Faded Jewel

This is the first time that I played St. Marlo in probably a decade and I (and the two other guys that I was playing with) wasn’t impressed. I consider costs in my ratings and the course conditions were similar to a $40 course. The greens were showing a lot of wear, the fairways were bumpy, sand traps were very firm with fuzz coming out in some places, and the golf cart paths were in really rough shape. You have to pay $8 for a small bucket of balls after you have already paid a chunk of change for the round. Getting into St. Marlo was also an arduous process. Cars were stacked into the road for 10 minutes while the security guard at the front requires an ID for every car rather than simply checking a tee sheet. The staff was friendly and helpful. That said, we won’t return. The sad part about this is that this course was once beautiful and well maintained. It was a true gem in the area. Now it is in about the same shape as other Gwinnett municipal courses.

Always a good time

St marlo is a nice course that’s greening up and in good condition. With a couple weeks it will be in peak shape. They are putting money into the course and have improved the bunkers and cart paths! They have replaced a significant part of the cart paths and look to be doing more, a big thank you.

I will certainly be back as the layout is always challenging and a fun course to play. Staff was super friendly and I look forward to another round.

Bit too challenging for my game, many tee shots you have to be perfect to get to very limited landing areas with hilly terrain. Can end up in trouble off tee easily.

Enjoyed the Par 3’s.

Greens were in excellent shape, fairways & around greens cut too low for my liking. Tee boxes needed some work, but you could work around that issue.

Awesome Public Course

First time playing in GA. Great layout and playing conditions. Probably the best sand I’ve played on, although I did a good job staying out of the bunkers.

No Walking at St Marlo

Will not return because St Marlo does NOT allow non-members to walk any day at any time.

Golf is best played walking and fortunately there are MANY other great options in north Atlanta for nice courses to walk!

Great course!

St. Marlo is a beautiful course. Great lay out and greens. Was cart path only and the course was in great shape after a monsoon the day before. Pace of play could have been better. Would play here again in a heartbeat.

Fun to play

I’ve played St. Marlo several time over the years and I’m always impressed by the course. It can be challenging but good shots are rewarded. Even though I t rained hard the day before I played, the course had drained well. The greens were a little slow and showed signs of being punched. Fairways were nice although the tee boxes were in need of repair. Pace of play was slow for an early Sunday morning tee time. However, a in all it’s a great place to play golf.
