Cherokee Run Golf Club
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.

Suprising day!
Played this course before and its definitely needs some TLC. Tee boxes need repair. Course was soaked from a storm 3 days ago which was surprising. Does not drain. Cart path only on this course is pretty brutal. Greens in decent shape but seen them better before. Range was closed upon arrival and then open when we finished our round? That was disappointing. Wont be coming back for awhile. Disappointing round.
Love this course
Played at 1250 on Sunday 1/12 after it rained all day the previous day so the course was very saturated but greens were still great. This is my favorite public course around Atlanta. I was able to play in 2 hrs and 37 min and shot 79 and thats after waiting 15 min because my gf waited until we were in the 9th fairway to order food.

The Run
Great course from beginning to end. I was greeted with respect in the pro shop and at the first tee. The course is in excellent condition, it’s challenging and rewarding.
One will have a terrific experience if he plays the course. After the round, visit the 19th hole. Great food and drinks.
Hi, 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 track but always fun to play.
Greens were in excellent condition. Cart path only due to recent rain. Course doesn’t take rain well due to granite underneath and low lying areas. We moved up from the blue tees to the greens (white) because there was no rollout off the tees.

An Arnold Palmer challenger.
Cherokee Run is a course that has lots of rolling hills and will challenge you. If you hit the ball well you can score well but it is very unforgiving for errant shots. It’s a great course and a great value.

nice place
One of my favorite courses. The greens were in great shape and the traps were well conditioned and immaculate.
It is rough around the edges, but I like that they spend their money on the greens and course maintenance
The zoysia fairways are always a treat
