Phone: 706-639-1580
Superintendent: Rick Campbell
New club house was built in 2008
LaFayette Golf Course is on the south side of the city. From South
Main, take Foster Mill Drive, turn right on Gasque Drive and right
on Fred Henry Drive.
The
original nine holes were built in the 1930s. An additional 10
holes were constructed in 1992 and were designed by Arthur Davis.
The par
72 course features bent grass greens and hybrid bermuda grass
fairways and rough. Four sets of tees allow players of all
abilities to enjoy its wonderful layout. There are many challenging
holes to test players' skill as they play one of North Georgia's
most beautiful courses.
Autumn
is one of the most beautiful times as the course is surrounded by
mountains displaying their fall foliage.
The
course is a true challenge of golf. The front, or "original,"
side is relatively short but requires accuracy both off the tee and
in the approach shot into small greens. A few bunkers are
strategically placed on just a few holes.
The
back, or "new," side is longer, but grass bunkers, mounds and
out-of-bounds place a premium on club selection and strategy.
The
course has a grill, serving breakfast and lunch, and a pro shop to
fill golfers' needs and to take reservations.
The pro
shop can be contacted at (706) 639-1580 from 7:30 a.m. until dark
Tuesday through Sunday and from 11:30 a.m. until dark on Mondays.
