Suburban convenience close to Golden Isles beaches and Brunswick
The Glynn County suburb of Country Club Estates, just north of Brunswick, is popular for its lower home prices. "You're going to get a lot more house for your money," says Zaida Clay Harris, an associate broker and managing partner at Signature Properties Group.

A quick drive to four of Georgia’s barrier islands, commercial corridors and historic downtown Brunswick add convenience to its appeal.

U.S. Route 17 and Brunswick Golden Isles Airport nearby
Route 17 divides Country Club Estates in two, heading south into Brunswick and north toward the Brunswick Golden Isles Airport. While mainly used for general aviation, the small airfield also has direct flights to and from Atlanta. Interstate 95, accessible in Dock Junction, runs to Jacksonville and Savannah. Both bigger cities are about an hour away, depending on traffic, a perk unique to this part of Glynn County. "You can see Broadway shows in Jacksonville, and Savannah is a great place to spend the day because it's so historic," Harris says.
Weather and crime
Country Club Estates is at risk of hurricanes. The Mackay and Back rivers, and the creeks branching from them, often flood during hurricanes, nor’easters and other heavy rainfalls. The chance of flooding is especially high in the Belle Pointe subdivision, east of Route 17. Evacuation routes and other resources are on the Glynn County website. Crime statistics for Country Club Estates are not readily available.
