About this course
City Club Marietta, woven into the fabric of downtown Marietta, is more than just a golf course; it's a historical landmark intrinsically linked to the community's identity. The original nine holes, dating back to the mid-20th century, offered a respite and recreational outlet for burgeoning Cobb County. The layout plays with classic parkland sensibilities across gently rolling terrain. This layout favors strategic shot-making over sheer power. Mature trees frame many fairways creating visually appealing corridors that often demand thoughtful club selection. While not exceedingly long, the course features several doglegs and strategically placed bunkers that reward accuracy and course management. The greens, typically small and undulating, can prove a challenge, particularly those perched on elevated ground. Over the years, City Club Marietta has remained a beloved spot. This club embodies a strong local feel. The membership reflects a diverse mix of professionals and families who appreciate the course's accessibility and relaxed atmosphere. The clubhouse, while not extravagant, serves as a central meeting point, further reinforcing the club's community-focused ethos, an enduring facet that elevates City Club Marietta beyond a mere golf facility.

Getting there
The journey to City Club of Marietta begins at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), one of the world's busiest hubs, situated roughly thirty miles south of the club; from there, a straightforward forty-five-minute drive north carries you through Atlanta's northern suburbs and into the quieter precincts of Cobb County, where the urban sprawl gradually yields to tree-lined streets and the genteel character of historic Marietta. For those arriving by private aircraft, Fulton County Airport (FUL) or Peachtree DeKalb Airport (PDK) provide convenient alternatives within twenty minutes of the club. The final miles unfold along Marietta's established avenues, lined with mature oaks and the architectural heritage of Georgia's ante-bellum past, before arriving at the club's grounds - a refined sanctuary that feels worlds removed from the metropolitan energy just beyond its gates.
