Type Public
Par 72
Length 6766 yards
Slope 125
Rating 71.7

Mystery Valley Golf Club encompasses 230 acres of gently rolling land that ranges from dense forests of towering Georgia pines to grassy meadows covered in acres of colorful wildflowers. Mystery Valley is known for both the beautiful scenery on the course itself and the stunning views from the elevated tees. There are two lakes and a pond that dot the course, coming into play on three holes. At just over 6,700 yards, the layout features some long holes but it will also test your short game with strategically placed bunkers around the fast, medium-sized greens. There is an interesting variety of holes including several winding par 5s and the watery and treacherous 15th hole, which is considered one of Atlanta's most challenging par 4s. The more challenging elements of Mystery Valley Golf Club are balanced by the generous, player-friendly fairways.

A Well Maintained Golf Course

Good value for money as the course is well maintained and the layout is challenging with good slope play and topographical changes.

Greens have slowed down over the last 3 months and they are less pristine but very playable.

Course has suffered the usual summer heat damage but is still in good shape.

No Carts

Had a 421 pm tee time. Arrived and was told there were no carts available and multiple people waiting ahead of us. Was told by club house attendant that alot of people came in without tee times and that is why the lack of carts. So what's the point of a tee time then?

Great round

Played early to beat rain. Rain night before course was in great shape. Some bunkers had water but that was ok due to heavy rain the night before.. fairway and greens in good shape. Will play again with no hesitation. They truly try to take care of course... great job to the employees...

The course is improving.

Didn’t play here for a year. It seems they are updating the courses, some bunkers need sands.

Overall it still a very good course and definitely playing again.

First time back

I grew up playing this course, and this was my first time back in over 30 years. The fairways and greens were in great shape. The bunkers need some attention. The pace of play was surprisingly efficient. Brought back great memories! Enjoyed the round immensely. Hope to come back again soon.
