Forest Hills, located between Augusta University’s Summerville Campus and the Augusta National Golf Club, is a historic and residential Augusta neighborhood with curving parkways and a classic garden-suburb layout. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Forest Hills Golf Club and its winding approach off Wrightsboro Road, where fairway views and mid-century club energy set the tone. Architectural lines lean toward brick ranches, Colonial Revival touches, and shaded lots that follow the terrain. Lake Olmstead Park and the Augusta Canal towpath frame outdoor routines with water and tree cover. Community pillars include Forest Hills Golf Club, the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area, and the Morris Museum of Art. Streets feel quiet and landscaped, with a polished, established rhythm tied to golf, trails, and nearby cultural stops.
