Arrowhead Pointe At Lake Richard B. Russell

We played on a Monday and only saw one group tee off in front of us. We had the course to ourselves. We enjoyed the lush fairways. The greens had recently been aerated and sanded, but they were smooth, but a little slow with the sand. This is a beautiful layout with 3-4 holes along the lake. Good mixture of long and short holes. Very good chance to score here if you stay out of the trees.

Course was in fantastic shape and very challenging. Only complaint the pace of play slow groups would not let faster players play through, making for a long round.

Loved the golf course and staff but the bathrooms in the Pro Shop were filthy.

Best state park course in Georgia that I have played. Excellent conditions, friendly staff and awesome layout.

The front 9 is pretty average. Excellent fairways. Greens had been punched a week or two previous so not filled back out yet. The back 9 makes the course. Several holes around the lake or over it in some places. Worth the drive.

Arrowhead Pointe was in good condition as normal. Rough had been cut down some since last week. Pace of play was great. Remember to tell everyone in your group No Personal Coolers allowed.

Course was in excellent shape tee to green. Greens still recovering from aeration and not as smooth and true rolling as normal. Finished round at 2 pm and “19th hole” grill, snacks and drinks was closed so had to drive into Elberton for lunch.

This course is well off the beaten path but well worth the drive. It has several holes which play right along the Savannah River with is part of lake Russell with great views. The course is in great condition and you can tell that the maintenance crew does a great job with maintaining and taking care of the course.

For me, the only drawback is that the grill is ALWAYS understaffed. The person working at the grill went home at 2:00 pm. Who closes their grill at 2:00 pm on a weekend? The only thing we were able to get to eat was candy bars and chips which were sitting on a rack. That is ridiculious!!!

The course overall and the greens are great and some of the best in Georgia . A must play course, especially for the value you get with the very fair and reasonable price. I love playing Arrowhead Pointe when I can. Well worth the two hour drive for me to get there.
