Love the place
Great golf course. Tough layout fast greens. Great restaurant friendly staff. Top notch resort.
Accurate rating!!
I played this course because it has been on GolfAdvisors Best Courses in Georgia list for the past several years. It did not disappoint! It is a very long course. I played in March and the bermuda was still dormant but the greens were in great shape, hard and fast but fair. The par 3's are all difficult, long, downhill, slopes off the greens or water. I would recommend playing in May or early June before it gets too hot when the grass has turned green and staying at the resort to enjoy the amenities they offer.
Unique NW Georgia Resort
I was unaware of the unique resort that is part of the golf course. The resort has many homes in a small town setting, a spa, poo, etc.
I found the golf course on my first play to be a ton of fun. However, I found several of the holes that reside in the flatter portions of the property to be a little bland and blend together from a memorability standpoint.
I did enjoy the grouping of par 3's: the long third hole rise slightly uphill to an undulating green, the 8th is a long drop shot par 3 with a green that falls off precipitously to the back and left, the 14th is another huge drop shot par 3 with a flowing creek in front and the 17th finishes with a reverse redan green with fortifications / deep bunkering in front.
Holes I enjoyed were the 18th with the creek / pond down the left side finishing to a raised green, par 5 4th, 8th, 14th, and 17th.
It’s worth the playing experience.
Challenging and picturesque. Wonderful design/layout. Premium is on iron approach and putting. If conditions are wet, wait....“take a rain break”, the course drainage is as good as possible, it just retains water throughout!!!
Enjoyable !
Not worth what is charged. Greens are very well maintained-rest of the course is simply so so.
Again a very memorable outing!
Best greens in North Georgia!! Overall course in fantastic shape! The grounds crew does a excellent job! Well worth the price and the drive!
Keep up the good work!
Will be back!!
I’ll be a hit with my friends...
After I introduce this jewel to my friends they will love me even more! The course was perfect!
