Elberton, GA

Arrowhead Pointe Golf Course sits on a peninsula within Richard B. Russell State Park near Elberton, with ten of its eighteen holes running along Lake Richard B. Russell. Designed by Bob Walker and opened in 2001, the par-72 layout stretches to roughly 6,800 yards over rolling terrain in the Northeast Georgia foothills. Bermuda fairways and TifEagle greens hold up well through the season, and the state-park setting keeps the course free of surrounding homes or development. It is a public facility operated through Georgia's state parks system, pairing lake scenery with a modest green fee.

Destin, FL

Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club is an 18-hole course in Destin, Florida, part of a residential community along Choctawhatchee Bay. It was designed by Robert C. Walker, a former lead designer for Arnold Palmer's design firm, with the community concept dating to the mid-1990s and the course opening for play in the late 1990s. The par-72 layout runs just under 6,900 yards from the back tees and winds through nature preserves and wetlands near the bay, with water features and strategic bunkering on many holes. Fairways are generally generous, giving golfers of varying abilities room to play, while greens and hazard placement add a fair test for stronger players. The course is open to the public alongside a golf academy, clubhouse, and a restaurant overlooking the layout.
