The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds Lake Oconee is a hotel in Greensboro, Georgia. The land was purchased by solidified cottonseed oil inventor Mercer Reynolds Sr. and his cousin James Madison Reynolds in the 1920s and 30s. Over the following half-century, the Reynolds family developed it into a gated community. They started allowing outside developments in the 1980s. The Ritz-Carlton opened there in 2002, with 251 rooms and suites. Before MetLife purchased the hotel from the Reynolds family in 2012, it was Reynolds Plantation. Amenities include nine restaurants, six golf courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, a spa, four marinas, multiple swimming pools, a fitness/tennis center, and paths for walking and biking.
