Nestled on Lake Oconee, one of the top golf resorts near Atlanta, Reynolds Plantation, is a breath of fresh air for retirees beginning their new lives. Originally the area was a hunting and fishing territory more than 100 years ago. Now, Reynolds Plantation has evolved into a friendly 2,300 home neighborhood and an expected 4,000-5,500 homes will complete the community. With six 18-hole championship Lake Oconee golf courses, five golf clubhouses, 38,000 sq. ft state-of-the-art fitness center, six swimming pools and active social clubs at Reynolds Plantation, it is no surprise that happiness lingers longer in this community.

On April 3, 2014, The Nationals golf course designed by Tom Fazio re-opened for play. Over the past nine months, the course has undergone an extensive program of upgrades, fixes, and replanting. All putting greens were converted from bent grass to Champion Dwarf Bermudagrass, and every green collar improved. 

Happiness is key to living a long and healthy life, and Reynolds Plantation is on a mission to support this cause. The lake community launched the Linger Longer Living cultural lifestyle series to residents interested in broadening their horizons. While the social clubs at Reynolds Plantation schedule activities year round, this series features artistic exhibits, entertaining performances, educating opportunities which happen only once in a lifetime. Baby Boomers interested in the best places to retire on a lake, can learn a thing or two if they choose to live the good life at Reynolds Plantation.

The Linger Longer Living Series has even more events to enjoy in the next few months. Retirees living at Reynold’s Plantation have a full schedule of social events this year, and they take advantage of every lingering moment.
