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.

Fun experience

I'm from out of state and looked for a place to play after the Masters. Found Bartram Trail on Golfnow, and I'm glad i did. Only got in 10 holes because I had to catch a flight and it got slow on the back, but front was really enjoyable. Good amount of room off the tee and some challenging shots into the greens, which are firm and fast. Was in a couple of bunkers and they were in very good condition. Only criticisms is that the 9th hole has a pretty big gully to fly over. Seemed a bit severe, as was the green. And though the 10th is short, there was a MIckey Mouse pin placement in the front where any putt missing the hole by a couple of feet would roll off the green. Horrible by the guy setting up the day. Otherwise, a great value.

Fun day

Had not played here since Bartram disappeared from GolfNow. Glad course is again offering discount tee times. Course was very wet due to recent downpours which was understandable. Would love to play again on a dry day. Only odd thing was that even with all the rain, several of the greens were still firm. They were also kind of slow but with the rain they could not mow.

New ownership sucks

Got new carts that were a complete downgrade with no gps or speaker. Staff was rude and pretentious and now they up the price by $20.

Excellent

Satirday Pin placement made some holes difficult to read green. Over all challenging bit still entertaining to play. Some holes had large areas of over growth which made difficult to locate hard slice or draws. Will defiantly play again

Average Conditions

We played Bartram Trail on the final day of a golf trip to the Augusta area. Twelve of us played on a very hot/humid day. The course was good – not great. Conditions reflect a lot of play. Several wet drainage areas in fairways and other areas very dry and thin. Lot of areas on edges of fairway are bare dirt. The greens were good. Good burger in the grill. Bring your ice with you because they are very stingy with theirs.

Nice Course, needs some work

Overall, Bartram Trail is okay. The greens were firm and fast and the fairways were in good shape. However, the tee boxes were pretty much a disaster area. On many of them there was no grass to be found. The cart paths were pretty bad in many areas. Some of the problem is due to encroaching tree roots, but even worse was the cart path/fairway junctions. Some were nearly impassable.

It was a pretty warm day, and we only saw the beverage cart once during the round. Also, the water coolers located on some of the tee areas were empty. When we checked in at the pro shop we were told that the course is under new management. I hope the new management gets these issues resolved, because Bartram Trail is a nice layout and has always been fun to play.

Great Golf!

The course is really just amazing.. gotta play to one side or the other on most holes as your ball will run off and get lost if your not careful. super fun and well maintained course.

Golf carts are extremely controlled and could use some remapping of the allowed zones and speeds.

Staff was pretentious and not very friendly or welcoming.
