About this course

Bridge Mill Athletic Club occupies rolling terrain in Canton, Georgia, roughly thirty miles north of Atlanta in Cherokee County. The course was designed through a collaboration between Larry Mize, the Augusta native and 1987 Masters champion, and Desmond Muirhead, the British-born architect known for his imaginative and sometimes unconventional design work during the 1970s and 1980s. This pairing brought together Mize's competitive playing experience and understanding of shot values with Muirhead's distinctive approach to golf course architecture. The layout moves through wooded property characteristic of the Georgia Piedmont, with elevation changes and natural corridors framing the holes. The routing takes advantage of the site's topography to create variety in hole presentation and strategic interest. Water features appear on several holes, integrated into the design in ways that reflect both Muirhead's creative tendencies and the practical demands of championship-caliber golf. Bridge Mill functions as a private club serving the Canton area and northern Atlanta suburbs. The facility includes amenities beyond golf, reflecting its athletic club designation, and caters to families and members seeking a range of recreational options. The course provides a playing experience shaped by the design philosophies of both architects, blending tournament-tested shot requirements with creative visual and strategic elements that distinguish it within the region's competitive private club market.

Getting there

# Getting There

Bridge Mill Athletic Club sits in the rolling foothills north of Atlanta, accessible via Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) - one of the world's busiest hubs, located roughly 45 minutes south - or the closer Fulton County Airport (FUL) for those arriving by private aircraft. From ATL, the drive north traces the familiar suburban corridors of greater Atlanta before the landscape gradually softens into the gentler terrain of Cherokee County, where the urban sprawl yields to tree-lined roads and the first hints of Georgia's northern piedmont. The final miles wind through the quiet residential enclaves surrounding Canton, arriving at Bridge Mill Athletic Club with the understated elegance of a private sanctuary designed for those who value both proximity to the city and the tranquility of an established golf community.
