The East Lake Golf Course, nestled in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia, stands as a revered destination for golf enthusiasts and professionals alike. As one of the most iconic and historic golf courses in the United States, it’s no surprise that many are curious about the cost of experiencing this prestigious venue firsthand. The cost of playing at the East Lake Golf Course is influenced by several factors, including membership status, tee time reservations, and special events.

For those seeking to enjoy the exclusive amenities and privileges offered by the East Lake Golf Course, membership is the only avenue. East Lake Golf Club is not open to the public. In order to enjoy the perks of swinging a club on one of the most beautiful golf courses in the south, you will need to fork out $125,000 for the membership fee. It is also heavily, ahem, suggested that you make a donation of $200,000 to the East Lake Foundation.

An option is to have a membership at a club that has a reciprocal deal with East Lake, or have your club Pro put in a call on your behalf. It is not impossible to play as a non-member, but it is very difficult. If you should manage to pull it off, the green fees will set you back between $150 and $300 depending on the date and time that you manage to get a round in.

While as a general rule, non-members can only play East Lake as the guest of a member, special events hosted at the East Lake Golf Course may offer a foot in the hallowed doors. The TOUR Championship, which concludes the PGA Tour’s FedExCup Playoffs, will allow spectators who purchase ticket packages a chance to witness golf history in action.
