Jack Nicklaus designed Great Waters in 1992 as part of the Reynolds Plantation development on the shores of Lake Oconee, and the layout has earned a devoted following ever since. Several holes play directly along the water's edge, with the back nine in particular offering dramatic lake exposures that reward bold shot-making and punish anything leaked to the right. It remains one of the more celebrated resort courses in the Georgia interior, frequently appearing on state and regional best-of lists.
Eatonton sits in Putnam County, about 75 miles southeast of Atlanta in the gently rolling Piedmont. Lake Oconee — one of Georgia Power's reservoir lakes — defines the landscape here, and the property has grown into one of the Southeast's more complete golf destinations, with multiple courses sharing the same grounds. Warm-season Bermuda fairways and firm, fast conditions are the norm through the long Southern summer.
Great Waters plays as a premium resort experience, and the lakeside setting means conditions and scenery shift noticeably with the seasons. Fall afternoons, when the hardwoods along the shoreline turn and the lake catches the low light, offer some of the more memorable golf the Georgia Piedmont has to offer.
