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.

Having a men’s group scramble that then plays in between other tee times doesn’t work. Sat on the 9th tee for almost twenty minutes, four groups waiting at one point. No Marshall’s anywhere to be seen!

Course looking in great shape for the new season. Greens were much slower than usual. Pace of play wasn’t good but that’s because there was a tournament ahead of us.

Greens were in smooth and in superb condition on this day and the fairways are really greening up nicely. A few of the tee boxes had grass MIA, but overall, the golfing experience at this course was splendid and looking forward to a returning in the near future.

Disappointing greens

The greens were fuzzy and slow. Had divot scars everywhere. Greens are why we go. Get them in shape and take care of them.

Great Layout and Greens

I played Cherokee run for the first time on 3/15/2021. This course is awesome! Great greens, nice layout, tough holes and a great clubhouse. A few of the tee boxes were a little rough, however, the amazing greens made up for every bit of that. This course is challenging, I played it from the tips at a rating of 75.1, or somewhere along those lines. The greens are very undulated, nice and fast. Bunkers were in great shape too, nicely raked in the morning before play. With no rakes, I am not sure what it was like by the end of the day, but it was prepped very well in the morning before the round. Overall, this course is a must play, especially for the price. I've played some courses that cost more that aren't nearly as fun. All of the holes are challenging, and different. Thank you Cherokee Run, I will be back. In fact, I already made a tee time for our group on Sunday 3/21/21. Looking forward to it.
