Candler Park Golf Course

Temps were in the mid- to high-40s. Not too crowded. Course conditions aren't top-notch, but overall, the course was a good test for a 12-year old mid-beginner. It was a pretty challenging walk for a 74 year old, overweight granddad.

Main point...we had fun

Took my sons for a quick round of golf. The course is short and a mix of par 3’s and short Par 4’s. Not in great shape overall, I think due to winter but also due to lack of investment in course care. But for the money and for a chance to play a quick, easy, fun round with family or friends, the course is fine. Don’t expect a lot, just enjoy the reasonable rate and the chance to walk a metro Atlanta municipal course. I enjoyed it and would play again, but I don’t recommend going with high expectations for the challenge or the greens, just enjoy the day.

Great folks. The course is exactly what you expect.

Don’t expect anything this course isn’t, but it is a good quick 9. Half the greens are great and half the greens are dodgy. Watch out for some sandy tee boxes but the fairways and rough are all well maintained. For $15 in the middle of Atlanta it’s a good course to keep the rust off.

I have been playing here off and on for 20+ years. Really a gem in Atlanta. Course conditions are not always great (hole #3) however its a fun course for an afternoon walk and golf. Always enjoy playing here. It is what it is for the money. I appreciate the ability to have such a course in Atlanta!!

Definitely my home course and represents golf in the city but the real ATL

Great course for learning with my 14 year old daughter. We will be back.

Looking to play a quick 9 on Sunday. Golf Course has a nice layout for an executive course. Course shape is not the best. Tee boxes are well used, fairways are not mowed, and greens are super slow. Otherwise a nice course to practice some shot making instead of visiting a range.

This course needs a lot of work but doubt it will get it.

Love playing here. The layout is great, every hole is interesting and fun. Scale back your expectations for course conditions because the city doesn’t show the course much love. Even so, the staff is fantastic and the value is ridiculous.

Overall give the course 3 stars just in reference to what I would think is a 5 star course. The course is a great value for the money, great place to practice your game.

This is a great location. The course could use more manicuring, but it’s a public course maintained by the city.

When we walked in, we were greeted very nicely by Soloman. He was so helpful, made sure we understood the course, and set us up with a cart to pull our bags with. It would be great if this course could buy new carts for use. They kind of seem like they will fall apart easily, they look pretty old and abused. This is a great course for practice, which is what I was looking for .

You can hit golf balls here and they’ve placed 9 holes in random places (mostly on the greens). You can tee up from the sand traps also which is cool. They call them tee boxes here.

No clue why COA has to make their most accessible golf course the worst maintained one of the lot.

Maybe you’ll get lucky and get the tee time behind the 7 person “One club Challenge” crew.

Enjoyable course. Not in the best shape in terms of tee boxes and greens but a lot of effort seems to be going into course improvements. It’s a great 9 hole course to tighten up your game.

Course was in better shape than when I last played it, though the tee boxes were mostly dirt. A couple of the greens needed a little work, and they weren't holding my approach shots. But I will play here again. Best value for the price.
