Great Course - Great Condition - rough IS a little high in places

Folks that live near Arrowhead Pointe are very lucky. Exceptional course with great views and a lot of fun holes. Had a group that stayed on site in cabins. They're nice, not great but you're there in the middle of nowhere for the golf. Have been here a number of times and this time the rough as people have said is a bit long in places. How can I say that,? We didn't lose any balls but over 2 days of play while searching for our balls we found over 12 balls in the rough.. almost had to step on the ball to find.

If you're out near here..give it a play.. Suggest Golfnow for the tee times..better rate was found there than us pre-booking because we were in cabins.

Great Georgia gem

Great golf course. Greens are smooth and firm. Running about a 10 on the stimp. Beautiful holes on the lake. Narrow fairways. Highly recommend.

Course is great, rough a little high but there should be a penalty for missing the fairway!!! Great experience with friends.

Definitely worth the ride

A great layout with lots of lake views. Tee boxes, fairways and greens in excellent condition. Pace of play would be helped if the rough were kept shorter. Spent way too much time searching for balls that were 3 to 5 feet into the rough. Basically had to step on ball to find it. Spoke with several groups that shared this point of view. On another note, I found lots of good balls in the rough while looking for mine.

I had heard about this course a lot from friends.

Very nice layout. Challenging but fair. On some holes the Bermuda rush was too deep resulting lost balls that should be found. Otherwise the course has wide fairways and large greens. The sand bunkers were very well kept. I would definitely come back and play again.

Great course, TERRIBLE rough

Played for the first time and love the course. Beautiful layout with awesome scenery, some fantastic holes. Only complaint was the rough. I have no problem with a player being penalized for hitting it in the rough, but you shouldn’t risk losing your ball EVERY TIME you miss the fairway. I lost a ball a few feet from the fairway. I dropped a ball in the area, went 10 feet to my cart for a club, and literally almost didn’t find the ball I dropped.

I am planning another round there in October and hope the rough has been cut down to about half what it was this day.

Tough Rough

Course is in good shape, however the rough is overly punitive. Miss the fairway and count on adding an extra stroke to your score for that hole. If you can find your ball you’ll be lucky to advance it more than 50 yards.

Would not recommend for the recreational golfer until they cut the rough down some.

Rough

For me, the typical amateur, the rough is way too high. If you don’t hit the fairway you may never find your ball unless you step on it. This results is a lot of lost balls and very slow play.

Arrowhead Point

I stated that I wouldn't recommend the course which is only because of the condition of the roughs which in my opinion should be shorter or a different grass. MY group was a threesome behind a foursome with a twosome following up. Play was made longer because most everyone was looking for their ball.

Our most favorite course in the mountains, can't beat the beauty!

Great day once again at Arrowhead Pointe, had the course to ourselves! It was hot but there was a breeze that kept it tolerable, the course is in EXCELLENT SHAPE. Greens run true and smooth. Only thing that was challenging was the rough, too long for finding the golf balls, would suggest to get them a little shorter. Thanks for another wonderful day out, staff at pro shop & out on the course very friendly & polite. Can't wait to come back when the weather gets a little cooler!! Keep up the excellent customer service & course conditions. Stay well &

God Bless!
