Mystery Valley Golf Club
About
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.

The greens were horrendous. Every single green had More sand and dirt, little to no grass. Waste of time attempting to putt on them. Golf did a horrible job protecting the greens from this past January hard winter freeze. Due to the extreme slow pace of play and greens conditions. I chose to not play the last five holes, to taxing. No ranger in site the entire outing. The Pro Shop didn’t inform us of the green conditions when we checked in. Might I add the driving range was down as well. Wasted golf outing
Golf course has gotten worse
The course was a great value because I only paid $18. If I had to pay the full price, I would not play there. The course needs repair. The layout is fun and challenging, but desperately needs repair.
Great layout, terrible greens
Check ahead on the conditions of the greens before booking. I’ll give them credit for taking $10 off for the state of the greens
No grass on greens
I’ve played this course many times. I called to book a round and specifically asked if the green had been aerated, which the reply from staff was no, nothing going on. When we got to the course and drove in I noticed sand on the greens. So I bring up my conversation when book the round to the staff in the clubhouse. He stated that they weren’t aerated but the green just haven’t came in yet.when I tell you there was NO GRASS on the greens, I mean there was NO GRASS. They must’ve killed the grass on the greens. I have never seen green this bad, and I’ve played some goat tracts. Be warned, there is NO GRASS on the greens.
Poor greens
It's a shame that the greens are so bad. Layout of the course is good.
Horrendous Greens
My reason for such a marginal rating is simple. All 18 greens were horrible. You couldn’t get a decent putt going at all especially since there wasn’t any grass. Repairing the greens will definitely add value to this course.
Prioritize getting greens up to standard
Really enjoyed course layout. However the greens were in really bad shape. I believe they just didn’t put emphasis on making the greens a priority. When this is addressed, Mystery will improve there course rating.
Greens
Green are just patches of mud. I can only assume someone in DeKalb County has stolen all of the money available to maintain this course that they spent $10 million on last year. It used to be a budget friendly place to swing the sticks, now I wouldn’t let a cow graze on it.
Greens mostly unplayable
Apparently, the greens recently had herbicide applied. There was very little grass showing but a lot of sand. Hopefully the greens will recover soon. I do like the course.
Greens were the worst this side of town.
these were the worst greens I have ever played on
I did not enjoy my around of golf at all. I was forced to pair up with a couple of guys that I had to wait on before I teared off would not have been a problem if the course was busy, but there was no one else on the course except for a foursome that tee off in front of us never saw a group come out after us I mentioned that to the starter, but he insist that we go out together
MV Golf Course
Only thing to mention was diabolical hold locations on the back? Pins were put on side hills and putts that were barely moving at the hole would roll off the green??
