Horseshoe Bend Country Club

Horseshoe Bend Country Club sits in Roswell, Georgia, a northern suburb of Atlanta along the Chattahoochee River corridor. The course was designed by Joe Lee, a prolific architect who worked extensively throughout the southeastern United States during the 1960s and 1970s. Lee, who trained under Dick Wilson, became known for creating playable yet strategic layouts that incorporated natural water features and mature tree corridors typical of the region. The routing takes advantage of rolling piedmont terrain characteristic of north Georgia, with elevation changes that provide variety in stance and shot requirements. The Chattahoochee River influences the property's character, and the course features several holes where water comes into play either directly or as a strategic consideration. Mature hardwoods and pines frame fairways, creating defined playing corridors while also demanding accuracy from the tee on tighter holes. Horseshoe Bend serves as a traditional private country club for the Roswell community, offering a full complement of amenities beyond golf. The course layout reflects Lee's design philosophy of rewarding good shots without excessive punishment, making it suitable for a range of player abilities while still presenting challenges for accomplished golfers. The property benefits from its location in one of Atlanta's established northern suburbs, where golf course development occurred during the region's significant growth period in the latter decades of the twentieth century.
