Reynolds Plantation’s Oconee Course spreads across rolling, former farmland terrain south of Lake Oconee. Designed by Rees Jones and opened in 2002, it threads through pine-covered ridges and marshy lowlands that drain into the lake’s inlets. Several fairways follow the natural drainage swales while others climb onto elevated plateaus, producing pronounced changes in elevation that affect both club selection and shot shape. Native wiregrass and sand waste areas frame many landing zones, keeping the rough tight and penal. The 13th hole plays along a slender peninsula where wind off the water can alter trajectories on approach shots. Irrigation is drawn from the lake, ensuring firm, fast greens even in summer. The course’s cart paths stay largely out of sight, preserving the visual continuity of the landscape between holes.
