Bartram Trail Golf Club
About
Bartram Trail Golf Club in Evans is situated just minutes from Augusta National. Despite the fame of its neighbor, Bartram Trail stands out for being Columbia County's only public golf course. It has a location next to Patriot's Park that provides forests of mature hardwoods and pine trees that were fully utilized in the design. The scenic and well preserved landscape of the golf course includes rolling hills, natural wetlands, and the meandering Euchee Creek. The dedication to preserving the beauty of the terrain earned the course certification as an Audubon International Wildlife Sanctuary. Although the hills, trees, and wetlands present some formidable challenges, Bartram Trail Golf Club was designed with playability in mind as well. There are some tricky holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Great greens, great value
I played 18 in the morning and liked it so much that I played another 18 that afternoon. Course was in great shape, but the greens in particular were fantastic. Fast, smooth and true. I talked to a greenskeeper who said they cut and roll them every day and it showed.
About half the holes have houses on them, but the other half feel like you are in the wilderness, surrounded by trees and nature. The holes that do have houses on them, the houses do not come into play - you have to be really wild off the tee. Also, mercifully, some areas that would normally be marked OB at other courses are marked as a lateral hazard making it possible to drop as opposed to re-teeing.
The course has a lot of beautiful elevation change to go with the trees.
The fairways are wide with plenty of space on either side before getting into the junk. Likewise there is a lot of space around every green complex. There are only 12 bunkers, but the lack of bunkers didn’t take away from the difficulty or beauty of the course. Keeping bunkers to a strategic minimum speeds up play and keeps costs down. A lot of courses should take their cues from Bartram Trails in this regard.
Lastly, the greens are where it’s at on this golf course. If they were slow or flat, it wouldn’t be as good a course - still fun, but not what it is.
I played it the next day with my 8 year old - they have a set of junior tees which are perfect for young golfers.
bottom line - can’t wait to play it again.
Nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this course, I just can't play it alot unless of specials. If you use a GPS golfbuddy of sort, you have to set it on 10th hole to get the readings on hole # 1.
Fun Course
This is a fun and challenging course. Greens are rolling fast but I enjoyed my round. I look forward to my next round.
Great Course
First time playing. Course in great condition for end of October. Pace of play good and greens very fast. Course is one hour drive, but well worth it. Will definitely be going back.
Slow Play
Took over 4 1/2 hours for my twosome to play a round due to slow play in front of us (played the front 9 in an hour and a half). A ranger would be helpful.
Awesome Deal
Very awesome the course the staff the layout well worth it and would very much recommend it to my friends very awesome course greens are really fast awesome
Great Round
Greens rolled true and the ball set up in the fairway.
Excellent Course
The fairways were in excellent shape and the greens were amazingly good - rolling very true. Nice rolling hills and with 5 par 3's and 5 par 5's, many opportunities to birdie!
Solid value
Has its share of challenging holes for a medium handicapper. Greens are smooth and fast making them easy to 3 putt.
NICE!!!!
The course was well kept and beautiful. However my GPS watch was not functioning like it was suppose to and I found out why on number 10 tee box. Apparently the front nine was backwards to the back nine. My GPS showed number 10 as hole number 1.
Good course, not great. It will test your game.
It is a fun course to play, and the price was right!
Evans GA
Course has all the challenges of the area: hills, quick greens, hit the fairways, carry to fairways and greens, etc.
We moved right along on the back nine after being behind a tournament group the front nine. Greens while quick were true if the putt was put on the correct line and speed.
Ball sat very nice on fairway and when in rough was a challenging shot.
Best public course in the Augusta Area
Always a pleasure to play.
Always in great condition.
Always enjoy the hospitable staff.
Jeff And the Course Staff have put in the hours and skill so all the CSRA can enjoy their work.
The course was in fantastic shape..Fairways green and lush.The putting greens recently rolled and were in competition condition. Staff was friendly and helpful. This is the best time of year to play so get your gear and injoy a great round of golf at Bartram.
