Hmmmm. Interesting. Might have to make the trek from Canada!

 

Sent from my Pixel XL using MyGolfSpy mobile app

One thing I can guarantee is a good time will be had by all. I plan on setting up some team competitions which will be a blast for the golfers. Plus this resort has accommodations for single golfers or those who choose to bring their families. Lot's of good stuff to do in them thar hills! You have Helen, Ga.in the next county which is a Alpine type village town and Blairsville over on the other side of the mountain. Atlanta would be the airport for those out of town to fly in to. It's a good two hour drive to Kingswood Resort so be prepared for some driving time if you're traveling from out of state.

 

No doubt we can make this a fun outing and the resort can accommodate as many people as we choose to bring. I'll be working on details and update this thread as things develop. Just gird up ya loins and get ready for the time of ya life!

 

Get Ready as the Ole Gray Invitational is coming in 2017 and we plan to take no prisoners lol..... Meaning be careful as those banjos are tuning up.. :o)

DawgDaddy has been to this resort and he can attest to how beautiful it is in this part of Georgia. Great place, fun golf course, and good folks so yea,,, it's going to be a blast!

I'll be passing fairly close by there in just a few weeks when me and my group go to Reynolds Plantation for 3-rounds and then on over to the Masters for the Tuesday practice round. I'd like to say I can come but my schedule is pretty much set for this summer and fall. That course looks nice too. A two hour drive from Atlanta is nothing. The green fee at Kingwood is a no-brainer. $40 w/cart. Did I read that correctly?!! Nice Stay & Play packages too. I think you're on the right track with this. 

Just for the record and as a reference.... my RT airfare from my home in West Texas to Atlanta is only $363 on Southwest.

 

Someday someone or perhaps even MGS will get a big National event started. Maybe this is it?

 

Good luck with your event this year.

 

On second thought: once the dates are set I'll give it some serious consideration. Fall would be my pick.

Last year We got a good stay and play package. There was was eight of us and we had a blast!

 

I have no clue what is coming for a major MGS event. Heck if something is announced in the next couple of months for this Fall, I would prefer to support and attend that. I'm all about MGS and any future outings in the planning stages 🏌️

The resort is beautiful, the staff top notch and friendly and the restaurant is very good.  The golf course is absolutely beautiful  and as most mountain courses, it is a challenge,  you will not be disappointed with the course or the conditions.   The only thing that does not fit with ones idea of resort is the rooms, they are more like a 1980s Holiday Inn room.  They are plenty big and the views are great, the beds are comfy and the rooms are clean so I can't imagine anyone  having a problem with the rooms, but to me they are in need of remodeling.  I am saying this about the rooms so no one would be disappointed with their room.

 

I really enjoyed the entire weekend last year, everyone is planning to return this year that I have talked to so we should have a good turn out and a great time.  Ole Gray knows how to throw a wing ding fo sho!

Yea he's right about the rooms being retro however,,, This could be one of the updates my friend at Kingwood is hinting at. If not, you city slickers are going to have to to rough it ... . Nawwwww you can do it. The thing is, this place is beautiful and being able to stay on site is a huge plus although we may have to journey into town for some of that famous barbecue!!!

Once Tony said "drinks are on me", it was all over. I think I finished my 14th beer before teeing off on 14, then shot +10 on the last 5 holes. It was a great time. Really hope I can make this trip.
