Cove/Ridge at Reynolds Plantation - National

Reynolds Plantation, now known as Reynolds Lake Oconee, encompasses multiple courses along the shores of Lake Oconee in central Georgia. Tom Fazio designed two eighteen-hole layouts for the property: The National course, which opened in the late 1990s, and The Oconee course. The Cove and Ridge nines form part of this multi-course facility, with Fazio's design work emphasizing integration with the lakeside terrain and rolling piedmont topography characteristic of the region.

Fazio's approach at Reynolds typically involves shaping fairways through wooded corridors and incorporating elevation changes that take advantage of views toward Lake Oconee. The routing moves through mature hardwoods and pines, with several holes playing along or near the water's edge. Greens are characteristically contoured with strategic bunkering, and the design allows for multiple tee positions to accommodate different skill levels. The property's scale and natural setting provide variety in hole character, from tree-lined inland holes to more open lakeside stretches.

Reynolds Lake Oconee operates as a private residential community with multiple clubhouses and amenities supporting its various courses. The facility has hosted collegiate events and amateur competitions, benefiting from its location roughly an hour east of Atlanta. The combination of Fazio's design work and the lakeside setting has made Reynolds a notable destination within Georgia's golf landscape, particularly for those seeking a multi-course resort environment in a residential community context.
