Slow slow slow
Took over 3 hours to play 9 holes! No Marshall. No courtesy to allow others to play through. Too many walking and strolling around. Will never come back.
Public course and it shows
This was my first time playing here and will probably be my last. Pros: The staff were very nice especially after I called a week later to find my lost pitching wedge! The price is low. The course is short. It is the home of First Tee of Atlanta. Cons: It is a nine hole layout so you have to play it twice, not as much variety. The tee boxes have practically no grass. The greens had major bare spots throughout which made accurate putting impossible. I got behind 2 golfers for three holes that did not let me play through so I had to skip a hole and come back and play it twice to finish the 18. There was neither a grill nor snacks. There were no logo items for purchase to remember the outing. Overall, an inexpensive nine hole public course in a big city run by the parks department. You get what you pay for. I'm not sorry I played here but I want better course conditions and amenities from my golfing experience.
Great historic golf course
Considering the time of the year and the effects of Covid 19 the course is in manageable shape! I can only see it getting better! I've been playing this course for forty plus years and I love the courses layout!
Greens are horrendous
Great layout but the course is in terrible shape. The bunkers are unplayable. Every green is beat to death. For high handicappers I recommend taking a 2 putt and heading on. The fairways have minimal grass, there is no marshall, no food or cart girl. It’s a typical municipal course, but it’s probably in the worst shape you can imagine.
The greens
The greens are about as good as a horse stall And the T boxes are dirt as well
