A directory compiled from the USGS Geographic Names Information System catalogs 155 named golf courses and country clubs distributed across 142 cities in 77 Georgia counties. Because GNIS functions as a federal gazetteer of named geographic features rather than a registry of active businesses, the directory represents a partial and dated snapshot of the state's golf landscape.
The listing captures facilities recognized by their official geographic names in the federal system. However, newly built or recently renamed courses may not yet appear in the GNIS database, and the catalog does not include operational details such as public or private status, fee structures, or course layouts. Golfers using this directory to locate facilities by city or county should verify current information—including hours of operation, rates, and availability—directly through each course's official website or contact information before planning a visit.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.

How to use the Georgia directory
Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
