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.

I haven't played this course in almost a year and what a difference! The new ownership has brought this course up to a good standard with the bent grass greens being in really good shape as well as the rest of the course. The pace of play was excellent and I had forgotten how challenging the course could be. Would definitely recommend !

Always on my list.

I always try to play Crystal Lake when in the Atlanta area. Played as a single and got stuck behind a couple of pretty slow foursomes, but eventually got through them and finished in just over three hours. The greens are a little banged up, but rolling pretty true. Overall course conditions were very good. Love the layout. Play the proper tees! I am a 5 handicap, but 64 years old. Played the blue tees at about 6400 yards, and it was challenging enough. If you fix yours plus one or two on each green it will be improved the next time you come. Thanks to the Super and the staff for another enjoyable round. See you again in 8 or 9 months!

Always enjoyable

Played here several times due to a good layout and good prices. The only negative to the latest outing was the group in front who had the wrong shoes on and left every green looking like a soccer team had just held practice there. Otherwise, the course was in great condition and our games were close as we all scored well.

One of best values in Atlanta

Crystal Lake always offers great value. While course conditions are not pristine as the greens are a little slow and marked up, it, they were still acceptable, especially for the price you pay. Layout is good, with the exception of a couple gimmicky holes on the back 9. Great challenge for any skill level, and always incredible bang for your buck.

Overall Good Course

Nice challenging course in a pretty neighborhood for a good price. Friendly Staff. Greens could be better and the rough was very rough. I never could find the 150yard markers which made judging distance to the pin difficult and not enough water coolers on the course. Will play again and hope this helps to fix the negatives.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us with your feedback and 4-stars. Your comments will be shared with our staff, and we're glad to see you enjoyed your recent experience with us. Regarding our water stations, great course conditions this year have led to a tremendous uptick in our rounds (we have customers like to yourself to thank for that!) and this increase has placed a strain on some of our older practices, such as having two coolers on the course, but it has shown us our areas for improvement and we are adding coolers to the course ASAP! We look forward to having you back at Crystal Lake Golf & Country Club again soon.

This is one of my favorite courses, but the lack of drinking water coolers and concessions is terrible. It’s really not acceptable to have nothing available to drink.

Great layout, views and employees at Crystal Lake!

This course was in good condition even after two days of hard rains in the area. I was impressed with the layout which required use of most of the clubs in my bag. Two or three greens were dealing with a fungus issue, but most were pristine and large surface area overall. I loved the way that holes were designed to allow separation of golfers. Would definitely recommend this course!!
