Country Club of the South is a private, gated community of more than 700 homes on roughly 900 acres in Johns Creek, along the Chattahoochee River. The homeowners association runs the gates, roads and a recreation center campus finished in 2020, while the 18-hole golf club next door is a separate business with its own optional membership.

Where is Country Club of the South?

The community is in the City of Johns Creek in North Fulton County. The HOA office is at 9375 Barnwell Road, Johns Creek, GA 30022, and the golf club is at 4100 Old Alabama Road. Beyond the home sites, the association counts about 14 acres of common area, 200 acres of trees and 35 acres of wetlands.

The HOA asks agents to flag homes within 2,000 feet of the river, which fall in the Atlanta River Corridor, so check a lot's location before you plan an addition or a new pool.

Nearby neighborhoods include Medlock Bridge and DoubleGate.

What are the homes like?

The HOA describes a range of styles, from manor homes to large estates, plus a small number of lots still for sale. Because sizes and ages vary so much inside the gates, compare each house with recent sales on its own street rather than the community as a whole.

What amenities does Country Club of the South have?

Dues cover the HOA's recreation center and common areas:

  • A clubhouse that holds about 100 people
  • A junior Olympic pool with a slide and a zero-entry splash area
  • 5 tennis courts and 4 pickleball courts
  • 2 playgrounds and 2 basketball courts

The HOA lists resident clubs that include the CCS Sharks swim team, tennis, book clubs, bridge and mahjong, plus a yearly calendar of neighborhood events. The Country Club of the South Charity Guild, a volunteer group based in the community, reports raising more than $4 million for Atlanta-area nonprofits.

How do the gates and the HOA work?

There are two staffed entrances plus a service entrance, and the gates are manned around the clock. New owners must complete a welcome orientation at the HOA office after closing, with a driver's license and the signed settlement statement, before they can buy gate transponders ($50 each) and get pool cards.

The HOA's January 2026 letter to agents lists 2026 assessments of $2,100 due March 1 and $2,100 due September 1, for $4,200 a year, plus a $4,000 initiation fee at closing. It also notes that signs are not allowed on common property or home sites, and that the covenants do not allow motorcycles to be ridden in the community. PMI Northeast Atlanta provides on-site management.

Is the golf club part of the HOA?

No. The golf club is a member of Arcis Golf, and club membership is not required to live in the community. The HOA says the club has about 550 golf members and 21 ALTA tennis teams, and the club itself has operated since 1987.

Which schools serve Country Club of the South?
