Currahee

What Currahee does

Currahee Club is a private gated residential golf and lake community operating on a 1,215-acre site in Toccoa, Georgia, roughly 90 minutes from Atlanta. The asset centers on an 18-hole Jim Fazio-designed championship golf course measuring 7,513 yards from the championship tees, set within a community that combines lakefront frontage on Lake Hartwell, Blue Ridge Mountain views, residential homesites, and resort-style amenities including lodging (The Inn at Currahee, Clubhouse Suites, Golf Villas, and cottages), four dining venues (Stand Alone Tavern, Canoe Bar & Grill, Turnhouse, and the main clubhouse restaurant), tennis and pickleball courts, a salt-water pool, a wellness center, and a 1.5-mile Catawba Trail fitness loop. The product surface spans the Gotham GolfTrain Academy (individual, group, junior, and corporate instruction under Director Jeff Gotham), wedding and corporate event hosting, and approved custom-home builder partnerships with Oakbrook Custom Homes, Currahee Home Builders, Toccoa Custom Homes, and Vollrath Construction Design.

The underlying technology stack is conventional hospitality tooling rather than proprietary IP: Resos.com for restaurant reservations, Clubhouse Online for member tee-time management, and standard web infrastructure for property listings and event booking. Day-to-day club operations are managed by Troon under the Troon Privé luxury hospitality brand, an arrangement formalized with new ownership in April 2026.

The business model is multi-stream: recurring membership dues across six tiers (Resident, Local within 35 miles, Regional 35–59 miles, National 60+ miles, Young Executive age ≤40, and Social with limited golf access); one-time real estate sales of residential lots priced $82,000–$219,000 plus custom home construction; transactional food and beverage revenue; golf instruction packages priced $40–$1,000; wedding and corporate event fees; and lodging income from overnight accommodations. Go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct club membership applications, an eXp Realty brokerage channel for real estate (Tracy Stephens), a WeddingWire marketplace listing for wedding leads, email newsletters, and on-property tours. As of April 2026, the club is wholly owned by CCDEV Holdings, LLC following a completed acquisition, with stated investment programs targeting golf course and clubhouse improvements plus activation of remaining residential lots.
