Towne Lake Hills Golf Club
About
Carved from acres of wooded countryside in Woodstock, Towne Lake Hills Golf Club takes advantage of the rolling green hills. The dramatic elevation changes make it difficult to find an even lie anywhere on the course. Arthur Hills, the course's designer, incorporated a variety of challenges that makes each hole unique including a deft smattering of sand bunkers. The golf course depends as heavily on course management and strategy as it does on shot-making skills. It is a challenge to say the least, but it's fair. There are also four sets of tees that make it more approachable. One of the most memorable holes is the fifth. This par 5 presents an interesting risk-reward opportunity that will make you think. Towne Lake Hills G.C. boasts consistently good course conditions and idyllic scenery that make the round even more enjoyable.

The best shot of my life. My first shot on hole 11. 308 yard par 4. Photo submitted by u000007718501 on 11/12/2013
Great Layout
Love the layout. Got a level of toughness a beginner need not try. Has big beautiful greens that a soft to your aproach shot, but fast to your putt. Weekday senior and midday rates a bit pricy, but nice course nevertheless.
Always fun
I always enjoy playing here, I love the layout of the course and it loves me back. Course was in really good shape especially after all the rain we've recently had.
Great local course!
It's a great local course. Don't tell anyone if you find a flat spot or they will put a hill on it. It's called town lake HILLS for a reason. Hills make it fun for myself though.
need to do some work
Normally nice course but rough was 5 to 7 inches long the cart path has become very bumpy enough to be popping extra balls out of the bag and trees needed to be limbed up , greens where pretty nice though and fairway has seen better days
Best condition this season
Greens and fairways in great shape. The greens rolled true and fast, but held good approaches.
Good round
The course was in great shape. I enjoy playing this course.
Nice Course, But A Terribly Long Round
Played here before about ten years ago, and was looking forward to playing here again. Course has a lot of elevation changes, forced carries, and undulating greens. Was paired with three other golfers. One excellent player, another pretty good, and the last player struggled a bit. Was a pleasant foursome, but the time it took to play on a beautiful sunny day was ridiculous. FIVE HOURS and TWENTY MINUTES after teeing off we finally finished. I can understand if it was cart path only, but a round of golf should NEVER take this long. Also NEVER saw a Marshall all day to speed up play. Was playing pretty good until about halfway through the back nine when we all started losing our concentration due to the long waits. Very good golf course, and for sure recommended, but I will NEVER play here again on a weekend. I live 25 minutes from the course, and I was gone for EIGHT hours before I got back home. The only course I would spend this much time on would be Augusta National, and I guarantee you that you would not be allowed to play there In five hours and 20 minutes.
One of my favorite courses, just expect to wait
I play here all the time and I love the golf course, lots of hazards and tough tee shots. Unless you tee off before 10:30 it will take 5 hours to play.
Lots of doglegs
A fair test, but conditions of the greens were just okay (does anyone fix ball marks anymore?).
Felt a bit gimmicky, with lots of doglegs, many uneven lies in the fairway, etc.
Great course
This is a great course. The fairways and greens are well kept and the staff is friendly. There are no cheap holes on this course. It will challenge all levels of players. If you can wait till the afternoon there discounted rates. Pace is play is usually good as most of the players are pretty good.
2nd cut way too long
The greens had a lot of ball marks which is understandable because of all the rain we had the previous week, so the greens were really soft.
But the 2nd cut on the fairways were cut way too long and were very thick. We were spending way too much time looking for our balls on the 2nd cut. And it was really hard to hit out of it even with hybrids.
We have tournament coming up on this course. Hopefully they cut the 2nd cut a little shorter.
Fun course, great value.
Really fun course, there are a few tight fairways and holes where you need to hit a landing zone. The course is not very long so when you hit a good shot off the tee you are rewarded, when you dont, it can turn into a tough hole. But that makes for a fun round.
Great Course at a Great Value
This is a well maintained, well managed course. I have played here a dozen or so times and is by far one of my favorite public plays in metro Atlanta. Pace of play is consistently good, course is always in fantastic shape (however, I do wish they would let us know on the website when the greens are aerated) and it is overall a fun place to play golf.
The design of the course is pretty forgiving. Many fairways funnel to the center and several of the greens have backboards for errant approaches. There are some tight dogleg tee shots, so your ability to shape shots will be tested. No.18 is par-5 with a no-line of sight uphill second shot. Coming in is a challenge.
Nice course, bumpy ride
Course was in good condition overall except for many of the greens were a little abused from lack of ball repair damage. Extremely challenging for a higher handicapper with several blind holes and long carries. Pin placement that day made it extremely tight around the pin. What was really disappointing was the entire cart path. It is in need of lots of repair due to uneven settling of the concrete sections which has caused severe bumps. not a pleasant ride at all so for that I wouldn't recommend it.
Great track!
This track is so much fun to play, challenging enough yet forgiving. Greens are always in great shape.
Very Consistent Course
This will be my second year in a row as a member here. I am one of those golfers that likes variety. If I could play a different course every week of the year, I would to keep my interest up. One reason I love this course so much is that no two holes are alike. Every hole is so unique and I have played few "local" courses that have the variety that Towne Lake has (others...The Frog, Woodmont, Barnsley Gardens, Cobblestone). The difference is those other courses want to charge 65$, 75$, 65$, & 85$ respectively. There is no other course in the greater Atlanta area that is consistently in excellent shape, good pace of play, and the value for the money as Towne Lake. In my opinion the best 4 semi-private courses in the greater Atlanta area for the value are: Towne Lake Hills, The Frog, Crystal Lake, and Cherokee Run.
Hot time at Towne Lake
Teed off at noon on a steamy 94 degree Woodstock Saturday. Got stuck behind a foursome that slowed play for the front nine, but still played in just over 4 hours. A nice variety of holes. In nice shape considering the heat. Greens were soft, slow and somewhat inconsistent. Lots of unrepaired ball marks. That said, a fun course...I will be back!
TOWNE LAKE GOLF
GOOD FUN COURSE...CHALLENGING BUT FAIR...NICE STAFF....FAIRWAYS AND GREENS IN GREAT SHAPE
This course requires straight tee shots.
Course was in great shape. Greens rolled true and fairways were in good condition. This course will reward good straight tee shots, but you will pay for anything that goes left or right.
A Delightful Course with Challenges
Upside of this course was the very genuinely friendly greeting, accommodating staff and a golf course in very good condition. Greens were a little slow but were well maintained. Hills on fairways make familiarity with the course a necessity.
Downside of this course was that we played on a cart path only day after several days of rain. While we understand the need, it made for a long walk up and down many steep hills. Good exercise!
