Club at Jones Creek

Jones Creek is a Rees Jones design located in Evans, Georgia, a suburb of Augusta in the state's east-central region. The course opened in the early 2000s as the centerpiece of a residential community, bringing Jones's architectural approach—characterized by strategic bunkering, generous landing areas, and emphasis on shot values—to the Augusta area. The routing takes advantage of rolling terrain typical of the Georgia Piedmont, with elevation changes that provide natural movement and variety throughout the round. The layout incorporates water features on several holes, with Jones Creek itself influencing play on multiple occasions. Jones, known for his course restoration work and for designing tournament-caliber layouts, created a course that balances challenge for accomplished players with playability from forward tees. The design features multiple tee boxes on each hole, allowing the course to adapt to different skill levels while maintaining strategic interest. The Club at Jones Creek operates as a private facility serving the Evans and greater Augusta community. Its location near Augusta National Golf Club means the area's golf culture is shaped by the Masters Tournament each spring, though Jones Creek itself functions primarily as a membership club for local residents. The course provides a year-round playing option in a region where mild winters allow for extended golf seasons, and the design reflects Jones's preference for courses that reward accuracy and course management over pure distance.
