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.

Greens slower than usual

After playing several rounds over the past few weeks the greens slowed down. Green side bunkers full of sand, but fairway bunkers practically no sand. Overall conditions very good.

Course is ok compared to others in the Atlanta area. Based on other reviews and course photos online, I was expecting a course in better condition and better overall design. Greens rolled well and were in better condition compared to any other components of the course. Fairways, tee boxes, and bunkers are in need of some TLC. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

Loved it

Found a steal in Golf Now. Haven’t played here since the 90s and not much has changed regarding amenities. BUT the course was great! Took me back decades of how much I enjoyed playing this course. Already set 2 more rounds over next few weeks. A little more drive than usual, but worth it if a nice round of golf is all you’re looking for.

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.

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.
