Cottonfields Golf Course sits on the former site of a working cotton plantation in McDonough, Georgia, where fairways now occupy the level terraces that once held rows of the crop. The course retains the original field boundaries as a grid of drainage ditches and low berms, and several tee boxes are placed on the slight rises that were once loading ramps for cotton wagons. Mature pecan trees line the cart paths, their trunks spaced at the intervals used for mechanical harvesting, while scattered stone foundations mark the locations of former gin houses. Bermuda grass covers the playing surfaces, chosen because it tolerates both the clay-heavy soil and the frequent summer irrigation drawn from the adjacent Big Cotton Indian Creek. The routing moves from open stretches across the old fields into pockets of pine where the land drops toward the creek, then returns across the terraces.
