Mike Scully is on the move again, and this time it’s Southeast of the Chicago area.

After a great run Southwest of Chicago in Arizona for six years, Scully now finds himself at, Reynolds at Lake Oconee, in Greensboro Georgia ( 75 miles east of Atlanta).

Reynolds at Lake Oconee (formerly known as Reynolds Plantation) continues to grow as a community, a private club and a resort destination all rolled into one.

The entire property is over 12,000 acres, that wind around water-ways and six championship golf courses. They were designed by architects like Jack Nicklaus, Jim Engh, Bob Cupp, Tom Fazio and Rees Jones. The property includes the Reynolds Kingdom of Golf, presented by TaylorMade. The Great Waters course by Nicklaus is currently undergoing a full renovation.

Former Medinah Country Club Director of Golf Mike Scully, is now the General Manager of the 12,000 acre property, Reynolds at Lake Oconee in Georgia.

For Scully the new job add’s more to his title. Unlike at Medinah where he was the director of golf, he has emerged to oversee more than just golf, but the entire property as the general manager.

Reynolds at Lake Oconee has six golf courses, but has a full list of other activities to take part in. Do you enjoying fishing or boating. Hiking or running the trails, and or improving your skills in the kitchen or on the grill. Those are some of things that residents, guests and members can do.

For those of you who like to shoot, the Sandy Creek Sporting Grounds provides options from Clays to Air-pistols and rifles.

When you stay at Reynolds, guests have several options to enjoy. They include Five-Star treatment at the Ritz-Carlton, that has 251 rooms and suites, and for even more relaxtion, why not visit Ritz-spa for hours and treatments Southern-style. There is also a salon and full fitness center. Homes, condominiums, and cottages are other lodging possibilities.

Golf has been a major part of the property since, Cupp’s Landing Course, was the first to open back in 1986.
