Braelinn Golf Club

Braelinn Golf Club in Peachtree City was designed by Joe Lee and opened in 1988 as a par-72 layout measuring 6,815 yards in Fayette County. Lee created a classic Georgia Piedmont course within the Braelinn community, using natural wetland areas and creek corridors to provide strategic interest on the flat to gently rolling terrain.

Braelinn Golf Club in Peachtree City, Georgia opened in 1988 as a private residential golf club in Fayette County, designed through a collaboration between Joe Lee and Rocky Roquemore. The combination of Lee — a veteran Florida architect who had designed courses across the Southeast for more than three decades — and Roquemore, a Georgia-based designer active in the Atlanta market, produced a course that draws from both practitioners' design backgrounds. Joe Lee's contribution to Braelinn brings the naturalistic sensibility he applied throughout his career: routing that integrates the existing terrain and vegetation without relying on excessive earthmoving, and hole designs that present clear strategic options while maintaining playability for the full membership range.

Rocky Roquemore, who later co-designed both Planterra Ridge (1994) and White Oak's Old Course (1986) with different partners, was already establishing his Georgia design practice at the time of the Braelinn commission. The course measures 6,857 yards from the championship tees to a par of 72. Among the features that distinguish Braelinn from other Canongate-managed Atlanta-area courses is its bunkering density — the course has more bunkers than any of the other Canongate properties in the market, creating a layout that rewards accurate iron play and punishes imprecision with recovery shots from sand.

Tree-lined fairways, challenging water features, and the multi-bunker hazard system combine to produce a course that, despite its comfortable distance from the back tees, presents genuine challenge. Peachtree City, the planned community that forms Braelinn's residential context, is one of Georgia's most distinctive suburbs — built with more than 100 miles of paved multi-use paths connecting neighborhoods, commercial areas, and recreational facilities by golf cart. Golf carts are a widely accepted form of transportation throughout the city, and the culture of Peachtree City is unusually intertwined with golf in ways that extend well beyond club membership.

Braelinn is part of the Invited (formerly ClubCorp) network, giving members reciprocal access to other Invited properties across the United States alongside the Lee-Roquemore course in their own community.
