He brought us the renowned Great Waters in 1992. Now, Jack is back at Reynolds Lake Oconee, the club community just east of Atlanta—and his original design is better than ever. Reimagined and revamped by the legend himself, this Nicklaus Signature Course doesn’t just feature 18 holes of championship golf, new strategic elements and wider fairways. It features better, broader, even more breathtaking views of the lake. *Price is per person and varies based on the time of year, number of guests, and accommodation options.
