South Course
Atlanta, GA, USA





South at Cherokee Town & Country Club is where Atlanta's power brokers have brokered deals and tested their mettle since its inception. Carved into the rolling hills of Sandy Springs, the course embodies a classic, parkland style with mature hardwoods framing undulating fairways. The original design, while perhaps not nationally lauded, presents a strategic challenge accentuated by subtle breaks and well-guarded greens. It is a course of second shots and course management more than raw power. Renovations over the years have honored the original intent, adding length and modernizing green complexes. While the course hasn’t played host to major championships, its members, influential figures in Atlanta's business and political circles, ensure a lively competitive calendar and a unique atmosphere of camaraderie. The membership at Cherokee is known to be deeply rooted in tradition. While not particularly known for a specific clubhouse delicacy, you'll often find members debating local politics or sealing deals in the grill room after a round.
