Dahlonega Golf

Achasta, formerly Birch River Golf Club (Review), Semi-Private, 706-867-7900

The gem of Achasta is the 6,995-yard, par-72 Achasta Golf Course, a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design. Though surrounded by dramatic tree-lined ridges, Nicklaus seamlessly integrated his award-winning creation into the Chestatee River valley, making it relatively flat and thus ideal for walking.

Golfers of all skill levels can enjoy this challenging yet playable masterpiece, with its bent grass greens and manicured fairways that roll gently past picturesque views of the river. The Chestatee plays a major role on approximately half of the holes, as epitomized by the #4 green, #5 hole and #6 tee box, nestled together on a lush island in the middle of the river. Vibrant cultural and entertainment opportunities complement the sporting lifestyle with concerts, excursions, events and performances. Achasta is only minutes from a unique arts and cultural scene in downtown Dahlonega.
