Crystal Lake Golf & Country Club sprawls across a scenic landscape of native wetlands, an abundance of hardwood trees, and a generous smattering of meandering creeks and sparkling lakes. The beautiful terrain sets it apart from other golf courses in the Atlanta area. The course is known for the numerous grass-walled bunkers filled with pristine white sand that are strategically placed throughout. The player-friendly greens are wide and approachable, but there is the occasional multi-tier to watch out for. The generous nature of the greens also allows for a variety of pin placements. The natural features of the landscape at Crystal Lake Golf & Country Club not only provide beautiful scenery but they also make for a more interesting game since they require you to get creative with your shot-making, especially when trying to figure out how to handle some of the tricky carries.

Great shape!

A few years ago, I thought this course would never recover. Over the last year or so, it has made a remarkable change. Kudos to the greens keepers and the staff at Crystal Lake! The greens are immaculate, fairways are beautiful, and tee boxes are well maintained. I love this course. The only negative is that it doesn’t go back to the clubhouse after the 9th hole, so be sure to grab waters etc before heading out. Would really be nice to have a small refreshment station between 9 and 10 with sandwiches and drinks.

Complete Disappointment

We have played CL probably 20 times in the last 5 years. The course is excellent. Challenging holes and everything is in good shape. However, when we showed up on Saturday, 6/3/23, we learned that our tee times (we had 6 guys-2 3somes) would be delayed over an hour. Apparently someone booked a tournament on a Saturday. There were no carts. The excuse given was “well, they are slow to come in.” It was an absolute disaster. At one point, 6 groups were waiting on #1 to tee off. The starter allowed the 140pm group to go ahead of us even though we had the 120 and 130 times. Apparently, someone in the 140 group works at CL So not only did they jump the line, they also got our carts and the marshal and outside staff did nothing about it. The gentleman inside the shop was super nice and apologetic when we checked in and gave us free range balls, and Kellyn the bev cart girl was super friendly, but this is not how you treat guests who spent over $500 at your club. We were disrespected, disregarded, and taken advantage of by the outside staff. We ended up going off 75 minutes late. The pace of play took over 5 hours. We ended up not leaving until almost 8pm after booking times at 120&130pm. Such a disappointment. Take your time and money elsewhere.

Nice course, friendly staff, terrible layout

The course is nice but not well marked, unless you are very familiar - it is not easy to navigate. It does not logically progress forward (at least not the front 9). A few signs could help a lot

Very good condition, patches of grass missing in some fairways otherwise great. Maybe they should lower the price for seniors during the week days.

Having just played both courses at RTJ Grand National, the green speeds were significantly slower, they were in good condition but the speeds were more to our liking. We were a 4 ball playing the course for the 1st time and found the pace of play was good.

Very nice course

The course is in exceptional condition. Fairways are nicely groomed if you can stay in them. LOL. The greens are in great shape. I’ve played this course twice now and both times we had incredibly slow groups (plural) in front. Plan on a 5 hour outing on the weekend. This course can be deceivingly challenging but forgiving at the same time. I highly recommend the course.

My new favorite course in the Atlanta area

Went as a solo on Sunday morning around 11, was able to hit some practice shots on the range and go out as a solo, had no issues at all with pace and no one behind/in front of me for almost every hole. Amenity cart came around 3 times. Course layout is amazing, and the scenery is awesome. Drive from Midtown is easy with 75. Will be back every weekend I am available.

All 5 Stars for real

One of the best courses in the Atlanta area. Beautiful course that will make you feel like your on vacation. Very affordable. Great conditions. Open fairways easy to use the driver if you can control and avoid some houses and bunkers.
