Cheap for a reason

Greens were the length of grass in your front yard, fairways were as thick as rough, and the rough was knee high unkept. We lost multiple balls that we saw land just because they were hidden in the thick. Every tee box was a dirt patch. We’ll make fun of our buddy who suggested this place forever.

Good from only the tee box

Greens are in dire need of repair and fairways are full of overgrown weeds and grass!

Par for the course at Candler

Course is a hit or miss on quality of fairways and greens. One green (hole 4) is not a "green" but a hole in the barren part of the fairway. Fairways are a little tall so more of rough than fairway,

Speed of play can be very poor and frustrating as you will see "fivesomes" playing a hole. As well as many course jumpers. They jump on at hole 2 or 5. Few groups adhere to the time limit per hole and play till they sink the put.

They really need to cut the rough and cleanup the course. The rough was way overgrown, losing balls just off the fairway is no fun. The tee boxes are a mess. And if you're going to let dogs on the course make the owners pick up the dog poop.

Good for money

Greens need to be fixed up. For the price, it is great. Michael is very kind as well.

Needs to be better

The layout is good for a short walking course. But the grounds are just not good at all. It is overgrown with weeds and bushes and several of the greens are just not really playable. Course has gone down since the last time I played it. The City can do better than this. Tee boxes are generally horrible also. Even for the cheap price you expect more than this. Do better.

Well-Spent

Not gonna' lie--the course is in rough shape. Candler's never been known for perfect conditioning, but the tee boxes were the worst I've seen them and they hadn't mown the fairways--shaggier than an old sheepdog. But listen, if you're going to Candler for pristine golf, you're missing the entire point. It's one of the best golf experiences in Atlanta. Just find a tuft of green, place your ball down, hit it, and follow it up and down Candler's graceful hills. 75 minutes well-spent.
