Mystery Valley Golf Club

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.

It's a shame that the greens are so bad. Layout of the course is good.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

The greens were in really bad shape and cost us at least 10 strokes per player. They were like ashpalt

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??

Fairway conditions were great but green conditions could not be worse. Greens felt like you were putting on dirt that were spray painted green. Tee boxes were overall in decent condition but there were a few that were practically all dirt

Just dropping a review to make anyone playing after 4/20/2025 aware of the greens. I am not sure what happened and how long it will take to recover but we were not made aware of the fact that every inch of every green is basically gone. The fairways were running pretty fast but each and every green was just unplayable. Putting was somewhere between cement and a game of Plinko. We love this course and will return, just not until the greens have grass on them again.

This course is such a great layout and such a good deal, but it stops there. After completely renovating their greens one year ago, as of today, they are unplayable and probably the worst greens in the greater Atlanta area. Even though I’ve played this course more than anything else in the area, I will not be returning.

Furthermore, they completely mismanage their tee sheets on the weekend. They decided that Saturday is a good day for their men’s league to play. This leads to additional groups being added and players starting on the back nine, so they need to make the turn right at the busiest part of the day.
