The clever use of five sets of tees means the course can be enjoyed as much by the less able golfer as the professional.

THE CREEK CLUB, the 5th golf course at Reynolds Plantation, opened to members in 2007. The Creek Course is Reynolds Plantation's first-ever member only course, and was designed by 2003 Golf Digest "Architect of the Year" Jim Engh. Featuring Engh's distinctive, rolling bunkers, exclusive Zoysia grass fairways and stunning home sites, The Creek Club continues the legacy of golfing excellence synonymous with the Reynolds name.
THE RICHLAND COURSE is currently under construction. The designer is Pete Dye whose previous works include TPC Sawgrass, Blackwold Run, Ocean Course on Kiawah Island and Harbour Town Links. As a result of his reputation much is expected of the new course.
Although there are many residents the majority of the community is based around vacationers and golf tourists. As a consequence visitors are welcome and golf (except of the members only course) is generally available. Contact resort to make arrangements.
