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.

Nice course

Great customer service at sign in. Easy to use range. Course in good condition overall. Not a difficult layout from white tees and greens not tricky but a bit slow and not consistent speeds. Traps need material added. A bit confusing routes from hole to hole and could use better signage. Cart beverage staff friendly and clubhouse food and service was very good! Will be back again!

It has been several years or more since I played this course. The first thing I recognized was the poor condition of the greens. Very spotty on every hole. Disapponting. Does not appear there is much interest in keeping the course up for the patrons. Hope they make an efforr to get it right.

Greens are horrible!

The course overall is challenging and fun. But the greens are riddled with weeds and disease. Can't believe they charge full greens fees!

Needs a little upkeep

Areas on the course are being neglected, not sure if it's due to covid or lack of funding, but even the bridges need work with wood rotten on cart path, driving range looked like a cow pasture. The property seems a little run down and just needs some maintenance.

Thanks

David

Rough shape

Played here approx two months ago and it is was in immaculate shape. This time they had just aerated and many of the greens seemed diseased. At least one of the sand traps were hard packed dirt and over all many were in poor shape. I love this course and the layout but was really disappointed this visit.

Very unique

The grassy buckets are very unique. They. present some challenges if you don’t hit the fairway with your drive. The par 3’s have a wide range of distances so you don’t just use a pitching wedge. Overall, a very interesting course and I will definitely play it again.

Golf day

The course is good and well maintained however, it lacks drinking water and there were no ball washing stations.

To top it off, the restaurant closed at 4pm so I just missed it as I finished at 410 pm.

That was disappointing as I was in desperate need of a beer.
