Currahee Club Reviews

"We bought a stunning lake lot last year in Currahee Club and planned to build in the next 3-5 years. However, our excitement and desire to not miss a minute at Currahee has made us decide to build this year and commute until we are able to retire. Currahee Club is "peacefulness and serenity" to us and such a needed break from the stresses of Atlanta. It's beauty is truly jaw dropping! The 360 views of the Appalachian mountains and Lake Hartwell are incredible and can be seen throughout the community. The "community feel" and warm and welcoming neighbors made us know - this was where we wanted to settle. Currahee Club offers something very appealing for each one of our 5 grown children and 2 grandbabies and we know we won't have to push much to entice them to return "home" for a weekend! The Clubhouse is by far the most beautiful we have personally been in and the view of the back Veranda is breath taking. Their staff knows our names and warmly welcome us each and every time we visit. We love that there are events throughout the year that we can socialize and meet members or residents to be. Currahee checked every one of our boxes when searching for the perfect Georgia community to settle in. We were not much into golfing but were so in awe of it's remarkable 18 hole Fazio golf course that we bought new clubs and all the attire recently so we can begin playing as much as possible. In short ... Currahee Club stands out to us personally - far above similar surrounding communities - for it's amazing beauty, laid back atmosphere, warm neighbors, and amenities !"

"Showed up without notice to see what Currahee Club was like. Enthusiastically welcomed with warm smiles despite our unannounced visit. We were shown all around the property with samples of homes and lots that were available. A number of people waving and greeting us as we drove around felt genuinely welcoming. Had lunch at Clubhouse where we were greeted by a group of women having lunch. Plenty of smiles and laughter all around. Incredibly friendly welcome with several individuals introducing themselves and welcoming two complete strangers who just happened to be stopping in for lunch. We ended up buying a lot and can't wait to build. In the meantime, we plan to spend a lot of time there playing golf and getting to know the people while our home is built. You can buy or build a home anywhere but the people made it easy to choose to build at Currahee ."
