Athens Country Club
The golf : Athens Country Club is an 18-hole,
semi-private course that dates back to the 1930s. On this short
course (5,873 from the tips), you’ll have the chance to hit
short irons into every par 3, and have birdie opportunities at all
four par 5s that play well under 500 yards. The front nine allows
more room for wild tee shots, as it’s more wide-open than
the back. The feature hole is No. 13, a 427-yard par 4 highlighted
by a blind approach shot to the green.
