Decent Golf for the Price

Overall, course was in good shape. Worth the money you pay, but the one big problem is pace of play. They need to either have all walkers or all riders. Took way too long to play 9 short holes

1st Time at Alfres Holmes

Enjoyed the round of golf and would like to return regularly since I am a member of the players club. My only concern is the course was very wet and soggy in places and it had not rained in quite some time. Love the practice facility!

Fairways were as thick as the rough......

You should not lose balls when you land in the middle of the fairway. I've been going for years and always like it because it was a 'ok' course for a great price... Now it's unfortunately fallen well below 'ok' and was almost unplayable.

I'll just have to spend more money elsewhere. The savings no longer outweighs the course quality.

The course is in terrible shape

This is the worst course I have ever played anywhere. The fairways are field grass that isn't mowed, the rough is tall field grass and the greens are terrible. It is cheap but in this case, you get what you pay for. Don't play this course.

disappointed

I have enjoyed Tup Holmes for several years, but yesterday was an all time low. Although the greens were in excellent condition, the fairways were extremely too high. I lost several balls in the fairway and found balls belonging to others. Considering i don't hit the fairway that often, this was very disappointing. If nothing else, inform the patrons prior to playing a round. Fair is fair!

Worst course ever!

The course was in horrible condition. It was unplayable. Would hit a far way but the grass was to high to find you ball. Will never play there again.

Going down

This course is going down so fast and it seems the company doesn't care. They do not keep it cut and the prices that they charge don't even meet the conditions.

Plus and minuses

Tup Holmes is an interesting old course a little west of Atlanta. Extremely friendly staff and golfers. But the course is not in the best condition. Tee boxes are terrible, greens vary, traps are not in good shape, but the fairways and vistas are interesting and in pretty good shape. Great value for the money and a quick round. I hope they do better and survive

The course

The fairways needed to be cut, couldn't tell where the fairway and ruff was. Some of the greens needed to be cut to sandtraps very little sand. The course needed maintenance and talking care of. Overall enjoy my round but seen the course in better condition

Not bad for the money

As a beginner, I value course within my budget. Until I really hitting the ball straight, I need a few courses that allow me the chance to play but not feel like I am in the middle of the pga tour. A.T. Holmes gives me that.

Nope

I would not come back here. The course is in very poor shape. All the greens are banged up. It is like playing in your own backyard. Go to Browns mill or north Fulton for ITP golf.

Average course

No sand in any of the bunkers.
Great value for what you pay.
Fairways are Ok.
Greens with 3 exemptions are OK
Definitely for what I pay, will continue playing this course, even if it is about 20 miles from my house.

Needs Some Work

i have played Tup many times; it has generally been a reasonable experience considering the moderate cost for a public cost. However, this year the course needs work, in light of progress made last year. The greens will be ok in month or so, and the traps were in good shape compared to other courses I've recently played in Atlanta. The fairways were really rough. Sugges this course only for the "special" $10 price (or perhaps a little more) I booked it for......

Tup Holmes

Course is in good shape. Greens show signs of aeration. Greens were slow for that reason alone. Fairways could use some care i.e #2,5,8,15.
And the rough could us some cutting too.
Overall, good golf for the price to play 18 holes.

The greens were recently aerated and sanded. Not good.

In some areas close to fairways balls were hard to find

Needs a lot of work

Would be nice if they indicated on Golf Now that the back nine was closed. In addition to that the front was not in good condition either, all of the greens are basically sand. I traveled a little distance to play here and glad I didn't invite anyone to play with me. A course I most likely will not be playing again.

Good value

Hilly course, and it was in pretty good shape. Some of the tee boxes lacked sufficient grass; use tees.
