My Experience - 1st timer

Positives: Tee boxes and fairways were great! Greens very nice. Layout good and will get better as the newly planted trees grow which will make it more challenging.

Opportunities: 1. Booking 18 holes was odd. You have to book 9 holes and then make a second booking 2-2.5 hours later on GolfNow or TeeOff to get a full 18 holes. Why not just add the option on the same booking to do 18 holes.

2. Chipping green should be a lot bigger considering there was additional space available.

3. Putting green: very small, no holes to putt into so had to use my putter cover and if others are on there it gets small/congested quick. Could definitely increase the size of putting green as well.

4. Driving range boxes were pretty rough! Not sure why they couldn’t move it 2 yards in or back to have a clean tee box.

May 24 Review

This course will be excellent in about 2 weeks. Greens were aerated recently and it’s not worth $41 to play on aerated greens. However, practice facilities are great. This place will be sweet when greens are ready to go.

Course has great layout

The course has a great layout and is well kept, but the price for the course is way too high for what you get.

Lovely City Course

If you overlook the fact that they cut down a lot of trees to reconfigure the course, it is a beauty. Really well-designed reversible course gives you twice as many looks for the same real estate. We will be back and thanks to the folks that work there. They made our visit memorable.

Great family golf

Great open fairways with tricky greens, awesome bunkers. First class amenities and Resturant / Bar. Fun 9 holes and then play it again or mix it up. Double greens with red and white pins.

Has potential

Course layout is a little confusing. Better signage will help. Greens were quick and in good shape. Looking forward to playing the course when it greens up.

Club Fitting

I just spent an hour with Paul Alcorn doing the driver fitting. A great experience. Paul is great and makes the experience informational as well as very relaxing and non-pressured to buy a club. You hit out of a building but rather than into a simulator you actually get to hit out onto the range. I cannot explain how that helped the experience as well! Would highly recommend the hour with Paul and I can get the vibe a training session would be worth it as well.

Nice course, weird setup.

It's a nicely kept course. The setup takes a little while to get used to. One thing that was frustrating was they didn't have the tee markers out, so it was really hard to gauge distances.

Fun Day

A friend and I met to walk 9. I had not played this course in 30 years, so this was a first time playing the new layout. The greens are great and the layout was a fun challenge.

Great walk around BJ 9 hole

Course is in great shape from tee to green. No rough to play out of that I found. All turf was really well maintained. The course is unique as some holes are very close together and balls are flying everywhere

Greens were pure and speedy....made for a great day of putting. Saw the beverage cart twice which was nice. If you are in Atlanta and have time for nine holes, give it a try!

The requirement to walk before noon is not desirable during excruciatingly hot summer days. Didn’t see the drink/food cart for 8 holes. The condition of the course was very good. True greens. But the overall experience was just “okay” and not particularly challenging and therefore I can only give it an average score. Golf should always be fun and challenging!

Interesting concept.

Fantastic for an urban golf course. I really liked the concept of reversible tees and double greens. And the course has all the length you need. But it’s wide open like a cow pasture. Can seem like a shooting gallery with people hitting right at you at times. Few trees and few hazards. Still good value for the price.
