About this course

Eighteen at River Pines Golf Club, carved into the rolling hills of Johns Creek, stands as a testament to Southern golf's enduring appeal. The layout, a classic parkland design, unfolds through stands of mature pines and alongside the meandering Chattahoochee River, a constant presence that tests strategic decision-making. Length isn’t the primary defense; instead, subtly contoured greens and cleverly placed bunkers reward thoughtful approaches. Originally designed by Arthur Hills, the course has evolved over the years, retaining its playability while incorporating modern agronomic practices. The fairways, generous in width, invite aggressive play off the tee, yet demand precision into the greens where subtle breaks and undulations will test even the most confident putter. Eighteen at River Pines doesn’t boast a national championship pedigree, but it is a well loved course in the North Atlanta area. River Pines is more than a golf club; it is a hub of activity where you can find golfers of all types and skill level enjoying the atmosphere of the club. Members can be seen congregating on the patio after their rounds, enjoying the camaraderie and food that are part of this Atlanta golf community.

Getting there

River Pines Golf Club is most readily accessed via Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), one of the world's busiest hubs, situated roughly thirty miles southwest of the club; the drive north through Atlanta's northern suburbs typically takes forty-five minutes to an hour, depending on traffic patterns. For those arriving by private aircraft, Peachtree DeKalb Airport (PDK) and Fulton County Airport (FUL) both lie within twenty minutes of Johns Creek, offering a more discreet entry point into the Georgia Piedmont. The final approach winds through the affluent, tree-lined neighborhoods of north Atlanta's Fulton County, where the landscape transitions from suburban thoroughfares into the rolling, wooded terrain that frames River Pines Golf Club - a sanctuary of manicured fairways and native Georgia pines set deliberately apart from the metropolitan bustle below.
