Only back nine was open

Found out after getting cart key that only back nine was open and had to play twice for the 18 holes. Should have stated on GolfNow.

Course is in great shape. The cart paths have been replaced.

I was shocked at the new improved condition of the course. It’s the hidden gem.

Great Renovations To The Course But Not Communication On Golf Cart Issue

I live about 10 minutes down the road from Tupp Holmes and have played it many times. This was my second time playing the renovated front 9 and everything looks great. Cart paths, greens, tee boxes, fairways all looked great.

My father drove all the way from Roswell to play with me and when we got there the person at the front desk said “I hope you brought your walking shoes”. Apparently the charging station broke for the golf carts, but I received no email, text, or call to communicate this to me. The man at the desk said a notification did go out and I must have been new in their system. I have played the course probably 25+ times and my email address was in fact already in the system when he checked. So it would make no sense for me not to have received a communication.

I would recommend this course to my friends in the area, but I would not to those further away because of what surprises they may have to deal with upon arrival due to the lack of communication. (I also played the course a couple weeks prior with my father-in-law and I booked what appeared to be a full 18 hole round. Only to get to the course and be notified that only the front 9 was open.). So this is not the first time this has been a lack of communication.

Course not ready...

Booked this unknowing that during the week apparently they only do 9 holes played 2x to make a full 18 holes. You either play front or back 9 depending on the day. This was not stated anywhere even though they said it was. For the price it definatly was not worth it. Hopefully they finish the work so they can offer the full 18 hole experience as they advertised.

Bunch of hills and clay.

They didn't say anything about having to play the front 9 twice for 18...course is in terrible shape. Irrigation trenches on every hole...rocks in the tee boxes...tee locations are like way off due to whatever reason. Leveling sand all over greens. Grass uncut in many areas...no water feautures..No driving range. When you park it's hard to tell where the shop is just take a guess and go up the stairs. Won't be returning.

Coming soon.,,

The front 9 is only available, but they've made great improvements. Greens were in terrific shape compared to old, fairways and tee boxes have come miles from where they were. Some tee boxes will be moved to more permanent locations once finished hopefully, they're not all totally level, but besides that it will be great once the back 9 opens.

Payed for 18, only have 9

My coworker and I paid for a round of 18 and after receiving the cart and started the round, a staff member told us that the back 9 isn’t open but no one said the when checking in. So my plan was to play the front 9 twice which is no problem, they told me we couldn’t do that because they wanted to close early. 10/10 WOULD NEVER GO BACK.

Improved.

This is a challenging layout for skilled players. Several dog legs make shot shaping a must. Up hill and down hill shots are present and knowing how to level them out is a skill you need to possess. Numbers nine and seventeen are signature holes and well worth experencing. DO NOT miss playing this course if you live or are visiting Atlanta.

Back 9 Closed

FYI - Be aware that the back 9 is currently closed. The expectation is that you play the front 9 twice. Even without late-morning tee times being sold, it gets super backed up once you make the "turn". My friends and I ended up walking off the course after 9.

It's still a good value for the money, but can't justify a 5+ hour round.

Reopened

I played 04/22/24. I paid for 18 holes, but unfortunately only the front nine was open. There was no mention of this anywhere when booking the tee time and coming around the turn there were 3 groups waiting to tee off. The course was reopened after completing a new cart path, Club house renovations, water system throughout the course, and getting new (much needed) golf carts. There were no updates to tee boxes, greens, etc. (tee boxes aren’t ideal).

Aside from all of that… this is a great local course with some

Interesting hole layouts and elevation changes. A short course. The greens were decent, rough was tall, fairways were cut. They were working on the back 9 and it appears that it will open soon. I’ll be back - can’t beat the price.

Poor management

All this course needs is some better management and groundskeeping & id be willing to pay $45/ round. They have 12 working golf carts currently.
