Private club terrain on a public routing. The Highlands Course opens its gates to outside play, which means you can walk the same Georgia Piedmont ground that hosted major championships. Rolling hills throughout. Not brutal, but steady. The kind of elevation that reminds your legs this is real golf, not a flat Florida stroll. Cart culture runs deep in Atlanta, so expect some looks when you request to walk. Request anyway. The course rewards it. Firm conditions, strategic bunkering, and enough length to test your full bag. At this price point, you are paying for pedigree. The walk justifies the fee if championship layouts matter more to you than casual convenience. Highlands delivers on that front.
