The Farm Golf Club




About this course
The Farm Golf Club, nestled in the rolling hills near Rocky Face, Georgia, honors the property's agricultural heritage while delivering a stern golfing test. Architect Tom Fazio sculpted a championship layout from the former farmland in the late 1990s, making use of the natural contours and strategic bunkering to create a visually stunning and challenging course. It doesn’t favor a particular shot shape, though navigating the undulating greens requires a deft touch. While The Farm hasn't hosted major professional championships, its membership, culled from nearby Chattanooga and Atlanta, prizes the club’s convivial atmosphere and unpretentious attitude. It stands as a respected, though not nationally heralded, course. The club is known to attract a membership that values both serious golf and a relaxed, down-to-earth experience. A prominent contingent from the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga has long made it their home course. It is said a sizable wager is at stake almost every round played.

Getting there
The journey to The Farm Golf Club begins at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, roughly ninety minutes south of Rocky Face, though Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport in Tennessee offers a closer alternative just thirty minutes to the north. The drive from Atlanta traces I-75 through the gradual rise of the Appalachian foothills, where the urban sprawl gives way to rolling farmland and the first hints of northwest Georgia's rugged topography. As you exit into Whitfield County, the landscape softens into pastureland and wooded ridges, the final approach winding through quiet country roads that feel a world apart from the interstate - a fitting prelude to one of the region's most thoughtfully concealed golf sanctuaries.
