About this course

Sunset Hills at Sunset Hills Country Club stands as a testament to enduring community spirit, a place where generations of Carrollton families have learned the game. This classic, mid-century design offers a straightforward parkland experience, rewarding solid ball-striking rather than strategic gambles. Its gently rolling terrain and mature trees create a pleasant, if not overly demanding, round. Originally conceived in the late 1960s, Sunset Hills provides a comfortable test for players of all abilities. While the course has seen subtle tweaks over the years, its core character remains largely unchanged. A few strategically placed bunkers penalize errant drives, and the small, subtly sloped greens require a deft touch with the putter. Beyond the golf, Sunset Hills cultivates a notably convivial atmosphere. The club’s social calendar is as active as its tee sheet, with regular events centered around the clubhouse's impressive barbeque, a local favorite rivaling even the best Georgia pit stops. It's a community hub as much as a golf destination, a characteristic cherished by its loyal membership.

Getting there

Sunset Hills Country Club sits in the rolling piedmont of northwest Georgia, most readily accessed via Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL), roughly ninety minutes to the south - a straightforward drive northwest through the suburban sprawl that gradually yields to the gentler topography surrounding Carrollton. For those arriving by private aircraft, the nearby Carrollton-Bowman Field (CRJ) offers convenient proximity, though many members and guests opt for the broader facilities at Atlanta's Peachtree DeKalb Airport (PDK) on the city's north side. The final leg of the journey traces quiet country roads through Carroll County's pastoral landscape, where the terrain begins its subtle rise toward the foothills, before arriving at Sunset Hills - a welcoming sanctuary of manicured fairways and Southern hospitality set apart from the bustle of the metropolitan corridor.
