The Golf Club at Cuscowilla in Eatonton
The Golf Club at Cuscowilla in Eatonton, Ga., is a beautifully designed golf course that's a lovely walk in the park, amongst the indigenous flora and fauna, through the wild grasses blowing in the breeze, under tall pines and with plenty of glimpses of Lake Oconee.
Located some 50 miles south of Athens, the Golf Club at Cuscowilla is a lovely setting that's only enhanced by one superbly crafted golf hole followed by another.
There are some forced carries that are tough but not overly daunting. Just hit your natural drive, and you should make it over. There are uphill and downhill tee shots, rolling and tilting fairways and enough risk/reward doglegs to make you feel like a Wild West card sharp.
The excellent bentgrass greens are an extension of their philosophy. First of all, they are in pristine condition, as is the rest of the course. They are nicely contoured, with excellent slope and undulation, and fairly quick.
