Description
Overview About Chapel Hills/Mirror Lake/Bobby Jones Links Bobby Jones Links manages two distinctive golf experiences west of Atlanta-Chapel Hills in Douglasville and Mirror Lake in Villa Rica-each offering its own character, scenery, and championship-caliber design.
Chapel Hills features an 18-hole course designed by Rocky Roquemore and Jeff Burton. Known as a member favorite, the layout winds through rolling hills and dramatic granite outcroppings, creating a visually striking and challenging round. The course is highlighted by its undulating double green shared by holes 9 and 18, as well as some of the fastest and best-maintained greens in the area. Overlooking the course, the clubhouse offers sweeping views of the landscape along with a pro shop, restaurant, and locker rooms, where members can enjoy indoor dining or relax on the patio.
In nearby Villa Rica, Mirror Lake offers 36 holes of championship golf, also designed by Roquemore and Burton. Open since 1999, the course is set along the shores of its namesake lake and features four distinct nine-hole layouts, five tee options, and a design that blends playability with scenic lakefront views. Members and guests can take in the surroundings before or after their round in the spacious clubhouse, which includes a grill, pro shop, locker rooms, and both indoor and outdoor dining with tableside and walk-up service.
