The National golf course at Reynolds Plantation in Greensboro
GREENSBORO, Ga. - There is a lot of dazzle over the 27 holes that make up the National golf course at Reynolds Plantation. Between the views, dramatic landscaping and Tom Fazio's signature bunkers that are a form of modern art, it's sometimes difficult to keep your head in the game. That's okay, though. It's a course that is to be enjoyed and not taken too seriously.
No matter which nine you play, the Ridge, Bluff or Cove, they all have the same style. You might find you want to play all 27 though, because in this case, 18 holes might not be a satisfactory helping of Fazio golf or romping through the hills beside Lake Oconee.
