West Pines Golf Club
After a $4.9 million course redesign
and renovation, the new Bill Bergin design will redefine how
golfers perceive municipal golf. Without question, West Pines
is the single best golfing value in metro Atlanta and arguably
the entire Southeast.
West Pines Golf Club opened with 9 holes in
1965, with 9 additional holes built several years later. In
2004, the City of Douglasville purchased the existing golf
course. Wanting to keep the golf course as "green space",
Mayor Mickey Thompson and the City Council hired HMS Golf
of Woodstock to redesign, rebuild and manage the golf course.
HMS Golf subsequently hired local golf architect and former
PGA Tour player, Bill Bergin to design the course. Forefront
Construction began the reconstruction in early 2005. The result
was a brand new golf course with 18 new holes, a practice
tee and putting green. The course opened on December 26, 2005
to rave reviews, playing over 30,000 rounds in it's first
full year of operation. In the fall of 2006, the new clubhouse
opened in time to host the City of Douglasville's annual charity
golf tournament. With the completion of this final phase of
construction, West Pines Golf Club is proudly serving the
residents of Douglasville and it's surrounding communities.
