Meet
Scott Hoersten

Whether driving on an idyllic road within the Reynolds Lake Oconee, viewing a new building site or playing five of our six courses, you’re probably witnessing the handiwork of Scott Hoersten.

Scott began his career at Reynolds in 1985, when he was hired away from Hilton Head Island to assist in the initial land planning for the Reynolds property, eventually rising into the role of Vice President of Planning and Development. In that role for 22 years, Scott helped grow the Reynolds property from an initial 3,000 acres to its current size of 14,000 acres. Under his leadership, his team created the infrastructure for five of Reynolds’ six courses, and all of the neighborhoods, clubhouses, amenity facilities, trails, parks, and utility systems supporting the community. He also oversaw the initial planning and development of Lake Oconee Village and Lake Oconee Academy. Many of the streets, homesites, or common areas at Reynolds owe their very existence to Scott’s expertise and foresight and that same expertise today is and has been enjoyed by the hundreds of customers Scott has helped after transitioning to the real estate office in 2011.

Outside of work, Scott enjoys finding any excuse he can to be on the lake. Some of his favorite activities are cruising on the lake with his wife, Anne, to pick up their daughter Kelly, son-in-law Donny, and their new grandsons, Donny and Dallas. For Scott, or for anyone when you think about it, seeing the little ones dancing on the boat with their mother or grandmother, watching the sunset, and sometimes listening to the Braves on the radio makes for the perfect ending to a typical day at Reynolds Lake Oconee.
