Kinderlou Forest was planned with golf first: the course was routed before the surrounding home sites, which were then arranged around it at a distance intended to keep residential views from interfering with play.
Designed by Davis Love III Designs, the course opened in April 2004. It has served as the site of professional tournaments on the PGA Nationwide and Web.com Tours, including the South Georgia Classic.
