Heron Bay Golf & Country Club

I used to play this course 3 or 4 times a week. Finally got a chance to go back out. Course is in great condition and will really come in in the next few weeks when it warms up. Hole have a good balance of challenge and reward. Definitely think about what tees you want to play from because that’ll be your difference between fun and frustration.

I loved it. Its a quality course and well taken care of. The club house staff is very friendly and helpful. The carts are in great shape. The paths are in good shape. The ball washers need to be maintained better as most have no water. Overall it is a great course with friendly staff

A wonderful layout that you have to use all the clubs in your bag. The greens are bent and in really good shape. The fairways were a tad wet but they allowed carts which helped the pace of play. A couple of scenic holes on the lake especially number 12. Would definitely return. A good course for any handicap.

Great course very challenging bunkers everywhere place your shots well.

Course is really laid out nice with spectacular views on par 5 at 12 hole ....Course has some short iron wonders but u will use the majority of ur clubs

Very wet bt had 1-1/2 inches of rain the day before. But, the course was in very good playable condition.

Always love playing Heron Bay...

Unfortunately the weather was not good. Misted all round. Rained heavily the night before. Cart path only. Really like the layout. Greens were in excellent condition.

Had to wait 45 minutes, past scheduled tee time for a golf cart...cause

The course was packed too capacity on a Tuesday, an absolutely beautifully clear November blue sky, 60 degree afternoon in Georgia.

When a cart finially arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see, Heron Bay Golf Course has upgrade to a new tan colored golf carts with available USB ports.

Happy to see those bluish-green carts (which could be found at midnight) abandon on a fairway, stuck hidden behind a tree, or left on some cart path...broken down) have vanished!

After seeing course conditions extremely decline the past year under the ClubCorp Group (formerly named the Canongate Group)...

The Schwendinger Group, is bringing the "Members Only" course up to par with its Eagle's Brooke and Crystal Lake, sister courses, in Locust Grove and the city of Hampton, Georgia respectively.

The course is extensively well groomed, fairways cropped short and the greens are putting appreciably true, this exquisite November day.

There is great variety for all golfers...

Downhill, and half water surrounded, par 3's...Even, two holes, a par 4 and a par 5's green, overlooking the beautiful Cole Reservoir in Henry County.

My favorite is hole 16, which is surrounded on the front left by 5 or 7 sand traps...Aim to the right!

Thanks GolfNow, played 18 holes for $10.00...

The normal tee rates here, run from $45.00 to $59.00!!!

I still can't believe GolfNow was able to put this excellent golf course on its roster...

You will love playing it too.

Club Corp has been promoting several of its courses the past couple weeks. Heron Bay is one. Big signs everywhere within the HB clubhouse and on carts...Members Wanted. I just can't do it...invest time and money there. The greeting at Clubhouse was lukewarm. The course was in so-so shape. Fairways holding water. Greens had many unrepaired divots. Restuarant messed up my sandwich. Then...then there is the pace of play. What should take only 4 hours (4.5 tops) took us nearly 5.5 hours. No marshall to move play along. Got behind a three-some and they in the fairway talking like they are in a hotel lobby. Nope...can't do it....couldn't be a member there.

It seems very few players here fix ball marks. Disturbing quantity of dead spots from old pitch marks on otherwise pretty good greens. We even fixed quite a few fresh ball marks from the only group ahead of our 7:15 tee time. The course has apparently too many bunkers to maintain. Most need more or new sand and all need raked. Fairways good. Tees acceptable but many need to be re-leveled . Layout good. Course long, especially on the back 9. Overall not quite up to what I expect from a Cannongate owned facility.

I am not a member of Cannogate but I would recommend this course. Somewhat challenging with the bunker layout, course was in excellent condition, and you want to stay out of rough. Greens were in excellent condition as well.
