Royal Lakes Golf & Country Club
About
Royal Lakes Golf & Country Club is situated in the heart of South Hall County. The course sprawls across 150 acres of rolling countryside with natural wetlands comprising 19 of those acres. The golf course has a traditional Scottish links design that also incorporates a few mountain holes. It's a layout that will always keep you guessing. It may not be the most formidable golf course in the area, but it shouldn't be underestimated either. The course strikes a good balance between being forgiving enough for high handicappers and challenging enough for more advanced players. The par 3s are tough and the diverse par 4s come in all shapes and sizes. Royal Lakes Golf & C.C. is a shot maker's layout that requires accuracy and thoughtful strategy. The most memorable hole on the golf course is the par-5 11th, which features an intimidating island green.

Great
Got out at 330 on Sunday played in 3 hours. They said they were experiencing recovery conditions on greens. They were great. Little long but expected because of the drought. Course is in great shape. Very happy they have recovered this course.

Water damages
There were some water damages (many holes had muddy fairway) on the corses. Other than that, everything was great. It was good value for the money.

Good track slow greens
While the greens were in good shape, they were very slow. Last two rounds here the greens have been fuzzy and slow. Probably won't come back until the greens speed up.

Nice for the money!
Staff were nice enough, course was in good shape, bent grass greens were relatively smooth but not overly fast.Not an extremely difficult course but has 4-5 holes with water that will get your attention. Overall an very enjoyable round.

Just pure beauty!
What a joy it was to once again get to play this course!
Every hole is different and brings out your best, or worst. Very challenging and beautifully maintained. Greens are the best I’ve seen this year.

Royal Lakes
I played Royal Lakes today with a couple of friends. Even though we had rain just a day ago the course was in very good shape. There were some soggy spots around some of the greens and some wash out and standing water in a couple of the traps, but overall everything was in good shape. I wish more people would repair their ball marks but that seems to be a problem everywhere.
Although my group was playing slow due to a new golfer in our group, other golfers playing up to us were very considerate and we let them play through with as little delay as possible

Very disappointed
I play this course several times a year...along with many others in the area. I have never seen this course (greens specifically) in such bad conditions.
I mean it was awful. Practice area was rough, but I can handle that. Tee boxes are cut way too high in my opinion. The greens were slow... extremely slow. They were very wet and spongy. Fairways looked good though.
Cart men are always introverted and not very friendly, but Anybody who plays there knows that. Something serious is going on with those greens though. Wouldn’t pay $45 to play there...maybe $20. Kind of feel like they robbed me charging that much knowing the issues. Again just my opinion.
We're sorry that you feel that way and that you didn't enjoy your time with us.
Outside services gentleman were a little unfriendly and rude
I paid for 18 holes playing as a single at 430. I was greeted by cart attendants at cart walking to 1st tee. He asked if I was playing 9 or 18? Being I paid for 18 that's what I'm expecting to play. There wasnt anyone or there so to believe a single would take over 4 hours he insisted I be back with cart by 8. As I was bringing the cart back after loading up my clubs the gentleman is standing there with his chest bowed up looking at his watch with his wrist shoulder lever out in front of him arm extended out. This was at 20 min before 8 and I had been done for 15 min while loading up. And 2 or 3 more group were still on the course. I just thought it was exceptionally rude and uncalled for with the cart guys attitude from pulling in until leaving. Pro shop guy had great attitude and that was about the only one that looked like he cared and appreciated the business.
