Challenging course in good condition

Echelon is a challenging course and is in good condition. The practice range is excellent and the course itself is fine. The only issues are: 1) The sand traps and bunkers had not been raked for a while. If your course features a lot of sand, you need to make sure the traps/bunkers are in good playable condition. 2) The yardage markers were hard to find. Need to be easier to locate to maintain the pace of play.

I like the course and will play it again, but when paying $75 - $85 a round on a weekday you expect a bit more.

Great course, will be beautiful when it greens up!

I looked at a ton of different courses in the Atlanta area as I was driving back from Augusta, and I saw Echelon on most of the "10 Best Courses in Atlanta" and I was staying north of town a bit in Duluth, so it worked! Even though I was teeing off in twilight around 4:10pm, and I arrived around 3:30pm, there were still staff out front working the carts and helping with golf bags, so this was very nice to see and a great first impression! Checking in was smooth and painless and the gentleman behind the counter was full of great guidance and directions around the course, which was very nice to see! The course does have a HUGE practice range, but all of the targets are well below grade, and there are no signs for distance or anything like that as the teeing areas surround the range, so it might be tough to manage anyways, but it was a strange but huge practice area! The course was starting to green up, but there was still a significant amount of brown / dormant grass - but I imagine the course will be amazingly beautiful when it greens up! As many people mentioned in their reviews, it is hilly - VERY HILLY - so you cannot walk this course. The course has 5 different tee boxes so there is something for everyone here - but it's a challenge no matter what. The only thing that I would love to see is REAL bathrooms on the course of this caliber. Porta-potties behind some lattice fences is not enough for this type of course! I would love to see this improvement, but I definitely would recommend the course at $75, and probably up to maybe $125!

Lots of Elevation

Lots of Elevation changes and blind tee shots make Echelon a tough but fun track. Pro shop and restaurant staff were super friendly and food was good. Great value for the money.

interesting golf course

It was an interesting course with elevation differences that I experienced for the first time since coming to Georgia.

It rained a few days ago, so the course conditions weren't great, but I think it's a golf course worth revisiting.

Never had so many shots roll backwards

Early season golf is not indicative

We had a lot of rain last week and it was cart path only which is always a slog but necessary.

Solid layout and a lot of elevation changes on the back nine.. Playing uphill holes is never fun

Best holes are 8 - brutal 11th and 13th..

Course has many extreme edges as its defense

An example on uphill 14th.. drive rolled back 40 yards after landing on fairway and blind 3rd rolled back 30 yards off false front of the green twice.. so had 100 yards of backward yardage on one hole

Landed on right edge of 18th green and not only spun off the green but down the hill 30 yards into the hazard.

Guess when the rough grows will not happen but still says do not be short now

Nice practice range but first timers behind us as well thought it was too hard.. Many forced carries for the ladies

Beautiful course and layout with amazing views

Visiting family from out of state, and this is the best course I’ve played in Georgia so far. Beautiful track with amazing views provided by the drastic elevation changes. Perfect routing that includes a great variety of holes. Course conditions were good considering the amount of rain they had leading up to the day I played. Greens were pure but not very fast because they probably didn’t get a chance to cut them with all the rain. I hope I’m able to come back and play here again during prime season.
