History
The Brickyard Golf Club was built in 1961 by Charles “Chic’ Adams. It was formally Riverside Golf and Country Club prior to its purchase in December 2003 by brothers Kenneth and Alfred Sams Jr. The Sams brothers envisioned constructing a true championship caliber golf course for central Georgia that would commemorate their personal ties to Macon golf and contracted former PGA TOUR player Mark McCumber to redesign the golf course and all facilities. It is now an immaculately maintained and private club with a membership of approximately 450.

Pure
Unfettered by country club-ism, fairway homes, road noise, and power lines. Golf. Accessible and played as it was meant to be on a course of extraordinary manicured beauty and natural elegance, designed to take the game to its purest level. We offer 18 holes of championship golf that is friendly enough for the weekend golfer and challenging enough for the seasoned veteran. Challenging for low handicappers. Fun and exhilarating for the rest of us.
Pride and Pursuit of Perfection
Make no mistake. We take golf seriously. That’s why we spent two years on the redesign to reshape every fairway, rebuilt every green and tee, added new bunkers and crafted a new clubhouse, pavilion and swimming facility. In 2005 we’ve added over four million square feet of fresh sod, 1,800 new pine trees and 300,000 hand-planted wild grass specimens. Bunkers were redone in 2016. 100 crepe myrtles were planted in 2017. We strive to keep the golf course in the best possible condition at all times.
The Result
One of Georgia’s most breathtaking, challenging golf masterpieces; an unparalleled club experience of refuge, relaxation, member camaraderie and casual dining. Brickyard is in a class by itself. Pure golf.
