This course has good features.

We play this course at least once a week, they are losing the greens. Crabgrass growing in the greens, heats spots.

Terrible greens

I rated it so low because the greens are terrible that's why I would not recommend it to anyone right now putting is not very true .the greens are very shaggy with weeds all over along with dead grass . One green was covered in goose terds dont know what happened but usually the greens are great.will not be going back anytime soon

GREES IN BAD SHAPE

Just wish Golf Now and the courses would coordinate when the greens have just been punched. I would love the opportunity to chose another course in the event of this. It's funny because the guy in clubhouse didn't mention it. I knew nothing about it until the STARTER told me. Beautiful day, fun round, ( first time here) just feeling like the course and the GOLF Now should give a heads up, especially if I book a tee time after hours.

Unusually Very Poor Conditions

I will start off by saying Lake Spivey is (was) one of my favorite courses in Atlanta. The course is usually in fantastic shape and the price to play is very reasonable. However, I was deeply disappointed in the condition of the course when I played it a few days ago. I only play courses that are rated 4-stars and above. Lake Spivey not only had their course rated as 4-stars, they never mentioned that the course was being aerated. And they charged the regular price to play the same 9 holes twice. I can tell you I have “never” played on greens in that bad of shape (aerated plugs, sand, lots of weeds, and most greens had large burnt-out mud spots. The 9 holes we were forced to play should have been closed. I’m now expecting the greens to recover anytime soon so my advice is to avoid playing here until you are sure what the green conditions are.

Greens Under Repair

Played Spivey a lot over the years, like the layout and generally can navigate from the blues in 3 hours. I noticed the greens were in trouble a month ago. Played the last round with the back nine closed for repair. And the front nine jammed with a Elder statesman tournament. Brutal paste of play! Gave up after eight holes.

Liked the course, but the greens seem to have been infected with a disease of some sort. Putting was not true.
