Spring with Joy at Currahee Club in Northern Georgia

Smiles are contagious in Northern Georgia and we know of two things to blame – Toccoa in Stephens County and the Currahee Club. This region of Georgia is catching the attention of Baby Boomers searching for a variety of cultural activities, superior golfing facilities and continuing education programs for any age near North Georgia gated mountain communities. Last weekend at the Currahee Club, holiday festivities were all centered around the family and included a visit from the Easter Bunny. Property owners enjoyed an old fashioned Easter egg hunt and an elaborate brunch at the clubhouse. This is one of many events that take place year round in the community.

The Currahee Club golf course has been in the spotlight for several years with it’s Tim Fazio architectural appeal, 7,200 yard spread, 18-month golf course enhancement program and much more. The long-range mountain views and challenging terrain makes this Georgia golf course exciting for anyone who wants to excel their skill. Just a few months ago, the Currahee Club golf course earned 42nd place in Golfweek Magazine’s List of “Best-Residential” golf courses in America. The golf course moved up 20 spots from the previous years and proudly represented the Currahee Club and the surrounding North Georgia gated mountain communities.

Last year, the Currahee Club received the international honor as one of “Rolex’s World’s Top 1000 Golf Courses.” The news was published by the D’Algue Selection in Paris, France and the residents of Toccoa-Stephens County were celebrating with pride. Out of the 32,000 golf courses in the world and 15,000 located within the United States, the Currahee Club won a spot on the list that every gated golf community desires. Owners of Lake Hartwell homes and residents of the Currahee Club were ecstatic about the award, but not surprised that Georgia’s best golf course earned such a coveted title.
