Towne Lake Hills Golf Club

Towne Lake is a solid metro Atlanta course. It challenges your course management and distance control. However, the pace of play can back up. The marshals are typically good for encouraging slow play to pick up pace.

Unbelievably bad experience at this facility. Just for perspectives. I’ve been an avid golfer for the last 6 years, playing hundreds of rounds across dozens of courses in different states and countries, and I have never had an experience like this.

So here is what happened:

My 9 year old son and I live out of state, but we were in GA for the Braves games. I booked at Towne Lake Hills online as a single for a Saturday afternoon tee time. The plan was that I was going to play and my son would ride in the cart with me. When we checked in, I was told that they did not allow riders on the weekend because of not having enough carts….. there were at least 15 unclaimed carts in the cart prep area. I asked if I could pay a rider fee and was told no. I asked if this policy was posted online when I booked and was told that it was not. I asked how I was supposed to know this and was not given an answer. I asked about getting my tee time deposit back and was told to call the online booking company (golf now). I asked to speak to the manager, and I was told that the 21 year old kid that I was speaking to was the manager. So I had no other choice but to leave. It’s now too late to get a tee time anywhere else in the Atlanta area.

This was the most absurd experience I’ve ever had a at golf course

Our club was closed; so we used the golf now app to find a place to play. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality and condition of the course. We missed the warm up because we didn’t know where to get the balls. Don’t worry when the practice putting green is not in good shape. The fairways and greens were in great shape and the starter and marshal were present and got things off to a good start. My cart didn’t have much in terms of braking power, but the engine drag was a sufficient help in stopping. The sand was a bit sparse in the bunkers and it’s a very hilly undulating course. It was a challenging but fun day. They put two guys with us and both Fred (a regular at Town Hills) and Leroy (from Bradshaw) were fun to play with. A good time was had by all. Thanks Town Hills staff.

Well maintained, greens were fast even though they still had some sand. Fairways in good shape.

Tee boxes were in poor condition. Although the greens were in very good condition they were slow. The front nine has some really poorly designed holes.

Solid course, layout is hilly making it a touch difficult. Still fun though!

This has become my favorite course. It’s well-maintained and the staff is very friendly.

Not bad decent. Reasonable.. Staff mostly kind and friendly.. Thanks. gettting rare in today's world.. Many seem to be trigger happy and on edge.. Relax people you will live longer.

Great course that allows you to use every club in the bag.

Course was in great shape. Soft greens were nice to hit into. I wish more people would repair their ball marks; greens would be even better. Matts on the range and no beverage cart on the course are the only complaints.

Course layout and distances make it a challenge course where the challenge makes the round fun. It'll test ability to plan shots and shot placement without taking the fun out of golf. Pace of play was solid for my round until the 18th hole. Waited for 30 minutes just to tee off on 18. Possibly because of the layout of the hole requiring a "hero" shot for the green in 2 or a lay-up then approaching an elevated green for GIR. Rest of the course was open. Tee boxes were rough during my round though. Very damaged and in dire need of a cut.
