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 place, great people

Fantastic track and really has some teeth from the back tees, especially 4, 5, and 6 (I think, or it's 5, 6, 7). But, there are plenty of other holes that you can make birdie on.

Great clubhouse staff checking in. CJ was exceptionally nice and helpful after having a discussion about yardage markers and the yardage book on the course. Good service and friendliness at the grille as well. Always appreciated when feeling a little hot and tired after a round. Very nice place to play.

A new find

First time playing and was very pleased. Course was in good shape for the time of year. Greens had been aerated a few weeks prior and not completely recovered but rolled true. Course was very challenging, especially for a first timer not knowing where all of the hazards are. I will be back when it greens up and there is more grass.

Work being done on the course

The course has a lot of trees down. I did not ask why but it may be due to the weather this winter. It did not effect the playing area. Look forward to playing it in warmer weather.

Decent course

Course was decent. A little rough even though off season. No food service and limited drink offerIngs. Fairways were mostly mud. Once grass grows in I'm sure I'll give it 4 stars. Right now, just 3. I like the layout.

One of the best on the southside

Course is in good condition, some greens have a couple of bad spots but overall in nice condition. Course is an out and back so be aware of this and maybe take some snacks with you.

Good value for the price

The greens have always been great, faster than average and smooth. I like the layout, it's tough, and challenging for a scratch golfer.

One of the best South of Atlanta

Love this course. I play there every time I'm back in Atlanta. Beautiful course, creative holes. It is challenging. Well placed bunkers, some water hazards to contend with, and will take accuracy to score well. In great shape, considering its winter and has been raining recently. Greens were a big surprise, running a lot faster than anticipated. All in all, great course to play.

Great Layout, excellent fairways

Really enjoyed playing this course - first time but not last! Scenic, strategic hazards, challenging distance and hole locations. Definitely NOT a walking course! Fairways in very nice shape especially for Winter play; roughs are fairly thick but still playable. Greens were good but not great - should shape up nicely for the Spring. Midday/midweek play was quiet...just over 3 hour round for single. Most fairways are pretty forgiving but plenty of fairway and greenside bunkers to keep you making shots.

Great South of Atlanta Option

I arrived on a Sunday afternoon and grabbed some lunch at the Grill which was very nice. I finished in under 4 hours. The range, greens, fairways were well maintained. The fairways were also pretty wide. There were a good mixture of elevation changes, sand and grass bunkers. I wouldn't recommend as a walking course because some of the holes are some distance apart from each other.

opened to the public at a decent rate. First time playing since they changed management and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the course. Couple that with an excellent layout, always an enjoyable round.

Quick Round of Golf

I played 18 holes in 2:40. A threesome was kind enough to let me play through, other than that it was wide open on a Saturday 12:30 tee time (college football). The course is in fair condition but has a great layout. The greens are a box of chocolates, not sure what you will get. Then again, I am use to the greens in AZ. CJ who runs the golf side is great. I have only played the course a couple times and he knows who I am.

Great Layout

Nice track. Design allows for challenge to all skill levels. Choose the correct tee box for your skill level and you'll have a very enjoyable round. Rating could be higher but greens show some stress. Could be from recent aeration, could be from summer being hard on the bent grass. Overall, good layout/facility/driving range/bunkers, and fairways. Average greens rolling a little slow. Will definitely return and I would recommend to all to visit Crystal Lake for yourselves.
