Best conditions in a long time
The course has shown great improvement from the recent work done. Fairways have filled in nicely and greens were excellent. There were very few “burnt” areas on the greens, and they did not affect the roll on putts. Pleasure to play.

Love this course
I try to play this course during the week . The staff is nice and they are really accommodating. Course looks great . Greens have some sand on them but I think that’s just because of the time of year

It was good
Crowded day but pace was good. Tee boxes moved on many holes about 30 yards closer, I guess to let other ones recover. Fine shape for the cost. Would/will play here again.

Great Course! Challenging layout.
Had a great time at Hard Labor Creek. Would have given it 5 stars but the greens were covered in sand due to recent aeration. Would love to come back again!

Excellent layout
Tough track with an excellent layout about an hour east of Atlanta. Course was in good condition; there were some rough spots but it's been really hot. Sand could use some work. Greens weren't the fastest I've played but they rolled true. Would play again if I'm in the area. Great bang for the buck.

Nice Course
Saw a hot deal for this course. It’s was last minute so me and my partner said let’s try it out. This course was worth the drive. The lay out was challenging. There was 2 to 3 greens that was patchy. But overall the greens was rolling nice. I look forward to playing this course again
