Pinetree Country Club



About this course
Pinetree Country Club sits in Kennesaw, a suburb northwest of Atlanta in the rolling piedmont terrain of north Georgia. The course was designed by Chick Adams, a regional architect active primarily in the Southeast during the mid-to-late twentieth century. Adams built a reputation for practical, member-friendly layouts that work within natural topography and existing tree cover, and Pinetree reflects that approach with routing that moves through mature hardwoods and pines characteristic of the Georgia landscape. The course occupies gently rolling ground with elevation changes that create variety in stance and approach angles without becoming severe. Fairways typically corridor through established woodland, and greens are modestly contoured with surrounding bunkers that define playing lines. Water comes into play on several holes, a common feature in Georgia courses where natural drainages and small ponds are integrated into the design. The layout offers a straightforward test for members while remaining accessible to a range of skill levels. Pinetree serves as a traditional private country club with a membership drawn from the Kennesaw and greater Cobb County area. The club provides a social and recreational center for families in the community, with golf as the primary amenity alongside typical country club facilities. The course reflects the character of many suburban Atlanta clubs established during the region's growth in the latter half of the twentieth century, offering a tree-lined parkland experience within reach of the city.

Getting there
Pinetree Country Club sits in the rolling foothills northwest of Atlanta, most readily accessed via Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), roughly forty-five minutes south by car through the suburban sprawl that gradually yields to tree-lined residential roads and the quieter northern reaches of Cobb County. Private aviation clients will find Peachtree DeKalb Airport (PDK) a closer alternative, though the club's proximity to Atlanta's major commercial hub makes ATL the natural gateway for most visitors. The final miles wind through Kennesaw's established neighborhoods, where mature pines and manicured grounds signal arrival at this understated but deeply rooted member sanctuary - a place where discretion and tradition have long superseded ostentation.
