Bentwater Golf Club

Bentwater Golf Club, carved into the rolling hills north of Atlanta, reflects the ambition of the late 20th century golf boom. Its three nines – The Weiskopf, The Palmer, and The Player – provide a diverse playing experience, each showcasing Robert von Hagge and Bruce Devlin’s talent for dramatic mounding and strategic bunkering, hallmarks of the era. Expect generous fairways that belie the challenges awaiting around the greens, where subtle undulations demand thoughtful approach play. While Bentwater hasn't hosted major championships, its membership holds a vibrant internal tournament schedule with passionate play, and the club remains a fixture in the local golfing community. It offers a demanding test for all skill levels, prioritizing shot-making and course management over sheer length – a refreshing counterpoint to the modern trend of brute force. Bentwater, true to its southern roots, embraces a relaxed atmosphere that values camaraderie and good times. The nineteenth hole is a welcoming spot, with members known to engage in post-round story-telling over a round of sweet tea, a nod to the genteel tradition of the area. While never claiming national prominence, Bentwater is a cherished haven for those seeking an enjoyable and challenging round amidst the beauty of north Georgia.
