About this course

Lafayette Municipal Golf Course sits in the northwest Georgia city of Lafayette, the seat of Walker County near the Tennessee border. Designed by Arthur Davis, the course serves as the town's public facility and reflects the straightforward municipal golf tradition common to smaller Southern communities in the mid-20th century. The layout occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Ridge and Valley region of the Appalachian foothills. The course features tree-lined fairways with elevation changes that add interest to what is otherwise a modest-length design suited to recreational play. Mature hardwoods and pines frame many holes, and the property's natural contours create strategic considerations for approach shots and club selection off the tee. As a municipal course, Lafayette serves a broad cross-section of local golfers and visitors exploring the area between Chattanooga and the Georgia highlands. The facility maintains the accessible, unpretentious character typical of small-town public golf, where the focus remains on providing affordable play in a pleasant setting rather than championship conditions or tournament pedigree. The course represents a community amenity in a region where golf options are more limited than in Georgia's larger metropolitan areas.

Getting there

Lafayette Golf Course lies in the northwest corner of Georgia, best accessed via Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport in Tennessee, roughly forty-five minutes to the north across the state line. The drive south on US-27 traces the western edge of the Appalachian foothills, where the terrain begins to soften and roll as you descend into the Chattooga River valley. This is quiet, unassuming country - small-town Georgia at its most genuine - and the course emerges along that same modest, welcoming spirit that defines the region itself.
