Greensboro, Ga. (Jan. 17, 2012) – You don’t have to qualify for a major championship to enjoy the experience of playing world-class golf among Georgia’s famed azaleas next spring, since the Reynolds Plantation provides guests with award-winning courses and a taste of its famous Southern lifestyle, combined into the Azalea Package.
The close proximity of Reynolds Plantation to Augusta (only one hour) makes this the perfect home base for golfers – who can take in the tournament action from the gallery and then, perfect their swings on one of five Reynolds Plantation courses, designed by its own “Mount Rushmore” of legendary golf architects: Great Waters (by Jack Nicklaus), The National (by Tom Fazio) and The Oconee (by Rees Jones), as well as The Landing and The Plantation (both designed by Bob Cupp). Home base is your own “Butler Cabin” – a beautiful cottage within this award-winning golf community.
Designed to showcase Reynolds Plantation’s premier golf season and offered exclusively during the week of the golf tournament in Augusta, the Azalea Package includes lodging, golf, as well as access to marinas offering boat rentals, walking trails, tennis courts and three clubhouse restaurants – each with an inviting lounge area
