Why McLemore’s new course, The Outpost, makes this golf's next emerging destination
By Derek Duncan | December 20, 2022
The new course at McLemore, called The Outpost and located 16 miles south of Lookout Mountain Club with the same eastern overlook, broke ground this fall and will occupy this section of the property. To the developers’ credit, they’ve reserved the entire site for golf. Many real-estate-focused entities would have cashed in upfront on the million-dollar views and reserved the frontage for homesites, but McLemore realized that placing the course along the ridgeline, which looks directly down over a cove 400 feet below, could pay indefinite dividends.
