Troon has been selected to manage Achasta Golf Club, a semi-private club in Dahlonega, Ga.
Achasta Golf Club was recently purchased Legacy Golf Properties, a Kerrville, Texas-based ownership group. Troon will assist with managing club operations, agronomy, retail, food and beverage, as well as sales and marketing for Legacy Golf Properties.
Achasta Golf Club features an 18-hole, Jack Nicklaus Signature design golf course that plays 6,900 yards and to a par of 72. The course is nestled in the North Georgia Mountains and winds around the beautiful Chestatee River. Open since 2000, Achasta has hosted qualifiers for the PGA TOUR’s AT&T Classic and Bell South Classic Open as well as the U.S. Open. An expansive practice facility with a driving range and practice putting green are available for members and guests to enjoy.
“Achasta is breathtaking – nestled in a valley and completely embraced by the mountains of Dahlonega, Georgia, one of the state’s top-rated tourist destinations,” says Troon Vice President of Operations Dana Schultz. “We’re thrilled to partner with the new ownership team and take the experience to a whole new level for members and guests.”
The 10,500 sq. ft. clubhouse is home to The Achasta Grille, a full-service restaurant that is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the club’s event space that is capable of hosting weddings and events of up to 250 guests. In addition to golf, Achasta Golf Club members enjoy amenities such as two tennis courts, six pickleball courts, and a resort-style pool.
