It’s hard to find a property in America with as much variety of golf and other experiences as Reynolds Lake Oconee, which sits conveniently just off the interstate halfway between Atlanta and Augusta, Ga. The six courses are as different and unique as their designers – Jack Nicklaus, Tom Fazio, Rees Jones, Jim Engh, and Bob Cupp. Nicklaus’ Great Waters design is currently undergoing a total renovation, part of a multi-million dollar investment from owner MetLife. Golfers can also hone their skills at the Reynolds Kingdom of Golf presented by TaylorMade, a world-class instructional academy and fitting center, with same-day club constructing, that’s often frequented by Tour pros.
Residents of the 10,000-acre, 2,700-home community live an active life with access to a multitude of other activities, including but hardly limited to tennis, fitness, nature programs, and special-interest clubs. Then there’s Lake Oconee, the state’s second largest lake: Four full-service marinas provide access to the watery playground for boating, jet skiing, and kayaking.

If you’re a fisherman, consider that the 19,000-acre lake is home to some five million bass, bream, and crappie for your angling pleasure. The newly added Sandy Creek Sporting Grounds offers a 20-station clay course along with other shooting challenges and sporting endeavors.
As Reynolds caters more and more to growing families along with active empty-nesters, it has expanded and enhanced kids’ programs, offering summer camps, sports-specific training, and festive holiday fun. There’s also been recent emphasis on the property’s culinary offerings – which now range from traditional club cuisine to exciting modern fare at The National Tavern – and entertainment highlighted by more than 200 evenings of live music throughout the community. Also unique to Reynolds, is a renowned Ritz-Carlton on property with its own dining options as well as a full slate of activities and entertainment that guests and residents are welcome to enjoy. At Reynolds Lake Oconee, once in a lifetime experiences await you every day, whether planning a getaway or something a little more permanent.
