Berkeley Hills Country Club

Duluth, Georgia
DULUTH, GA | Berkeley Hills Country Club is proud to be a Private, Member-owned club since 1964. Generations have grown up at BHCC making memories with their families and friends while enjoying a host of amenities including 18 holes of golf designed by Ron Kirby and Gary Player, Driving/Practice Facilities, Tennis, Aquatic Center, Fitness, Dining and Social Events. Enjoy the fresh air and friends while sipping a cold beverage on the Veranda of the 33,000 square foot clubhouse overlooking the 18th green. Whether just for fun or exercise, take advantage of one of the 8 tennis courts, Junior Olympic swimming pool and fitness facilities.
The Berkeley Hills Country Club eighteen-hole golf course is playable yet challenging, stretching over 6,700 yards from the back tees. It is fun for the many single-digit golfers in our club and to those just learning the game. With over 50 years of history, the course features mature, tree-lined fairways, and a rolling terrain. It is a “core” golf course, meaning you are not surrounded and playing past a multitude of homes like many modern subdivision courses. BHCC hosts many major Georgia State Golf Association, Georgia PGA, and USGA Tournaments including The Championship at Berkeley Hills.
Our Club has gained a reputation for having some of the purest, smoothest greens in the Atlanta area. In 2022 we replaced our greens and planted new beautiful Tiff Eagle Bermuda greens. To support this project Berkeley Hills replaced the irrigation system and purchased push mowers to properly grow and support this investment.
Berkeley Hills Country Club's practice facilities offers a full-length driving range with multiple landing areas, a large putting green, and a bunkered chipping area perfect for a pre-round warm up or a great day of practice. In fact, the golf team at Georgia State University calls Berkeley Hills Country Club home when not playing in tournaments.
The Ballroom offers our most elegant dining experience. Select that perfect wine to accompany an expertly prepared entrée you might only expect to find at the finest restaurants in Atlanta. With a capacity of up to 200 people, the ballroom is also the ideal location to host your next charity event, wedding reception, or holiday party.
The Club Bar and Grill is the most casual of our dining rooms. Stop in for a family dinner and let your spouse have a night out of the kitchen. With seating for up to 60 people, host your next luncheon or dinner party in the club’s Bar & Grill, offering flexible dining hours to accommodate all of your needs.
The Veranda wraps around the back of the entire clubhouse and overlooks the ninth and eighteenth holes. This is where members congregate to watch players finishing in a tournament, to enjoy dinner on a warm spring night, and to simply relax with their friends and fellow members.
Berkeley Hills Country Club features 8 lighted tennis courts, including 6 hard courts and 2 Har-Tru soft courts. USTA and ALTA teams and matches, first class professional instruction, first class facility, and great members are integral parts of our tennis program at the Club.
Berkeley Hills Country Club also has a staffed pro shop with full racquet repair service. Our tennis professional is a master at organizing and implementing social functions and outings having hosted over 100 different ALTA and USTA teams per year.
