Crystal Lake Golf & Country Club
About
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.

Poor Customer Service
I didn't get the feeling that we were wanted on the course or property. The pro shop cashier was not the most friendliest person, he literally threw my credit card back at me and my other player. I looked at him but he would not give any eye contact. Is this the accepted practice in Georgia or just here. I inches away from you and you throw my credit card at me while trying to put in on the counter. why not just hand it back to me just like I gave it to you. I was tempted to leave but the weather was just to nice.
Great course and great value
Course was in excellent shape and greens were fast
Awesome! We are happy to hear you appreciated the condition of our course. We hope to see you again this season.
Fast greens
I like the true roll the greens had. They were in excellent condition.
Thank you for the review! We are pleased to hear you felt like the greens were in excellent condition! We hope to see you again soon.
Challenging, Fun Course
Course was in very good shape. Greens were fast. Undulating fairways and rolling hills. Only complaint is that the course does not offer GPS in carts and was not available in GolfShot. With a lot of blind shots, GPS availability would be of benefit for this course.
Thank you for the feedback! We truly appreciate hearing what our golfers have to say. We hope to see you again soon.
Great Experience
I thoroughly enjoyed my round at Crystal Lake. The day I played the course wasn't crowded, making it perfect for a single. Course conditions was superb, both greens and fairways. At $25, the price was certainly right. I don't play the course often and thought it could use a couple of additional signs to indicate directions to the next hole. Aside from that, it was great.
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your recent experience at Crystal Lake. We are happy to hear you thoroughly enjoyed your round with us!
Great Golf Course and Great Value
Heard about Crystal Lake from some friends and decided to try it and glad I did - great golf course in great shape. Would highly recommend it - only slight issue is make sure you pay attention on the front nine as it is easy to get lost and play the wrong hole. I will be back - really liked this golf course
Awesome! Thank you for the positive review. We are happy to hear you will be back. See you soon!
Golfer You should go and play here more
My club was hosting some event, could be get tee time, so I choose Crystal Lake. Driving range condition was not so great, but course is in good shape. I see many smaller party than 4 somes, it make great pace of play.
Also, I recommend to have fish taco at restaurant, it was crispy and spicy flavored was very good.
Thank you for the 5 star review! We are happy to hear you enjoyed our course and the fish tacos!
Crystal Lake Golf Hampton GA
Wide fareways easy driving. Green areas very demanding. Excellent conditioning. A lot of difficult approach shots.
Thank you! We are happy to hear you had such a great experience at Crystal Lake. Come see us again soon.
Top Track
The fairways and greens were in superb shape. Would put the value of this weekend round up against any other in the Greater Atlanta Area.
Awesome! Thank you so much for the 5 star review!
Great course
Too bad that the clubhouse is not between 9 and 10 as there is very little water on the course. The clubhouse does not allow private coolers and there was only one cart girl. Bad combination as we about died of thirst. Other than that it was a great time.
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your recent experience at Crystal Lake. We hope you will come tee it up again soon.
nice course
With weather the way it was, the course was very playable even with the recent rains.
Thank you for the 5 star review! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your recent round at Crystal Lake! Come tee it up again soon, hopefully when the sun is shining!
Great Course
I recommend this course to everyone. However, you much stay in the fairway. The rough can be challenging. I found it to be a fun course if you are not one of those golfer that think you should be on the PGA and you should probably not be playing golf at all.
I was really surprised how well the course had drained considering it had been raining for 4 straight days. I only encountered two small spots that were sloppy with water. The greens were very slow.
Thank you for the 5 star review and for recommending this course to everyone! We hope to see you again soon.
Great conditions considering the rain.
This course does not pass the clubhouse at the turn therefore more beverage cart rounds should be implemented throughout the day.
Thank you for your feedback and tip! We truly appreciate hearing what our golfers have to say. Thanks for playing Crystal Lake Golf and Country Club!
Good value for the money. Very challenging.
Rough is very high. Stay in the fairway. Keep you eye on the ball. Good challenge.
Thank you for your review. Glad to hear you think Crystal Lake is a good challenge. We hope to see you again soon!
Course in good shape
Course is in the best shape I've seen it over the past couple of years. Greens recently aerated but rolled pretty true. The rough is set up championship style and will give you fits. Presents a nice challenge.
Hi bigl65! Thank you for the review! Glad to hear you think the course is in great shape too. We hope to see you again this season!
I love the layout but it's not up to standards
Crystal Lake is one of my favorite tracks. The course Has fallen off but time in my humble opinion. Crabgrass in the fairways. Course conditions left a lot to be desired. Waited behind a slow 2 some all day somebody called the pro-shop behind us to complain about the pace. Guess what happens next. The dude drives past the slow group and us to talk to the caller. Then proceeds to come back our way to tell us to pick up the pace as we wait on the tee box behind the group that is holding up the entire course. But he doesn't go speak to them because he knows them. You need to train your staff to talk to the slow players no matter who they are.
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your recent experience at Crystal Lake. We will address your complaint about the slow play. We hope you will give us another shot this season.
Nice Course
One true complaint I will make is their membership. It literally makes no sense. Pay $200 a month and play for free. Basically it would take me playing 10 times a month to come close to breaking even. The one membership more my speed is $100 a month. Not bad right? Except I have to pay $20 every time I play....I pay $25 on golf now regularly. Again I would have to play quite a bit to break even. I wish they would tempt me with a $15 fee, or $10 for the $100 a month. I would jump all over it. Cannon Gate is $130 and green fees and cart are like $15. I would completely get a membership if their rates were comparable. I just see no point in giving them a $100 AND then pay them $20 ($5 less than Golfnow) to play the course. I could skip the $100 and just book a $25 round, pay the extra $5 and play when I want. Hoping they get a more reasonable fee on the $100 a month so I can join and see the benefit. My last round I got stuck behind a very rude foursome. Not the courses fault. 4 guys in 5 carts never waived me through. I skipped hole 8 after they hit off the tee box and ALL FOUR of them looked for a lost ball in weeds 75 yards off the tee box. They saw me waiting...a single. Never once did they tell me to go ahead while their entire foursome looked for a ball. No they continued to look for 10 minutes. I finally skipped the hole and never could make it back. Again not the courses fault, just feels good to get it off my chest. Otherwise, it's my favorite new course because it's close to my house.
Thank you for the feedback and tips! We will definitely take what you said about memberships into consideration. Sorry to hear the group in front of you did not have good sportsmanship. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
The course is in great
The Course is in great condition, the green was excellent.
Awesome! Thank you for the 5 star review! Please come back for another round soon.
But for want of a bit of care...
A shame that this once outstanding place has fallen into general disrepair. I realize the aerated greens made a bit of difference, but they had not been mowed or tended to in what looked like 3-4 days. All of the attention to details that I used to love about playing there have sadly gone away.
The price of $26 reflects what you will be getting when you get there, and I'm not sure it was worth $26.
I hope they find their way back to the place they were when it first opened, I felt like I was stealing from them at $65 a few years ago.
