The Chimneys Golf Course
About
The Chimneys Golf Course features 18 holes of exceptional golf. Our signature feature is the abundance of native rock found on-site, intricately hand-laid throughout the course to accent our greens, fairways, and pedestal tees. With strict attention to detail and no homes in sight, the course plays as a par 72, just shy of 6500 yards over five sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all abilities. Combined with southern, hometown charm, The Chimneys is an experience unlike any public course in north Georgia.

7th Tee Photo submitted by UGABrodel on 11/07/2016
Outstanding
Holes layouts are incredible. The course is in great shape! Definitely a good track!
Great views
Excellent course could be more affordable for seniors and veterans since it’s run by the city since tax payers are paying tax dollars, would play it again
Fun Course
This course has a good mixture of short and long holes. If you are on your game you can score. Very fair. Excellent conditions. New Bermuda greens are rolling well. Good lies in fairways and rough is not bad. Several elevation changes from the tee box are exciting but not difficult. Look forward to playing there again soon.
Beautiful Day, Beautiful Course
Played by myself on a beautiful spring day. Did not wait on a shot until the 7th hole. The course was stacked from there on, but finished in 3 1/2 hours. Greens were beautiful and firm, but would hold a good approach. Very playable course. Mixture of short and long holes. Good range and short game practice area. No grill room, but the beverage cart came by several times. Look forward to coming back soon.
Very fun course
This course was a breath of fresh air. Made for an incredibly fun round with excellent course design. Only complaint was lack of food during the turn. Make sure to bring a snack.
slow play
The last 3 times I have played was extremely slow. The last time I paid for 18 holes and quit after 12 due to the pace of play. The course needs a marshal to keep the pace appropriate. There were several times when an entire hole was open between groups and golfers not playing the right tees contributes to the problem. A nice course but for the money they charge the pace of play can be improved.
Chimneys 2.0 is a winner
This course has always been a favorite of mine. The new greens are fantastic. I will definitely be coming back here again and again this spring and summer.
10/10
Course is always in great shape. I can’t wait for summer and it to green up! It is going to look awesome.
The course was in great shape. I enjoy playing this course every time I come out here. The staff is friendly and the pace of play is generally good. I would recommend this course to anyone who hadn’t played it
The new greens are good
They put in new greens last year and they are holding up well.. pretty firm
I heard the super does not want to have divots filled because sometimes they are overfilled. Hurts the cutters but there is no grass cutting now and any excess sand will be gone with rain soon.
Fairways are pretty tight for lies but it is a course for people who are a bit wild. I almost got hit on 18 green from an approach to 13th which was 70 yards away
Thanks to the people who let us through and realized they were playing slow
Pretty good for Feb - only one compliant
Course was surprisingly damp to me
Greens were excellent and very quick
Amazing for early season
The course has many easy holes and about 6 quite hard holes.
I asked some greens staff why they had no dirt for the carts to fill divots
No explanation but with the course damp we digging up the course with little ability to repair the damage.. We want to take care of the course but really unacceptable to not have the carts fully prepared and have places to replenish around the course
Crystal lakes last week had excellent sand to replace divots. ... Thought it was just common sense

I love this golf course
Very good condition fairway and greens
I will recommend. My friend
Love this course.
Wish it was a bit closer, but worth the drive for me.
Difficult first time.
Was able to play as one of my Golf Now Free rounds. Can never beat free! Greens were excellent, would like to go back in the summer. Had a tough round as was stressed the whole time. Started with my GPS not working hence was difficult to find. Then having a 12pm tee time did not help. Hope to return in the summer as it was really wet and sloppy.
