Course well kept

The course overall is nice with the exception of the greens which were not in the best shape. Mostly the issue was ball marks and they were bumpy.

The Echelon experience

I am very fortunate to have this golf course 15 minutes from my front door. This course is in fabulous condition and is well maintained. The staff and restaurant are great! This is golf course would not be an easy walk as it has many elevation changes. The greens were receptive but fast. Overall great experience that I play at least once a month!

Don’t bother after rain

Course drains poorly, they’ll close the range and playing this course as cart path only can be exhausting due to the elevation changes.

Sand traps had not been raked, many washed out by previous days of rain. Greens had serious ball mark issues, and if you’re in the rough good luck in finding your ball.

I’d like to play it again after a few dry days. The course isn’t bad, it’s not the easiest, but it could be better maintained.

Excellent course

Over all was great course. The driving range was closed when I played. It would have been nice to hit some balls before going out. The couse was in great shape. Very challenging course. Beautiful scenery.

Still the best!

This is still the best public course in the area! Everything is so good here: the greens, the overall conditions, the layouts, the fun, the challenges, etc. If you only want to play a public course in the Atlantic area, this is the one!

Best daily fee option in Metro Atlanta. Greens always in good shape, fun and challenging lay-up and never over-booked so a 4 hour round or less is possible, at least on weekdays.

It was super wet and cart path only. That made it a tough day. But course is always in great condition and greens were rolling great.
