About this course
Peachtree Golf Club stands as a monument to Bobby Jones' vision, a sanctuary conceived after his Grand Slam triumph to foster camaraderie among golf's elite and the city's business titans. Nestled in the heart of Buckhead, this relatively flat parkland course unfolds through a dense canopy of mature hardwoods and towering pines, its subtle contours designed to challenge rather than overpower. A traditional course that meanders through Georgia's oldest, wealthiest neighborhood, it's a course where a gentle fade off the tee will set you up best, even if the greens run fast and true. Robert Trent Jones Sr. brought Jones' dream to life in 1948, sculpting a layout that emphasizes strategic play and precision over brute force. Joe Jemsek, the golf professional known for his role in desegregating Atlanta's golf courses, served as its first pro. A later thoughtful renovation by Rees Jones ensured its playability for the modern game without sacrificing the original intent. Beyond the course, Peachtree fosters a discreet, tightly-knit membership β a blend of Atlanta's most influential figures and a sprinkling of golf aficionados drawn by the club's storied past. It is the kind of place where the quality of the company is as prized as the quality of the golf. While it may not host the mega-tournaments often seen elsewhere, its prestige within golf's inner circles remains firmly intact.

Getting there
Most visitors to Peachtree Golf Club arrive through Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL), the world's busiest airport and a convenient gateway just twenty minutes south of the club's gates in the city's prestigious Buckhead corridor. Private aviation guests often favor DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK), a discreet executive field positioned even closer to the north. The drive from either point traces Atlanta's leafy residential arteries, where the urban hum gradually yields to the hushed, tree-canopied streets of one of American golf's most storied and closely held sanctuaries.
