Butternut Creek Golf Course sits in the north Georgia mountains near Blairsville, where the fairways follow the natural contours of the valley and the Little Tennessee River. The layout incorporates elevation changes that require careful club selection, particularly on several downhill approaches and a few uphill par-3s. Mature hardwoods line many fairways, creating a shaded environment that changes texture with the seasons. The course routing uses the existing terrain rather than extensive earth-moving, so the holes bend around existing slopes and drainage features. Water comes into play on several holes, including a creek that crosses multiple fairways at angles that punish pulled or pushed shots. The greens are built to USGA specifications with bentgrass surfaces that hold approach shots but can run firm in dry periods. Cart paths follow the original logging roads that once crossed the property, and the practice facility sits on a separate parcel across the road from the first tee.
