About this course

Augusta Country Club, steeped in the tradition of Southern golf, provides an understated counterpoint to its more famous neighbor. Carved into the gently rolling terrain near the historic Milledge Road corridor, the course evokes a classic, pre-war parkland style. Designed by J. Perry Maxwell in 1927, its undulating fairways and subtly contoured greens present a test of strategy rather than brute force. The course favors shot-shapers and those with a keen eye for judging distance, as many holes feature doglegs and deceptive elevation changes. While avoiding the spotlight of televised championships, Augusta Country Club has served as a host venue for prominent amateur events, solidifying its place within the landscape of competitive golf. The club boasts a membership drawn from Augusta's civic and business leaders, fostering a sense of community and tradition that extends beyond the course itself. While never seeking the global renown of its neighbor, Augusta Country Club holds a unique appeal for those who appreciate classic course design and understated Southern charm. As the Masters Tournament unfolds each spring, many members take pride in their club's role as both a neighbor and a sanctuary from the frenzy that grips the city.

Getting there

Most visitors arrive through Augusta Regional Airport, a compact regional hub just fifteen minutes from the club grounds, though Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International - roughly two and a half hours west - serves as the primary gateway for those traveling from afar. The drive from Atlanta traces I-20 eastward across Georgia's piedmont plateau, the terrain gradually flattening as you approach the Savannah River basin and the historic textile city that shares its name with golf's most famous address. Augusta Country Club sits quietly along the river's edge in the city's older residential quarter, a discreet enclave far removed from the azalea-lined theater of its more celebrated neighbor, where arrival feels less like spectacle and more like slipping into a well-kept secret.
