Augusta Country Club occupies a historic tract of land along Rae’s Creek, adjacent to the Augusta National Golf Club. The course was designed by Donald Ross in the 1920s and later altered by George Cobb. Fairways are lined with mature loblolly pines and hardwoods that frame most landing areas and shade several tee boxes. The terrain rises and falls across former farmland, producing subtle elevation changes that affect club selection on several par-4s and par-5s. Ross’s signature bunkering appears in the form of steep-faced, flashed-sand traps guarding greens that slope predominantly from back to front. Water comes into play on five holes, most notably on the par-3 twelfth, where a pond sits directly in front of a narrow, two-tiered green. The club maintains bentgrass greens and Bermuda fairways, with irrigation drawn from Rae’s Creek. A modest clubhouse built in the 1930s overlooks the eighteenth green and houses locker rooms, a pro shop, and a dining room used for member events.
