Lots of character

Visiting the Atlanta area, I chose this course to take a friend golf and was not disappointed. Lots of character as each hole presents its own challenges. My only negative comment was that it was pretty hard & dry. I look forward to playing it during the summer with more grass and softer greens. Nevertheless, we had a good time and will definitely return.

PS The staff was very friendly and the practice areas were nice!!

Weekly tradition

Towards the end of a long week most of us know the real work begins Friday evening and golf isn’t an option on the weekends. We have kid obligations, wife to make happy, etc.

Over the last 2 months, my buddies and I are getting out Thursday afternoons and enjoying a couple stress free hours on this beautiful course. Staff here are incredible. Funny, engaging, guys you want to come up and talk to during the round. Hard quality to find at a nice course.

It’s something I recommend to all of the busy weekend dads. Get a group, pick a weekday evening 3:00-4:00 pm tee off Monday-Thursday . You’ll quickly see how much fun having this to look forward to can make a big difference in your life.

Too Expensive

I haven’t played River Pines in a few years and in the past when I have played it, I’ve always come away with wanting more. I was eager to see if things had changed for the better! I paid $52+fees and it’s just not good value for money. Upon arrival, they gave me a free complimentary bucket of balls which was a nice touch, but mats only?! I was a single and was told in the proshop I’d be playing with a threesome. Got to the tee box and the ranger said they had teed off 20 mins early. Luckily I wasn’t as busy as expected and was able to catch up to some friendly folks. Layout is OK, couple tee shots (1,6,7,10,11,15) make it hard to gauge the runout in the fairway. Greens were OK, bumpy at times, not really smooth nor very fast. For the price point I expect a little better.

I think $40 is a more fair price during the week for this track. It’s one of only a few public courses in the area so I think they take advantage of that. I’d play again if the fees were more reasonable. For $60, make the drive and play Echelon, a course always in excellent condition.

Needs some work

It’s Spring and of course It’s going to take a while before it gets green again so the fairways were very thin. There was also no aeration alert which was disappointing. They probably punched the greens two weeks ago there was a considerable amount of sand in the ball did not roll well.. It would’ve been nice to know that and I would’ve played somewhere else.
