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.

Very nice course!

For the price, practice balls should be included. Also, the pace could have been better, but all in all it was a very nice course!

Eric - Crystal Lake

This is an excellent course to play. The tee box is in good condition and fairway is a decent size. But beware of the greens, it is as smooth as silk. Players do repair their divots which makes playing here even better.

Chrystal lakes

The course was in great shape. The ruff is a little high, its easy to lose a ball unless your on top of it. That's only complaint. The greens are fast and smooth

One of the Best in Atlanta

This course is in really solid condition. Tee boxes in great condition. Fairways and greens immaculate. This is easily one of my favorite courses in the area.

Great design

First, the course was in fine playing shape. Greens were not excessively fast, but rolled very true and were unblemished. Most teeboxes, fairways and rough were also in good playing condition to enable the golfer to make their shot. A private tournament was finishing as we teed off and the late afternoon pace was fine as smaller groups played quickly to beat the sunset.

The real draw here is the course design and layout, particularly off the tee. The architect has provided a variety of different holes to give interest as well as different ways to attack the hole. Good mix of long and short par 4s especially. At least 3 “par 4 and a half” were a par feels like a birdie. But some short par 4 where you can bomb it over trouble and have an easier look at birdie. Or lay back to avoid trouble but often face a challenge such as bunkers or reduced view of the green. I also noticed several holes where there is more room off the tee but that is somewhat hidden. The par 3s are solid but less memorable. This is a fine test of golf for daily players and I hope the owners will keep it up.

Great course at affordable rate.

The course was in great shape and the pace of play was good, unlike the last time I played there. Greens had recently been airated, but we're mostly recovered. I will play here again.
