Soggy 9

Considering all of the rain and being the middle of Feb, the course was in pretty good shape! Greens are some of the best kept in the state! Great location and nice price for a quick 9.

Great layout

Would be 5 star but fairways dormant; tee box & greens in great shape for January. Really fun executive course layout: plenty of elevation change, forced carries, challenging bunkering. Staff was great, rentals decent enough, and practice facilities excellent. Will definitely return next quick trip to Atlanta.

Nice Walking Executive Course

Nice course in good shape. Greens are running pretty good but are very soft. I wish the people who play at this course would learn how to fix their ball marks. Overall this is an excellent little course thats easy to walk.

Good executive course

Enjoyed the course, green looked nice, but were a little slow. However do not play on Thursday evening behind the league players because they are extremely slow.

our local 9

for a beginner golfer there's no better place to play.

holes are short but as a beginner female golfer I can still use the driver on about half the holes. greens could use a little work but overall pretty solid. prepare to lose a few balls on hole 6. I think we sliced 3 into the screen and likely onto Glenwood Ave. :)

Golf Cars need some maintenance

Overall, I enjoy playing at Charlie Yates. It is a great course to go out and play a quick 9-holes, par 3/4 course. But their golf cars need some attention. My parking brake did not work well at all, so I had to be strategic about parking it where it wouldn't roll. I told the Golf Shop about it after my round.

What A Par 3 Course!

This course has BEAUTIFUL scenery!! You can tell quickly this course is kept in the most pristine condition year-round! The staff is friendly and very accommodating with last minute changes to reservations. The course can get backed up easily, but the marshalls usually keep the pace moving. A bit overpriced for 9 holes (reason for 4 stars) because I will pay it most times to get on the course. I love the morning tee times, and would come earlier if they were open at 7 am. Not a course that will wreck your energy for the rest of the day and a couple par 4s are reachable for me in 1 so it definitely boosts the self-esteem as well!! LOVE. THIS. COURSE!!
