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.

Faster and firmer Greens

Greens continue to be very fast, but the May dryness has made the greens firmer. Shots don’t stop after hitting the greens. Sand traps are still inconsistent. Some have a lot of sand; others have none. Overall the course is in very good shape considering the dryness.

Lightning fast greens. Excellent overall condition except for sand traps, which were inconsistent. Some had a lot of sand, others had little sand.

Solid course

Have played here many times. I often just walk on during the weekdays in the afternoon, but the course is way more crowded in these times of the virus. They are alternating tee times between walkers and riders, and the pace of play has slowed dramatically, as would be expected. The greens are improved and the bunkers are being renovated. I understand they should all be done in the next few weeks. That will help quite a bit.

Despite the spring weather the course was in relatively decent condition though the fairways were a little ragged. Greens were fast but true. Always enjoy playing MV.

Course is Trash!

I used to play this couse when I was a kid in the early 90's. Please tell me why its 2020 and l absolutely nothing has be revamped. The staff is not friendly, when you walk it its like your going back in time. They put sand in thenbunkers where you drive to make you yhink the course is nice, but when you start playing all the other bunkers are mud and water. I paid $47 to play at a course that is not worth more than $20.

DO NOT PLAY HERE UNLESS YOU HAVE A HOT DEAL. YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED.

Fast greens

Pace of play slow caused by frost delay and tournament delay. Greens remain fast, extremely so on downhill putts. Very good conditions for this time of year.

Wet conditions but fast greens

Wet conditions so even after draining (good) there was very little roll. Course played much longer than usual. Greens were very good and fast. Sand traps were saturated.

Good value for the price

Booked this course with a Hot deal price so it was worth what I paid. Nice day in January so it was busy as expected. Rained hard before so it was cart path only and the three some in front of my two some were not very good and playing from the tips. Made for a long day. Course was in good shape, looks like they've been working on the bunkers (real beach sand in some) clubhouse is in need of renovations, no cart girl is always a bummer.

The Greens keeper does not give a darn about the bunkers. Why don't you just fill them with dirt. They had water in the and no real sand. Come on guys.
