Spread across 1,200 acres, one of the best golf communities in Georgia is where you'll find the 2013 Southern Living Custom Builder Showcase home built by Dillard-Jones Builders LLC. The Currahee Club on Lake Hartwell began development in 2003 and is debt free under new ownership. If you're looking for one of the best places to retire Georgia, the list of completed wellness and sports amenities is impressive at one of the first Southern Inspired Communities.

The view from Currahee’s Signature Hole overlooking Lake Hartwell and the Blue Ridge Mountains may steal your breath away. On a clear day, you can see three States from its mountain golf course. The course offers incredible elevation changes and dramatic mountain topography. The Currahee Club has one of the most impressive golf clubhouses we’ve seen in southern inspired communities. Mirroring a Rocky Mountain lodge, the 48,000 square foot golf clubhouse has soaring ceilings, cozy stone fireplaces and elegant dining areas both inside and out.

New amenities include its Sports Club, Fitness, Swim and Amenity Campus. This $2.5 million amenity features a resort-style swimming pool, two tennis courts, fitness center, ball courts, a great lawn, fire pits, and more. On the shores of Lake Hartwell, Currahee Lake Park has a covered community boat dock where you can launch a kayak or canoe.

Property owners are required to become social club members.
