WELCOME TO CULINARY
New Member Onboarding

WEEK TWO STARTS HERE

FLAVORS FOR
EVERY APPETITE

Behind every great moment at Champions Retreat, there’s a menu. It was true when our founding legends met in 1999, and it’s a tradition we love to extend daily across our tables, patios, parties and firepits.

You’ll find that our culinary program crosses many paths here – many of which lead back to the Grille House for fine dining, live music, Sunday Brunch and more. It also follows the cart path to the Halfway House for casual bites at the turn, it knocks on The Barn door for banquets and celebrations, and cozies up around every cottage fire pit and private dining room. That’s right, we’ll meet you at your place…just tell us when and how many bottles!

We invite you to escape into the experiences below, while we fire up the kitchen and open up the wine cellar. There’s no limit to the celebrations ahead, and wherever you’re having one of those ‘New Member’ moments, we hope we can help uncork the bottle, pour the glass, cut the cigar and set the table.

Cheers to the finer things!

PEAK SOUTHERN
HOSPITALITY

There’s hospitality, and then there’s Champions Retreat: a preternatural want-for-nothing lifestyle that is always one step ahead of expectations, regardless of the occasion. The right red to pair with fireside warmth. A cold beer for the second nine. In-cottage meals prepared to specific tastes. Pimento-powered cocktail hours, and elaborate chef’s table experiences for the chef-driven inclined. Each culinary adventure enhances your connection with the property and your companions, while each menu focuses on regional inspiration and local sources. And when you just want a burger, well, you won’t find one better this side of Savannah.

WEEKEND WINS

While every day at Champions Retreat is an out-of-office experience, Thursday has a way of igniting our taste for lively culinary experiences. On Friday nights the Grille House grooves with Live Music, while fire pit relaxation is aided and abetted by Fire & Ice pairings of cocktails and hand-picked cigars. Be sure to save an appetite and the weekend’s best golf stories for Sunday Brunch.

 

CHEF'S TABLE

For those with an appetite for entertaining, our Chef’s Table experience is one for the books. Assemble your group of up to 20 people, select the savory menu of your choice, and let our culinary savants put their skills and service on display. Each course is paired with a 4-oz glass of wine handpicked by who else, Rouchi. Book your experience by contacting Fariborz Rouchi at (706) 854-6963.

GRILLE MASTERS

Not all heroes swing golf clubs! Grab a chef’s knife and prepare for an Immersive Cooking Class for up to six people, led by our Executive Chef. This hands-on four-course meal with paired wine is the inside track to developing a taste for the finer things at Champions Retreat. (Please note: there is a $75 per person fee for this experience.)

 

GLASS CLASS

It’s always a good pour when Rouchi brandishes the bottle opener. Uncork this Wine Class for up to six people and go behind the cellar with our F&B Director with a tour of the Club’s celebrated wine list. In between sips, refresh the palate with specialty hors d’oeuvres and get used to toasting freely and often. (Please note: there is a $50 per person fee for this experience.)

 

SOUTHERN SPIRITS

For a spirited intro to our Champion’s cocktail culture, look no further than this Mixology Clinic. Dabble in the Club’s distilled favorites and enjoy hors d’oeuvres alongside the drink masters driving our extensive bar program…good folks to know indeed. (Please note: there is a $50 per person fee for this experience.)
