Georgia's luxury golf market is smaller and more concentrated than the sprawling Sunbelt markets to its south, but no less storied. With 84 golf course homes currently active across the state, the top of the market is anchored by two unmistakable addresses: the coastal enclaves of Saint Simons and Sea Island, and the lakefront fairways of Reynolds Lake Oconee an hour east of Atlanta.
We pulled the most expensive golf course homes currently active across Georgia directly from MLS data, and paired them with the market numbers that explain where the state's wealth concentrates. From a $13.5 million estate at Kings Point to the live-oak-shaded mansions of Ocean Forest, here is the top of the Georgia market in 2026.

Home on Market
1. 144 Point Ln — $13,500,000
The single most expensive golf course home on the Georgia market is a Kings Point estate on Saint Simons Island, the largest of the Golden Isles and a place where coastal Georgia's old money has summered for generations. At more than 9,000 square feet, the residence trades on a combination of deep-water frontage, mature live-oak canopy, and proximity to the Sea Island Golf Club that simply cannot be replicated inland. It is the only home in the state currently asking eight figures.
2. 450 Forest Rd — $7,895,000
A second Ocean Forest estate sits just behind the first on the same street, underscoring how tightly Georgia's top-tier inventory clusters within a few gated coastal enclaves rather than spreading across the state. Sea Island's scarcity of buildable lots inside the Ocean Forest gates is itself a price driver, keeping resale homes here among the most coveted on the Georgia coast.
3. 811 Hawks Nest Ct — $6,000,000
Hawks Ridge in Ball Ground sits in the rolling foothills north of Atlanta, where a quieter, equestrian-tinged style of golf community has taken hold. At more than 20,000 square feet, this Hawks Nest Court estate is the largest home on this list by floor area, a reminder that buyers willing to trade coastal cachet for acreage can command enormous scale in north Georgia.
4. 455 Peachtree Battle Ave NW — $5,550,000
Peachtree Battle Avenue runs through the heart of Buckhead, Atlanta's most prestigious in-town neighborhood, where proximity to the city's legacy clubs drives pricing as much as the homes themselves. This estate rounds out the top of the Georgia market and confirms that, alongside the coast and the lake, intown Atlanta remains a third pillar of the state's luxury golf landscape.
Inside Georgia's Luxury Real Estate Market
Georgia's luxury golf market is really three markets in one state. The coastal Golden Isles — Saint Simons and Sea Island — own the very top of the price ladder, where scarcity and resort pedigree set the terms. Reynolds Lake Oconee anchors the inland lake market, while metro Atlanta's northern suburbs supply the broadest volume of high-end golf inventory.
The split between volume and price is the key to understanding Georgia. Alpharetta and the northern Atlanta suburbs offer the deepest selection of luxury golf homes, but when a buyer is shopping at the very top of the market, the conversation almost always moves to the coast — to Sea Island and Saint Simons, where the trophy inventory and the most exclusive memberships are concentrated.
What's Driving Demand
- Coastal scarcity. Sea Island and Saint Simons offer a fixed supply of barrier-island golf real estate, and the gated Ocean Forest community releases very few homes in any given year — keeping the top of the market tightly bid.
- The Atlanta weekend. Reynolds Lake Oconee has become the default second-home destination for metro Atlanta's executives, pairing championship golf with deep-water lake access an easy drive from the city.
- Sunbelt migration. Georgia continues to draw high-net-worth households relocating from the Northeast and Midwest, many of whom buy into private golf communities on arrival.
The Clubs Defining the Market
Georgia's most expensive golf homes are inseparable from the clubs they sit inside. A short list of communities defines the very top of the market.
Sea Island Golf Club — Sea Island
Set on the Georgia coast, Sea Island is a Five-Star resort and residential community whose courses have hosted national championship golf. Its gated Ocean Forest enclave is the most exclusive address on the island, blending championship play, deep privacy, and full resort service on a single barrier island.
Reynolds Lake Oconee — Greensboro
A sprawling lake community an hour east of Atlanta, Reynolds Lake Oconee pairs multiple championship golf courses with deep-water access on Lake Oconee and a lakefront Ritz-Carlton. It has become the weekend and second-home address of choice for metro Atlanta's executives.
Kings Point — Saint Simons Island
A coastal community on Saint Simons Island, the largest of Georgia's Golden Isles, where deep-water frontage and mature live-oak canopy meet proximity to the historic Sea Island golf courses. It holds the most expensive golf home on the Georgia market.
Hawks Ridge — Ball Ground
Tucked into the rolling foothills north of Atlanta, Hawks Ridge offers a quieter, low-density style of golf community with room for the kind of large-acreage estates that are difficult to build on the coast. It is the leading address in Georgia's north-metro luxury golf market.
Final Word
Georgia is a more concentrated luxury golf market than its Sunbelt neighbors, and the 2026 data makes the hierarchy clear: the coastal Golden Isles of Sea Island and Saint Simons hold the very top, Reynolds Lake Oconee anchors the inland lake market, and metro Atlanta supplies the breadth. For buyers, the takeaway is that Georgia's trophy inventory is coastal and scarce — the home is often the means of entry to a barrier-island community that rarely turns over.
