Awesome Owner and Value!

Owner was incredibly nice. Was very welcoming. Some courses the owners or staff are unfriendly and almost snobby that it makes the experience tense for no reason. Not here. Affordable to play and course conditions especially greens were great! Course layout is a little odd due to fairways facing each other and a full 18 course would be nice. Would definitely come back. Better than Chastain!

Great course in great condition. My only knock is the let you book late tee times knowing they’ll be closing soon after. I didn’t get to finish my round but overall I loved the course and I will be back to play it again.

Extremely Disappointed

Today was my first time ATTEMPTING to play at John A White park. The experience was terrible beginning with having to carry my clubs up two hills to a crowed clubhouse which wasn't a good sign.

No carts, and no real system of keeping order of the at least 10 Golfers standing outside waiting for carts that weren't available. Oversold, understaffed, and disorganized is the best way to describe my first experience at this golf course. My tee time was at 10:50a. About a 45 minutes later and no clear understanding how this one person was going to ensure fairness as the late carts were coming back in.

$53 and a waste of 45 minutes after my tee time I decided to leave disappointed and confused about how this golf course could be open in this condition! To top it all off. At the time of this review I still do not know how to get a refund from the online, 3rd organization that I paid to play at a golf course 10 minutes from my house.

Thoroughly enjoyable

Great track. Challenging layout but it doesn't punish you too hard if you push one off the fairway. Lots of elevation changes and expansive rolling greens. The grass was the highlight for me- I never had to hit a ball off rock hard earth or wispy grass. More groundskeepers active here than anywhere else I've played in Atlanta, and it shows. Would love to see the bathroom get fixed and some amenities more befitting the gorgeous course, but, hey, I came for the golf, and it was great. Also noticed they have a covered driving range and don't gouge prices on balls. Looking at you Bobby Jones.

I'll be back and it won't be long.

Friendly and well kept

Staff is extremely friendly, they seem to host a lot of kid programs, but they did a great job keeping the kids from obstructing play. Tee box, fairways, and greens were great.

My fav 9 hole in ATL

When you have time for a quick 9 early on a Saturday or Sunday

John A White is the place. Great for walkers but I use a cart.

They are improving here and there… give The T a shot.

No Carts available

Tee time was pushed due to lack of golf carts available. No bathrooms just prota johns. The last time I played this course it was the same issue so it was expected.

Customer service should be priority

Being accused of jumping on the course on the 5th hole without asking for details was disrespectful and demeaning… Do better my people…
