National Honors For Reynolds Plantation Collection of Courses

Posted on Mon, Sep 15, 2008
  
  
  
 
  • Two courses at Reynolds Plantation are ranked among "The Top 100 Courses You Can Play" in the U.S. by GOLF Magazine, with five courses in the Reynolds collection among the best in Georgia. In its annual rankings, GOLF lists Great Waters No. 42 and Oconee No. 58 in the country. The annual "Best Courses Near You" state list ranks Great Waters No. 3, Oconee No. 4, National No. 5, Reynolds Landing No. 11 and the Plantation Course No. 15. Reynolds' other course, the member-only Creek Club, was not eligible for the in-state award.

 

  • LINKS Magazine, in its 20th anniversary issue (July/August 2008), has recognized Reynolds Plantation's Great Waters Course as one of the 10 most significant and influential courses of the past two decades.

 

Built in 1992 by Jack Nicklaus, Great Waters was included for its impact on the value of combining a world-class golf designer with equally spectacular home sites in the real estate business.  Referring to Reynolds' second course on Lake Oconee, LINKS said: "Reynolds soon grew to five courses and the era of the architect as realtor was in full flight."
