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.

I love Cherokee
Finally a day less than 90•. Course in good shape even with the hot And dry conditions.
Pace of play was a little slow.
Probably the fastest greens I’ve played all year and that includes fire Dubai and east lake. Get ready.
One of my top 3 public courses in Atlanta area. Too bad you aren’t in buckhead- atl.

Fun and worth every penny!
Fairways, fairways and more glorious fairways. It was like having the ball teed up every time you get that sweet FIR! Greens are undulating with plenty of challenging pin selections. Tee boxes were adequate with many tee length options. A few blind tee shots here and there and a couple of wonky par 5’s, that you most likely won’t be reaching in two very often but lots of fun holes to play.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round, James! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Awesome Course!
Andy and the guys do a Great job keeping the place up. Top notch course. Worth the money. Really good lunch there. We go eat on Sunday after church sometimes. Cool seeing where the 1996 Cross Country Olympics were held here. Jumps and obstacles are still there. You will have a Great time.

Beautiful Course
Loved the course and layout. Course was in excellent shape but greens were a little slow and fuzzy. The cart GPS system was more annoying than helpful with all the adds and driving restrictions may need tuned a little. Will definitely come back to play again.
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.
Great course
Staff was awesome, Great practice facility, greens were probably aerated and sanded within the past few months but were in good shape. Great layout except the one par 5 that you have to go short, long, short but that is just my opinion. Overall great experience and worth the money!
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Cherokee Run Golf Club.
Greens are smoothing out from aeration!!
Another 2 weeks and greens should be near normal!!

Never go wrong with Cherokee Run!!!!!!
Even with the greens punched, this course is a great place to play. Very well kept and even though the greens were a week in from being aired, I still saw the greens roll well for the condition. Love this layout and it was a tough day playing the blues. It gave me all I could handle at 6550 yds. The cart entering certain restricted areas was a bummer when it happened but everything else was AWESOME
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
