1The 1st hole is a challenging 421 yard par 4.

Par is a good score to start your round.2The 2nd hole is a modest 359 yard par 4. Players must put this ball in play from the tee.A tee ball lost to the right can find the hazard that stretches the length of the right side of the hole. Also, a tee ball too far left can find a fairway bunker or be lost in the 3The 3rd hole is a demanding 183 yard par 3. The green is guarded by water short and has severe slopes left and long.This green must be respected for its speed. A good tee shot in the center of the green can still result in a three putt bogey. A good par keeps the momentum going in your round on 4The 4th hole is a reachable 501 yard par 5. A long tee ball will allow for a go for the green in two.The Chestatee River comes into play for the first time in the round as it has to be carried to reach the green.5The 5th hole is a scenic 173 yard par 3 that looks up the river from the tee box. This hole is on an island in the Chestatee River. During the gold rush days, the river was dredged6The 6th hole is a straight-away 593 yard par 5.The tee box sits in front of the Chestatee River as the golfer again has to carry the river to the fairway. A large fairway bunker on the right side of the hole is in the landing aTwo good shots will lead to a short iron to an undulating green. Three putts can cause a bogey due to the long rolling green.7The 7th hole is a tough 439 yard par 4. The Chestatee River runs the length of the right side of this hole while the largest bunker on the course comes into play on the left side bThe approach shot will hold the green with as much loft as possible due to the green sloping away from the fairway.This is a large green and requires good distance control on the longer putts.8The 8th hole is an unassuming 379 yard par 4. This hole is short but must be played accurately as yet againNicklaus positioned a fairway bunker perfect for the tee shot missed to the right. The tee shot missed to the left however, can find the pond that is located on the left side. A go9The 9th hole is a solid 422 yard par 4. The Chestatee River flows down the left side of this hole and demands a good tee shot to ensure a mid iron to the green.Two fairway bunkers through the fairway are a good aiming point, but be careful of hitting it too far into the bunkers. Again the golfer has to cross the Chestatee River to reach tAll golfers cross the river on one of five beautiful bridges on their way to the green. Par is a good score to make the turn to the back nine.10The 11th hole is the longest of the four par threes at Achasta.Playing over 200 yards and very little room for error to the left as the river comes into play on any tee shot missed to the left. The left side of the green is guarded by a bunker11The 11th hole is the longest of the four par threes at Achasta.

The putting green is fairly flat so most putts on this green are a green light.13The 13th hole starts the birdie run at Achasta.This reachable par 4 is one of the most exciting risk/reward holes in North Georgia. Playing 285 yards to the center of the green, this hole is guarded by the largest greenside bunThe putting surface is the best defense for this modest par 4. Be aware of the large sloping green that makes putting very difficult.14The 14th hole continues the run of possible birdies on the back nine.This is straightest and easiest tee shot on the back nine but be aware of the large bunkers on both the left and right side of the putting green. This putting surface looks very taThis is straightest and easiest tee shot on the back nine but be aware of the large bunkers on both the left and right side of the putting green. This putting surface looks very ta15The 15th hole plays much longer than the 535 yards that the scorecard says.The fairway is guarded by a large bunker on the right side and the Chestatee River along the left. Once you have conquered the tee shot you now have a decision to make. Long hitters can go for this green in two but if you have to lay up, it’s decision time. The Chestatee River cuts across the lay up zone, forcing a long high three wood or a sh16The 16th hole is a classic par 4.There are two large bunkers on each side of the fairway that makes an accurate tee shot a must.The green is raised slightly so make sure you add one more club as this green is heavily guarded by greenside bunkers both short and left of the green.17The 17th hole is a modest par three. Playing as the shortest of the four par threes at Achasta.The green is slightly downhill but is protected by two bunkers, one on the left and one short right that are sure to catch any misfired shots at the green. The putting surface has 18The 18th hole is one of the best finishing holes around.This long par 4 typically plays into the wind and requires a long and accurate tee shot.
