great value

This was great course to play, especially for the money. Very fun course. Forces you to be accurate and employ good course management.a couple of the greens could have been blown off. Littered with natural debris from trees making them hard to putt on.

Great history!

Wide and long course with some challenging par-3's. {ar 5's can be reached in 2 shots. It still has winter fairways and fast greens.

Great place to play with discount. Hopefully with some watering and some love, the place is as green as other GA courses.

Would definitely come back.

Challenging and a fun course to play!

If some attention and money were given to this course (rocky to dirt fairways), this would be the gem that would rival North Fulton and even Browns Mille.

Golfer friendly layout, nice for all levels of the game.

Played this course day after it rained, wasn't dried out but wasn't soggy either, well drained. Wide fairways, nice sized greens very open layout, most par 4's your on in two. Holes 9 and 17 are drop elevation holes, great view, fun holes.

Had fun

The layout on this course is really well designed and was probably a gem way back in the day. Definitely one of the coolest designs I played in a long while, unfortunately the course is in pretty rough shape, greens are ok though. Overall it was fun for the price.

You get what you pay for

I think Ron (Pro Shop) is the only guy that works there, he is great. The course doesn't really have any fairways, bunkers always seem to have an "under repair" type condition, pace of play is slow and unmonitored by what appears to be a non-existent starter. You can generally find some pretty cheap tee times and so it's worth playing every now and then.

Tip Holmes is horrible

The staff was not concerned about customers. The snack bar was empty, and the grounds were poorly maintained. Keep your $20 or pay more elsewhere.

Alfred Tup Holmes

Had a great day at this course. It was challenging to a degree but pace of play was excellent. The layout is wide open and second shot recovery was very good. Precise iron play is needed as greens are not that big. Greens were also in consistent. I will be back.

This course has excellent relatively fast greens

Although very close to Atlanta down town, it is in a quiet place neighborhood away from the hurry-burry of the city. The fairway grass needs attention.

Greens were better that Lanier Golf Club

For the price I paid it was a good run. The greens put true but that was about it. Several tee boxes were sand pits. Cart paths were like off road very challenging on golf cart. Rough very rough many balls lost on decent shots. Fall leaves a problem but like that everywhere this time of year. Tup needs some Bobby Jones attention.

Nice long coures for being within Atlanta city limits.

Very hilly complimented with nice views. Most fairways were wide open allowing for errors off the tee. Granted it's Autumn, there is no excuse for leaves to be on the green. Instead of removing massive amounts of leaves between my ball on the green and the hole, I gave myself a stroke because my ball ran through the leaves and was driven off course. I played from the back and some of the tee boxes were not marked. One tee I came across was lined with bottles. Funny. I'll be back. I'm sure in the summertime the course is very green which makes it a beautiful course to play. But for now, if you can stand the yellow grass, go have fun.

Alred "Tup" Holmes, Veteran's Day 11/12/12

This course has a beautiful design/beautiful layout. #9 and #17 are the signature holes in my opinion. The par 5's are very short, as are most of the par 4's. The greens are slow. Lots of leaves on the course, and this combined with the browning/wintering of the grass makes it very difficult to locate your ball. I saw the maintenance staff using blowers on a fairway bunker on #3 yet some of the green were absolutely covered in leaves (#10, #18). Overall a good bargain for the money, most of the greens were in pretty good shape although slower than most courses.

The course is fun to play.The greens are in great shape. At 6100 yards, it is challenging from the tips.

ATH is a good value for the money. The greens are in great shape and they can be pretty challenging. Ive played it a couple of times and enjoyed it a little more each time. (mainly because I shot a 37 on the back nine after a brutal 44 on the front).Twilight on Saturdays seems to move the fastest, but whatever time you go, Im sure you will enjoy it.

some nice holes with elevation changes. greens in good shape, smooth and fairly fast.

look for price deals. i played for $12.00. short, reachable par 5's, good par 3's. keep it in the fairway as their are some rough, rocky, bare patches and little creeks out there.
