The Cotton Fields Golf Club sits in McDonough, a town southeast of Atlanta in Henry County, Georgia. Designed by Jerry Schwendinger and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies former agricultural land that gives the property its name. The routing takes advantage of the gently rolling terrain characteristic of this part of the Georgia Piedmont, with elevation changes that are modest but sufficient to create visual interest and strategic variety across the layout. Schwendinger, who worked on numerous courses in the Southeast during the 1990s and early 2000s, typically favored playable designs that balanced challenge for skilled players with accessibility for recreational golfers. The Cotton Fields reflects this approach, with fairways that offer reasonable landing areas while incorporating water hazards and bunkering that require thoughtful club selection and course management. The property includes stands of mature hardwoods and pines that frame holes and define playing corridors. The course serves as a semi-private facility, welcoming both members and daily-fee play. It operates within the competitive golf market of the greater Atlanta area, where numerous public-access courses vie for rounds from the region's substantial golfing population. The layout provides a straightforward test of golf without extreme length or severe hazards, making it suitable for a range of skill levels while maintaining enough strategic interest to reward local knowledge and careful play.
