special Sunday afternoon
Wonderful setting for a course that had been impacted by significant rainfall. Some of the tee boxes were devoid of grass or full ofweeds, but fairways and greens wre in remarkably good shape.
I'll be back!
Very unique layout and fun course to play. Fairways were in excellent conditions. Greens were true. Just a few spots (on one green for example) that kept me from giving all 5s. I'll definitely be back even though it's almost a 60 mile commute!
condition
other than needing water the course is in great shape. Folks there are very nice and professional. The course is very different depending on the tee box you play. Recommend for anyone.
WOW! Beautiful Course
Absolutely gorgeous course. First hole is definitely a tough starter but wow, what a nice course. Fairways, tee boxes and greens were all in great shape. I would definitely recommend this course to friends.
Great experience
The golf course was in great shape and was a "fair" test of golf. The traffic on the course was well managed. The price was excellent. All of these factors led to a thoroughy enjoyable experience. I will definitely play there again.
Wow! This course is the whole package!
Played here for the first time. This course is very challenging (lots of elevation changes, many sloping lies as you would expect from a course in the Georgia hills). From a scenic standpoint, this layout is just beautiful! There are some holes you can take advantage of, but there are some holes that you're glad to take bogey and move on. No. 1 is no doubt the hardest opening hole I've ever played. The course is in great shape, a couple of greens had some burnout on the edges, but great condition overall. Nice staff too. Can't wait to get back here!
Excellent shape, will return soon
After the first hole my group and I asked each other, why in the world haven't we played this course in a while? It got better after each hole. Nice course and friendly staff. Course was in pristine condition. We are putting it back in rotation as long as the price is right..
Great conditions
I have played here numerous times and course was in best condition I've ever seen.
Best Greens I've Played This Year
The Creek has the best greens I've played this year. Fairways good as well as are most tee boxes. When a tee box was not up to standard, they did not make you hit there anyway, they moved to a better location. Only complaint, over 1/2 the pin placements not where stated (loc #3). Forgot to tell staff, so if y'all reading, take note. Staff is EXCELLENT by the way. Very friendly and helpful, ask them questions about the course! Had a great roast beef sandwich at the turn.
Good course to play at if your beginner
This is a good course to play at if you are just a beginner because the holes are not that long. It's also good for experienced golfers as well
Hard Course
They should hand you a sleeve of balls just to get thru the first hole. The course is beautiful, we were met by two young foxes at the first hole and deer later on the back nine. Very challenging but, definitely worth a try. Had a good time!
Hard Labor Creek
Great course! This is a short course that requires shot shapes and strategy. Bombers are not at an advantage as the par 5's are reachable and par 4's are rarely over 375 yards. The elevation changes, sloping fairways, bunkers and length of the course make it a great place to spend a day.
Interesting layout
Do not pass uo this course, leave your driver at home and think smart fairways. Course layout is challenging. Play moved along with the Ranger watching each hole. Staff was excellent....however long drive 50 miles one way wish it could be closer in to Atlanta.
this course has a great layout
beautiful course out in the middle of a forest. scenic but can be difficult, greens were too hard but smooth.
This course was like a walk in the park.
Tree lined fairways and rolling terrain made this a very relaxing experience.
Love the layout!
This is just a beautiful layout , and really is a great golf course. It's early now, and the greens are in rough shape, with number 4 appearing dead.
When the grass starts to grow a bit more, take a ride out and enjoy this course!
Tough course
This is a very tough course. The staff was incredibly friendly. The greens are fast and in good condition. The tee boxes are in bad shape and the fairways are ok
Poor value for the money
This was the first time I played this course. For what I paid I feel that I didn't get a very good deal. Ball washers with no water in them, ball washers that were broken, bath rooms on the course were out of order. Bought four beers and they gave me no ice in cooler. Staff were friendly and assured me that my complaints would be sent higher up.
