club.

Winter Golf is terrible at Cherokee Run
The Course holds are doesn’t drain well in the winter it’s very wet and soggy on a lot of the holes and when you go to hit the ball most of the time you pull up sod or mud As a group we have played a couple of course that isn’t as such on a level as Cherokee Run and the fairways or better and near the green also and we played yesterday and it hasn’t had a lot of rain for it to be in that condition but we love the course in the spring and summer months

Always a fun course
Third time playing at Cherokee. During the warmer weather, there are lots of gnats so beware of that.
The staff members at Cherokee are always friendly and the course conditions are always great albeit the wet conditions that I played in last time.
This is also the course that I hit my first eagle so maybe I am a little biased :-)
Will definitely be back.

One in Mr. Palmer's signature collection, and a must play!
Truly a GEM. Please search and find. This course has everything. Greenspeed would challenge the tour conditions were superior, to some of the higher dollar courses in the area.
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.
Great shape after the storm!
Played the day after a wave of rain came through the area. Called the course the day before and they assured me the course would hold up after the rain…they were right! Of course it was “cart path only,” but there was barely any standing water on that course! You guys take great care of it and thanks!
Thank you for the awesome rating! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another great experience, and thanks for choosing Cherokee Run Golf Club.
