Cuscowilla and Reynolds Plantation are the two major courses along Interstate 20 between Atlanta and Augusta. Access will be difficult around The Masters. At Cuscowilla, if I remember correctly, you must stay at the resort to play, but it's well worth it.

The Bears Best is quite good if you are up that way. It is FAR from the airport, however. Wolf Creek is almost right next to the airport and is surprisingly good. A few goofy holes (blind tee shots) on the second nine but considering the convenience to the airport, it's a good option.
