Rabun County Golf Club — Local services in Clayton

A couple weeks back a few business partners of mine decided to play a round of golf at Rabun Co. Golf Club. We usually play at Kingwood when visiting but decided to support a smaller public course. We we're in no hurry so we would stop along the way to relax and take in the scenery of the pretty landscape. We let numerous people play through and did not slow up any other players. On the last hole we were going to video tape a birdie putt with the slow motion camera feature of a cell phone. Not only we're we the only golfers on the 9th hole but, we didn't see any other golfers at all. With that being said I was very surprised when the old guy working in the pro shop stepped outside on the second story balcony and yelled for us to hurry up and putt. I still can't believe how unprofessional that was. Before that rude man opened his mouth we intended to aquire about membership costs for our company's board members.

The last hole gives you a great tee shot as the fairway is about 100 feet below the tee box. Fun little course as I mentioned earlier, I will...

This is a prime example of a little country golf course. What they lack in facalities, they make up for in knowledge of the game, which they will pass on to you, if you ask. I go there when I need to work on my game. The course is somewhat short, but it makes up for it's shortness with some great layouts. It is great to help getting your game in shape for tournaments. The ONLY drawback is it is only nine holes, but they have different sets of tees to address this problem. They are in the process of building new facilities. The only reason they get four stars, is because it is...
