A Host to History

AAC was founded in 1898 but over the years outgrew its former homes, both downtown and its East Lake property. As the membership gradually moved north of the city, the Club moved with them, settling into a single magnificent location in Johns Creek in the late 1960s.

Throughout the years, historic figures in the golf community have called Atlanta Athletic Club their home. The Jones Museum (pictured to the right) houses the most memorabilia of Bobby Jones Jr. than anywhere in the world and is open to the public by appointment only. The accomplishments of The Sargent Family, Alexa Stirling, Dot Kirby and Martha Kirouac are displayed in our hall of champions in the golf wing.

Take a virtual tour of the Clubhouse below and learn about the tournaments hosted on our courses.
