A truly great golf course is not fazed by the years of wear and tear to come. Rather, it would delight in the glory of the days to come, as it watches itself rise to becoming better and better with each passing year. This is how it becomes a classic. And it takes a true genius to build one. This is what Arnold Palmer’s Eagle Watch Golf Club is becoming. It is more than a course, more than a golf vacation destination. It is a legend waiting to unfold.

21 years since it opened is merely a number. Like an elegant lady aging gracefully, Eagle Watch Golf Club in Woodstock, GA is becoming more beautiful through the years. Arnold Palmer did a great job in transforming the Georgia forest into a golfer’s paradise. The golf vacation favorite features tree lined fairways and several man-made ponds that make the course both beautiful and fun – not to mention, challenging. The course’s 18 holes winds through a valley, its 18-holes is spread across 6.896 yards of golf. Four sets of tees give the course a variation that’s perfect for golfers of different skill levels.

The par-72 Eagle Watch Golf Club is truly on its way to becoming Georgia’s best golf courses of all time. It receives a lot of praise and love from regular locals and visiting golf trip aficionados alike for being what it is. 21 years has passed, and it’s become more beautiful. And 21 or even more years to come, one could only imagine how much more beautiful it could be. It’s a timeless beauty, and it will reign supreme among the supreme golf course of Georgia.

First impressions always last. This is what the Braelinn Golf Club in Peach Tree City, Atlanta is known to be good at. Right from its very first hole, this golf vacation destination proves to be a total stunner. From the first moment that the golfer sets foot in this championship golf facility, to the very first swing – a first hole, first round and first visit here will never be enough.

The Braelinn Golf Club is a design that resulted from the collaboration of designers Joe Lee and Rocky Roquemore. The 18-hole, par-72 golf vacation favorite stretches to 6,815 yards of golf from the back tees. Right at the opening hole, golfers will be challenged by a killer dogleg of a par-5. The succeeding holes won’t be any easier; thankfully though, the sights of the beautiful treelined fairways will be enticing enough to make one forget the difficult shots.

But this golf course proves to be more than first impressions. It completes the package for the authentic Georgia golf trip. Right through the well manicured greens and picturesque water features of the Braelinn Golf Club, the finishing hole leaves just enough fun and challenge to immortalize the course’s name in every golfer’s memory. The 18^th hole, a par-4, is bound by water in the right and may get the shot out of bounds on the left – getting the golfers to keep a close call on this closing hole. The best part about Braelinn is the complete lineup of elegant amenities – from the golf practice facilities to the elegant club house. It doesn’t just leave a good first impression. It lives up to this good impression ALL THROUGHOUT.

Beauty and sports may be two very different things and putting them together seems like and impossible thought. But there is one place where this can be proven wrong: Heritage Highlands Dove Mountain Golf and Country Club! The place is one of the premier active adult communities in the southwest. While in this golf club, every guest would experience just how delectable a taste Mother Nature has when it comes to beauty, and just by how unbelievably better it becomes when given just the right amount of human intervention. Only a golf trip headed this way can prove all this.

The mood of Heritage Highlands at Dove Mountain Golf & Country Club switches along with the long shadows of sunrise and the ever changing color hues of the desert sky during sunsets. It is home to the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship. And if that is not enough a merit yet, this championship course is home to the World Golf Championships too. The Heritage Highlands golf course winds throughout the active adult enclave in Dove Mountain. The Arthur Hills designed course combines the lush green landscaping contrast to the desert vistas of the surrounding mountains. Nature- and golf-lovers alike would all too easily fall in love with this golf vacation favorite.

There is nothing more to ask for in this golf course. It has a charming, attractive quality close to that of nature that keeps guests coming back. Either for golf, or just a leisurely recreation, Heritage Highlands at Dove Mountain Golf & Country Club brings out the best in nature and sport that any golf vacation destination could ever offer.

For the purists and tradition-loving golfers, the Sonoran Course of the Tucson National Golf Club pales in comparison to its sibling Catalina course. The Catalina Course has 50 long glorious years of wonderful history, a favorite competition host and golf vacation destination. The Sonoran Course is a young course, opened in 2005 with quite a few big recognitions to its name. But to the golfer who delights himself in challenges and stepping his game up, the Sonoran Course is paradise. And it’s quite a looker too!

The 18-hole Tom Lehman designed Sonoran Course of the Tucson National Golf Club has wonderful views of the Sonoran desert which could lure golfers into thinking it is a relatively plain and calm desert course. But its 69 huge bunkers, 2 lakes and very dramatic elevation changes are not for the faint of heart. It is one crazy ride of dips and falls and hazards of thick desert bushes. The rolling fairways of this golf trip favorite adds more twist to this already twisted-ly challenging course.

Puritans and radicals may never come to agree on which is better than the two Tucson National courses. But one thing remains undeniable: the Sonoran Course of the Tucson National Golf Club is more than just the usual golf vacation spot. It offers a brand of challenge that’s uniquely its own; it is something both an old-time conventional golfer and the modern golfer would love. Simply said, it is on its way to making a name for itself – the kind that could equal that of its sister course.
