Rating 70.7

Conveniently situated between Athens and Lawrenceville, the Providence Club has a scenic location stretching right along the Appalachee River that makes it feel much more like a getaway. The golf course has been considered one of northeast Georgia's best since opening in 1998. The layout takes advantage of the rolling terrain, incorporating elevated tees and uneven lies. The greens often feature slopes and undulations but they are fair and they roll true. They are also known for being excellently maintained. Mature trees frame many of the holes and there are several strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. Water doesn't come into play too often but the elevation changes will provide plenty of challenges. The golf course is player friendly enough to accommodate a wide range of skill levels with a few tricky holes to keep the round interesting.

The Providence Club

I've played this course several times over the years and have always enjoyed it. The staff is generally friendly, and we are usually able to go without being paired with anyone else. Pace of play is usually great- this time we had no one in front or behind us and were able to play at our own pace, which is nice. I'm hesitant to give it a good review, as selfishly I don't want others playing here! Seriously, to me it is well worth the money.

Very playable

This is one of the few courses not overwhelmed with players and the staff are very accommodating. Practice green has been ravaged by disease but the coarse greens are good with numbers 1and 12 a little rough. Fairways are very good and tees are OK. A good course that looks easy but can be tricky if not careful.

As described by other reviews

I read other reviews of this course before going out last Friday for the first time, and they were accurate. The fairways and greens have likely not been watered this season.

The fairways play like concrete and it was not uncommon to get a 10ft+ bounce off the drive. Tee boxes were hard as rock and almost impossible to drive a long tee into, it took me multiple attempts to tee a ball up. The greens were okay and the only thing it seems they water. But even those were incredibly patchy on some holes.

Lastly, the folks working in the pro shop were hardly friendly, especially given that I was up at 8am on a Friday to play their course. This course desperately needs some more investment. It is hardly worth the hot deal price and will likely end up like Pine Hills if more care isn't put into the course.

Greens in really bad shape

Unsatisfied with greens being so terrible. I dont understand why they cant just list or tell people the greens are bad. Be honest for crying out loud. Price it cheaper and let your customers know. Then the choice is ours. If they call it "greens fees" then people shouldn't pay anything. Greens were bad and that's being nice. Now the rest of the course was nice. Its gonna be a long time for those greens to grow. Maybe see ya in a year or two providence
