About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6500 yards
Slope 127
Rating 71.4

The Chimneys Golf Course features 18 holes of exceptional golf. Our signature feature is the abundance of native rock found on-site, intricately hand-laid throughout the course to accent our greens, fairways, and pedestal tees. With strict attention to detail and no homes in sight, the course plays as a par 72, just shy of 6500 yards over five sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all abilities. Combined with southern, hometown charm, The Chimneys is an experience unlike any public course in north Georgia.

Overpriced

I used to play Chimneys somewhat frequently because it was an affordable option somewhat close to where I live. The greens fees getting as high as $90 is unreasonable. The course is well-maintained but pace of play is extremely poor and there’s no enforcement. The layout is fine but nothing special so I would highly recommend exploring other options unless they decide to get back to the real world with their greens fees

Great course

This course is in great condition. It always has been, they have changed the old front nine to the back nine. Pace of play was on point. It cost about $60 to play Saturday morning which now is the standard price for golf around here.

Slow Play

Don’t plan on booking the 7am tee time and getting a quick round in. Course practice is to let 1-2 groups of staff and friends tee of before you.

Corse vs GN

Course is great. GN can’t keep their app or gift card working!
Don’t purchase a GN gift card.

Bad staff, short course

Fun course but it’s a game of hurry up and wait. The staff was rude and the course is short. A lot of short par 4s. Barely any par 5s or par 3s
