The Great Waters Course at Reynolds Plantation - The 1st Hole
No great golf resort would be quite complete without a Jack Nicklaus signature course. The Great Waters Course is Jack’s contribution to the Reynolds Plantation. Great Waters was completed in 1992 and has been ranked among the "Ten Best New Courses" by GOLF Magazine.
The front nine is typical Nicklaus: tight fairways, lots of bunkers, and undulating greens that are slick, fast and often tough to read. The back nine is spectacular; Jack has made full use of the beautiful Lake Oconee shoreline. Five sets of tees even things out and make play enjoyable for golfers of every level of skill.
