Can’t Wait

Played about 3-4 days after HEAVY rains. And the course had some soggy spots but so much less than I was expecting. I can’t wait to see the course under its best conditions. It was great!

Exhausted ROUND

It was the most disappointing and exhausting round I have ever played in my LIFE and I have been pretending to play golf for 60 years. See the reasons listed next

1. The course is hard enough without having ALL holes being cart path only with the extreme hilly landscape. Only maybe 4 or 5 holes needed to be cart path only. All of my threesome almost passed out as we finished play

2. The FROG apparently does not want SENIOR(over 80) golfers to play. 340 and more yards for par fours is unrealistic to record a par or even a bogey. It is not ENJOYABLE shooting over 100 and that was our highest score being double bogey to speed up play. If we had played all holes out, we would have scored over 150. At home our par fours are 300 or less yards allowing us a chance to make a par and maybe one

birdie. Our average rounds are from 75-85. That is IMPOSSIBLE from the forward tees at the FROG.

I will give the course maintenance personnel credit for improving the playing conditions at the FROG. The last time we played 3-4 years ago - the course was in horrible shape with weeds growing in the sand traps and tee boxes being sand and the grass in the fairways being nonexistent

If the course will add some more realistic tee box distances for SENIORS - we will play the FROG again - otherwise we will NEVER BE BACK

Good course for the cost

Enjoy playing the course. Friend playing here for the first time says we'll have to play the Frog again. Fairways in ok condition, but they could use some work. Will come back again if offered GolfNow value price. I'd say this is a good $30ish course but wouldn't want to play more.

Great golf course

If ever I go back to Atlanta I will 100% play The Frog again. The layout was superb and it was so quiet and still. The greens had recently been punched but they were still playable. All in all a great course and one that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

The Georgian “The Frog” is a premiere golf course that I’ve played dozens of times and has always been know for immaculate conditions. I played last Friday and although I know winter months are always tough on a course I was truly sad and shock to see a course I love and played so much on look in such bad shape. All the fairway and green side bunkers had no sand and lots of weeds green side not tented to. Tee boxes were okay shape but the course always use to overseer them with rye in the winter and this wasn’t the case. The cost to play this course was extremely high and over priced for very disappointing conditions and I hate to see this play go downhill!

Great Course

Great challenging course. Some fairway bunkers need work. New owners seem to be making progress. Not as good as it was 5 years ago but I’ll be playing it more.

The Frog 2025

The condition of the course has really gone down in the last 5 years. It had a great reputation for a long time but the course looks nothing like the pictures. The bunkers are in horrible condition.

The Faxio layout is great but someone dropped the ball on maintaining the course. It is so sad.

Should have played elsewhere for the price...

The Frog once was a great course, but has steadily declined over the past several years. The cart path has some serious concrete issues that need to be addressed. The staff was friendlier than previous visits to this course so that is a plus! Me and my guys couldn't get a tee time at my home course due to frost so we opted to play The Frog since it had a tee time before noon. The cost is about $20 higher than it should be for this course. The bunkers are pathetic and some don't even have sand in them. Tee boxes are OK as are the greens and fairways, but no where near as good as they were 3-5 years ago. Best part of the round was the EZGo Elite electric golf carts. Every golf course should get these carts.

Unfortunate decline

I know this course has been through its ups and downs throughout the years, but was very disappointed to see how far it’s digressed. Seems that outside of cutting the greens, there’s not much additional maintenance that exists throughout the course. I’ll attribute this to lack of funding, as it seems it’s just in a mode of keeping the lights on. Hope it finds a way to get back to its old self.

After Reading Reviews: Much Better!

After reading GolfNow reviews, was going to skip this course. After talking to a local, decided to give it a shot. Glad I did! By far the best course I played in the area for the week. Great condition (even for winter), nice layout, excellent pace-of-play. Wonderful staff. I can see why Golf magazine rated this as a top course in the state.

Froggy still good.

Have not played here in 10 years. I have always liked the layout. Fairways and tees dormant and some wet areas in low spots. Greens were solid and rolled well. Diabolical pin placement on 9. :) People please fix your ballmarks and fill your divots. Its not that difficult. For early Feb the course was in decent shape. I hope to be back again later this year when it greens up.

This course is very player friendly

We played this course a couple of days after a snowstorm . It is cart path only which made it a little harder for an old man. It was a fun and enjoyable day , lots of wildlife.

Been awhile

Haven't played here in a few years. The course was in good shape for the time of year. One green had a lot of ball marks but others were good. The waste bunkers/areas look like they have not been maintained but regular bunkers were ok. Little pricey for the product but a good value with hotdeal

NEW YEAR ROUND

It was great to get out on a cold sunny day 46 degrees. Course and greens were in great shape considering it is January. I can't wait to come back in the spring.

Play it at a discount if you can

Starting this review off by stating the obvious for those that have played in the past or play this course now. The Frog definitely isn’t what it used to be condition wise. The fairways were cut and the greens were solid. However, the areas off the fairway and bunkers need some serious attention. Bunkers are full of weeds. The fairway bunker on #10 (pictured) was half full of water. I understand rain happens but we hadnt seen rain for a couple of days prior. There were quite a few bunkers that could use more attention than what they appeared to be receiving. I don’t expect winter golf to be spring golf but man for 65-70 dollars a round I really wish they would get the conditions back to somewhat respectable. It is kind of embarrassing that they would be ok with how the conditions are at the moment.

No premade lunch items at the grill so make sure to call ahead after hole 8.

Pace of play was decent but we did get sort of backed up on around hole 13 or 14. Group of 5 ahead of us playing in hoodies, jeans, and work boots,

It really is sad what this place has become. C’mon Frog get it together..
