Henry Horton State Park (Buford Ellington course)

Unrated: Well regarded course not yet visited by the Where2Golf team.

Est. 1963

The Buford Ellington course at Henry Horton State Park is a good quality layout, popular with local golfers. The tree-lined parkland course contains a variety of attractive holes and pleasant features, which should provide an enjoyable test of golf at a generally affordable rate. The holes are laid out in a wonderfully natural State Park woodland setting, without any intrusion from roads or housing. Worth a visit if you are in the area and have some time to spare.
