Reynolds Landing

[See more Atlanta retirement communities and Augusta retirement communities]

Reynolds Landing first began development in the 1980’s as “Port Armor” and its main draw was having the first championship golf course on Lake Oconee. The community that is now Reynolds Landing really set the bar for the future developments in the area. Convenience to the cities of Atlanta and Augusta (just an hour away) is also a nice feature.

In 2005, Linger Longer Development ( see also: Reynolds Plantation and Achasta) took over the community and spent heavily to upgrade the golf course, the roads, and the amenities, with a pool, tennis and recreational facility that opened in 2007.

Perhaps one of the best lifestyle amenities available in Georgia, the Linger Longer Living Cultural Lifestyle Experiences (say that 5 times fast!) series and the Oconee Performing Arts Society provide a full year’s worth of music, dance, concerts, exhibitions, lectures and other events for residents of Reynolds Landing and Reynolds Plantation.

Local towns offer antique shopping, dining and a wealth of cultural and historical sites. Lake Oconee Village, a master-planned commercial and retail center, opened in fall 2002, has several restaurants, boutiques, medical clinics, banks, pharmacies and a Publix Super Market only five minutes from the gates of Reynolds Landing.

The new clubhouse and amenity center includes a full-service restaurant and lounge, a beach-entry family pool with a waterslide and hot tub, and 4 hard surface tennis courts. There are also plenty of things for the kids and grandkids to enjoy such as the new adventure playground with swings, slides, and rocking toys. In addition there is a lakeside community park, and an athletic field.

Reynolds Landing is situated around the award-winning Bob Cupp designed Golf Course which was called one of Georgia’s best golf courses when it opened, second only to Augusta National. According to the Reynolds Landing website:

“It features a variety of holes that wind through naturally wooded areas and rolling hills, making the course enjoyable for all levels of golfers. Three holes wrap dramatically along the shoreline of the lake and the green settings and shot values make this one of the premium tests of golf on Lake Oconee.”

Because it is an older community, the lot and home prices are a bit more reasonable than adjacent Reynolds Plantation. After a quick search of available properties we found lots from the $70k’s and homes up to the $600k’s. [visit website]
